Halloween Finds for $10 and Under

Target has a Halloween decorated Glow-In-The-Dark Soft Soap and ghosts and Jack-O-Lanterns decorated toothpastes in "Wicked Watermelon", which are a fun and festive way to encourage kids to wash their hands and brush their teeth.

Walmart has the following and you can order online and have shipped to your local store to pick up for free.

Halloween Spider Chandlier for $4.44  
I would have called it a "haunted" chandelier as there as the only spidery thing about it is the webs, but an easy way to creep up a room and as it is made out of cardstock, it should be easy to disassemble and store for next year.

 Halloween Fridge Door Cover - $7.98
You can frighten up a fridge with this plastic overlay full of ghastly contents.  (Downside it is not magnetic so you have to tape it up).

 Inflatable Ring Toss Spider Game for $6.97
This cute fella that can be used for a decoration is double duty as it is also a ring toss game











Bloody Weapons Garland for $8.97
I love this unique idea and as it is made out of flat plastic, it would be easy to store (but this might also be an idea to DIY and make it more 3D, especially if you had two trees outside and could string a clothesline between them and also add some bloody looking clothing).


Above all, don't forget Dollar Tree, where everything is $1.

Items available vary from store to store, but if you are looking to buy  in bulk (usually a case of 36 items) you can order most of the items online at Dollar Tree.
 
Thanks for stopping by and hope to see your tomorrow. Be sure to check out the other participants in the countdown by clicking the link below.

In today's tough economic times, spending money on arts, cultural events and going to museums are usually one of the first items to go.   But thanks to an initiative by Target, there are opportunities attend over 2,200 events and 120 museums for either free or reduced prices.

When my son was younger we visited the Indianapolis Children's Museum several times over the years and if I carted off a friend or two of his along, it got to be very pricey, but worth it for all of the amazing activities and exhibits for pre-schoolers up to Jr. High aged kids, such the play area pictured above, an area where they can pretend to dig for dinosaurs or visit a Pharaohs tomb, learn about other cultures through artifacts and exhibits (such as sit in a rickshaw, pictured below) or play a scientist in the hands-on science gallery.

The current cost for the Indianapolis Children's Museum where the normal admission prices are as follows:

	Youth (ages 2–17)	$10.50
	Adult (ages 18–59)	$15.50
	Senior (60+)	$14.50

But with Target Free Family Night, admission on the first Thursday of each month from 4 p.m.- 8 pm is free!
