Spirit of Halloween?
9/8/2017 at 3:58 PM

Anyone know if we're getting Spirit this year or if it's just going to be Halloween Alley again? Just curious.

Halloween alley

Yes, Halloween alley is open in the old Krevco building. I'm just wondering if we're also getting a Spirit of Halloween this year

Can confirm. It will not be here

This year. Winnipeg will be the closest location. For costumes, Brandon has Halloween Alley, Direct Liquidation, Wal Mart, and Canadian Tire( CT usually has a small mostly overpriced amount),. Not sure about anywhere else.

Krevco closed some time ago - not sure of exact time frame but I would say back in the spring?? Maybe another eBrandonite can confirm when exactly it closed.

I have to agree. Spirit Halloween has way better children costumes. I guess we're taking a Winnipeg trip !

Winners

Pretty decent selection (and very reasonable prices) at Winners. $23 for the comparable costume we almost bought elsewhere for $40

That still seems expensive to me, LOL. I usually peruse the "gentle used" rack at VV and dig through stuff at home, sometimes find stuff at the dollar store... and dress all 4 kids for under $30!! I couldn't imagine spending even $23x4kids!!
