When Does Halloween Candy Go on Sale?

Halloween candy usually goes on sale on November 1, when retailers mark down seasonal sweets to clear shelves for Thanksgiving and Christmas merchandise.

Most candy, stored in a cool and dry place, will last for a year. So this is a great time to stock up for next Halloween. Or you can use these deals to satisfy your sweet tooth at a low price.

Does Spirit Halloween Have Sales After Halloween?

Yes, Spirit Halloween stores have sales after Halloween to get rid of their stock. Some people report seeing 50 percent off on costumes and decorations starting on November 1.

Spirit Halloween is a seasonal pop-up chain that deals in Halloween products. They open in rented retail space a few months before Halloween, but close in early November. If you get any good deals on costumes during their clearance sale, you probably won't have an occasion to use your purchases until next year.
