Walmart: 50% Halloween and Harvest! Check the pumpkins too!

I did a quick run to Walmart this morning, hoping to score some $1 pumpkins.  Unfortunately they only had the weird pumpkins left.  I’m sure the seeds would taste the same, but I passed on them.

The candy was pretty well sold out too.  I don’t know if people just bought more or they didn’t get as much stock this year.  Anyway, this is definitely the time to get Halloween decor and even Thanksgiving decor at a nice discount.

I can’t believe how fast they were replacing Halloween with Christmas.  I guess it’s officially Christmas season … no time for Thanksgiving!  Although it is nice to get Thanksgiving decor at a huge discount BEFORE the holiday.

I didn’t check as much stuff as I would have liked to this morning.  I may go back later today and see if I can find any additional markdowns.  I did find some Looney Tunes backpacks that scanned $2.50.  I didn’t buy any though.  I just bought some bananas this morning.

But trying to get out of that store with my 96¢ worth of bananas wasn’t easy this morning.  The first self-checkout that I went to kept declining my bank card.  Of course, they don’t accept cash at the self-checkouts anymore.  So I went to the next one and tried again, no luck.  The employee at self-checkout tried to get the transaction to go through, but it still wouldn’t.  She said, it happens a lot at those registers.  She was really nice and chatty this morning.  She rang up the bananas at her register and I finally left.

Happy shopping!
