But for many parents, the costs associated with this much-loved occasion can be downright frightful. In fact, according to the National Retail Federation, Americans will spend an average of $72 on Halloween this year, which comes to $7 billion in spending nationwide. With so many ghoulish get-togethers taking place, many parents are looking for ways to stretch their dollars without missing out on any of the fun.
The money saving experts at Kmart, the one-stop shop for Halloween family needs, offer these tips to help you enjoy "More Thrills" this season.

There are many ways to celebrate without emptying your pocketbook. Invite friends over for a Halloween potluck and encourage each guest to bring a dish to share with a spooky name. Rent or download classic horror films for an after-dinner movie marathon everyone will enjoy. Make sure your home is adorned with the most fearsome decorations with light up pumpkins for the porch, inflatables for the front yard and ghoulish decals for the walls.
Save time and avoid the headache of running around town looking for the perfect costume by shopping online.
