Stop Spending So Much on Halloween
Halloween used to be a fun night of trick-or-treating. Now it’s a weeks-long marathon of trunk-or-treats, school costume parades, haunted houses, and elaborate decorations you put up one weekend at a time. Parents are exhausted. Social media FOMO has run amok. But lo and behold, there may be a simpler solution than you think: just say no. No to events, no to extra decorations, no to stuff that adds stress to your life. Is all this holiday creep a sign of the times, or have we just forgotten how to keep things simple?
