Hello everyone! How was your weekend, any nice wins to report? A few small wins over the last week for me of a Cameron Diaz DVD duo from a SimpleSaver competition on facebook; a children’s baking book from a twitter comp and a Lady Bug night light from a blog competition. I am going to squirrel the book away for my eldest daughter, so that’s another nice gift won and added to the present pile. Have you started comping for Christmas yet, or do you like to leave it until after the Halloween festivities are over? I know a lot of people can’t get excited about the Christmas period until November or later, but I feel the need to get ahead early and as organised as I can during October, before work, school and social activism take over completely!
Do you enjoy the Halloween season – maybe getting dressed up, going trick or treating or hosting a spooky party? As a family Halloween isn’t usually that important for us, but the girls do usually go to the Halloween disco at school and get all dressed up for the occasion. My eldest won’t be going this year unfortunately as she is having her tonsils out on Friday poor thing – hopefully we can have a few treats for her at home to make her not feel so left out. I am sure we will rent a few spooky movies and have some scary treats at home – nothing too blood-curdling though!
If you like to embrace the Halloween season and fancy getting your hand on £50 to spend on dressing up outfits, party supplies or food then why not enter our latest competition exclusive to The PrizeFinder members! Log into your account and leave me a comment below letting me know what you are up to over Halloween and you could be bagging yourself a £50 voucher to spend with Asda. You could get a couple of dressing up outfits for the little ones, stock up on spooky party essentials, or just spend it on the weekly shop – the choice is yours! One entry per person please and please remember that comments are moderated and as such won’t appear immediately. Entries close at 23:59 on Sunday 18th October 2015 and one lucky winner will be drawn at random shortly afterwards.
Happy comping everyone, and lots of Lucky dust to you all!

Last year we really didn't enjoy it with older children coming round and being really aggressive - think teenagers taller than me - it was quite scary. So this year, we're going out to the pub for supper and will hopefully miss them.
I won't be doing anything
I won't be doing anything myself but I always make sure I have plenty of change for the local children "Happy Halloween"ing (sorry, it's NOT "trick or treat") and as it's a Saturday I'll be able to make a few little treats to give alongside the money.

Well I already have my pumpkin - I won't carve its scary face until closer to the date though - i've done that before and it rotted - looked great though, smelled foul. So this year, my mum is throwing a halloween spook fest. So we all dress up - I'm going as a vampire. M step daughter will be a scary school girl - no change there!! My other half? He will probably be a scary zombie - no change there either!! I've been looking up some spooky ideas - check this one out - use plastic gloves as sweet bags for trick or treaters!! Looks very scary indeed :) x
