I read an article online about halloween. This article talked about how people spend so much time and money on halloween. Some people spend hundreds, maybe even thousands of dollars every year just for parties, costumes, decorating, or just to have halloween spirit. Alot of people do this for many holidays, but halloween is one of the biggest spending holidays on parties/decorations, etc. costumes are even expensive. $40-$60 plus accesories??? thats alot. and its only for one night. cause you cant be the same thing 2 years in a row.. well you can. but who really wants to? its crazy how much money people spend these days. and how much people could be saving if they didnt spend all there money on things that wont be needed in the future, or if they arent even gonna touch it again. after reading this article i realized that why waste your money on things for the present. when you can buy things that will be useful in the present and future.
