Here in TX we haven't had too much yet... I've looked everywhere and so far have only found some things at Hallmark and Party City. I'm thinking once school is back the Skulls and Pumpkins will come out full force

I have been there a few times (when I lived in S. Cal) and it's pretty impressive, I bought a fogger there and other assorted goodies.

Just nabbed Taste of Home's 2011 Halloween book at my Kroger store. I think they must have just put it out today--

I love this series and have been buying it for several years. They have Halloween recipes in the front, fall harvest in the mid-section, and costume and craft ideas in the back.

You don't have to subscribe to get the Halloween issue. It will be on sale from now until the end of October at supermarkets around the country.

You know, I started seeing Paula Dean's Christmas Baking magazine in July! I have looked through it, and it really is about nothing but baking. I can understand why people might need to start making Christmas crafts in the summertime, but baking? Really?

I was just at Lowe's and they had some Halloween stuff out. Not a lot in volume, but there were a lot of different things. I really didn't expect that! There were welcome mats, candy corn lights, skeletons, pumpkin carving sets, two motion-activated animated figures (witch with caldron and a ghost), animated mummy arm, and a few other things!
