Oh how I would love to be in the USA! Here in England we will not see anything for a while yet.
I've been surfing the internet looking at what to add to my decorations this year. There's a USA site that ship globally so I will be ordering a few items from there this year!

I too have started seeing Halloween stuff around my wife and I bought some stuff at Home Goods I will have to post pics of soon! I can't believe it's already here again.

We've just bought our first decoration of this year. My wife went to Makro (it's a wholesale place here in England) today & bought a orange halloween candle. It's pretty cool though as it's made of real wax but battery operated!
It was in a sale, so obviously last years stock. It's just a little something extra to go on the mantle.

Tsk tsk! Living here your whole life and never been to Halloween Club and Halloween Town.

Sigh... I used to go to Borders to buy all my Halloween mags. Good thing we have a lot of magazine stands around here.

You can find a lot of Halloween magazines in the supermarkets.

There's a retro themed store in Half Moon Bay CA. that sells all kinds of candy and toys that you may have thought didn't get made any more.
They have Halloween goodies out now and I picked up a nifty garland and a mercury glass (well, plastic) skull that changes color, when I went into town today!

Andy, that looks like Crystal Skull from the Indiana Jones' 4th film!

Andy, that skull's pretty cool!
iHaunt, that comment just made me LOL. I happened to be drinking at the time, fortunately the keyboard's fine.

Around these parts we call that an ASNR (pronounced 'Asner'). It's an acronym that stands for 'Acute Spontaneous Nasal Reflux'. Basically, it's when you laugh so hard, whatever you are drinking or eating erupts through your nose. Warning: Don't do this after eating chili peppers.

I would imagine that would be quite horrible if eating chili peppers!

Picked up the new magazine from the Queen of Halloween this morning at the grocery store.
