    Was in tescos today in Belfast and picked up a few things for the classroom. Cat Costumes down to £3, witches costume - Gold and black - down to £3, Vampire costumes down to £3 and a few wee decorations from 25p - £1.

    Had to laugh though they had the Harribo tubs of sweets and another tub of sweets in the Halloween clearance section - yet they were still being sold full price.

    Lots of lovely Halloween crafty bits and stickers etc at my Waitrose - also all the specially packaged chocolate, sweets, crisps etc half price.

    If I was minded to have a orange, black and white themed Christmas, I could have saved a lot on choccie hanging decorations, (incl Lindt ghosts :)), orange tablecloths, paper napkins etc. I'm not so I just bought a certain number of Scream Eggs......
