$5 Movie Bin at Walmart

If you are looking to save some money, but you'd like to be entertained, now is the time to shop at Walmart.  Currently, they are running a $5 movie special.  You can get many different DVDs for just $5 a piece.  And no, I am not talking about the crummy movies no one wants to watch.  Now is the time to stock up on some favorites.

Some of the horror movies now available for $5 on DVD at Walmart are:

The Shining
Halloween
Poltergeist
Saw
Scream
Scream 2
Jeepers Creepers 1 & 2 set

So if you would like to watch some good horror movies this year for Halloween at a low price, you need to visit Walmart.  I am sure the best movies are going fast!

There are also some family favorites like Milo & Otis and The Sandlot, but honestly, I did not pay as much attention to them.  After all, Halloween is coming up and you need to stock up on your scary movies.

Dress for Halloween with No Money and No Effort


Spending as little money as possible at Halloween is always a great goal.  However, sometimes it can be tough doing just that.  How can you have a creative costume without much money?  Even better, how can you create a costume without putting much effort into it?

The simple answer is: create a '90s Gen X outfit this year for Halloween.  I know what you are thinking... the '80s were so much more fun!  Well, sure they were.  They were also more expensive.  People took the time to have nice hair and cute outfits.  If you are broke, you need to go with a grunge look.  Since you are broke, you will also not have a tough time looking bummed out or full of angst.  You are probably already feeling that way, except unlike the 1990s, your feelings are now totally justified.  Dealing with this economy will bring anyone down!

So check out: Creating Your Own 1990s Halloween Costume.  It features tips and some YouTube videos from the past that might just inspire you.
