Halloween is still five weeks away and sales are well ahead of this time last year.
We are chasing a minimum of 25% year on year growth from the season this year. We set goals for every season.
There is something to be said for going out early with a season, especially one that many other retailers usually come late to.
Halloween is fun and easy. At this time in the season most purchases are impulse – a welcome addition to the basket.
I know of some newsagents who don’t like the season, saying it’s American (which it’s not) and that it won;t work (it usually does). This is a fun season, perfect for warming he business up in the run home to Christmas.
We are trying a small Halloween order this year and are probably going to put it out some time next week.
We hope this will work as well.

Hi Mark just wondering what happens to the unsold seasonal stocks, like the Halloween stocks, do u just keep them for next year? I know with Xmas cards suppliers can take them back, not sure about other stuffs.
