Real talk: Goodwill is the only store my family uses to shop for Halloween.

They're fantastic for picking up your little one’s trick or treating pail.  They are always good quality and way cheaper than other stores. And the selection on Halloween decorations is always super unique and fun so you’ll always have decorations that no one else does.

The costume selection is fantastic. Not everyone realizes this, but Goodwill isn't just resale. They have plenty of new merchandise, including pre-packaged costumes and Halloween makeup. Of course, if you want to piece together a costume, they have a huge selection to mix and match, too.

I went as my wife for Halloween a couple years ago so I picked up this wedding dress so I can go as my wife again. (But this time as my own bride!  Weird, I know.)
They have great seasonal decor, too. My wife and I love candles and they even had Halloween-themed candles. As I’ve said before, I collect fun glasses and they had a couple of Halloween wine glasses to add to my collection.

I even picked up a mask and stuffed animal for my daughter Charlotte to get her ready for her first Halloween where she can actually walk up to a door and trick or treat.
And final pro tip: Don’t waste your money on a pumpkin carving kit from another store because Goodwill has them brand new and way less expensive than anywhere else.
