Halloween on a Budget: Trick-or-Treat Without the Candy Sticker Shock

Halloween should be fun, not stressful. But let’s be honest, the price of trick-or-treat candy this year almost had me turning off the porch light and being that house.

The good news? There’s a budget-friendly hack that keeps the kids happy, the neighbors smiling, and your wallet intact.

The $10 Trick-or-Treat Hack

At Sam’s Club, I found the Member’s Mark 100-count Fruit Snack Box for just eleven dollars. Yes, eleven. That means you can fill a bowl, hand out full-size bags, and still stay on budget. Families don’t have to skip out on the fun to save money.

Tested for “Safety”

Of course, I had to test one myself, you know, just to make sure it wasn’t nasty or hiding ghoulish things. Totally for the kids, not because I wanted a snack. Spoiler alert: they’re good!

Snazzy Extras

Want to go the extra mile? Grab the 42-count Member’s Mark Variety Chip Pack. Or, if you’re feeling festive, Sam’s Club even has a Halloween-themed version of the fruit chews. It’s budget-friendly, themed, and kid-approved.

The Takeaway

Halloween doesn’t have to break the bank. With a little strategy (and a Sam's Club Membership), you can join the fun, save money, and still keep your porch light shining bright.
