Creative Ways to Celebrate Together
ATLANTA, GA / ACCESS Newswire / October 26, 2026 / Lifestyle expert and TV host Kathy Buccio addresses the challenge of planning a memorable Halloween celebration when decorations, refreshments and activities can quickly strain the household budget. With Halloween falling on a Saturday this year, she presents practical ways to make the most of the full weekend while keeping preparations manageable and costs under control.
ADD A PERSONAL TOUCH TO HALLOWEEN
Do not be scared to go all out for Halloween with Cricut Joy Xtra and Cricut Direct-to-Film Transfers. From an iron-on ghostly sweatshirt and vinyl-decorated Halloween treat jars to paper ghost portraits and punch needle coasters, Cricut makes it easy to create personalized Halloween projects without the hassle. I love how each project can feel personal, whether decorating the house, getting costumes ready or adding some spooky details to a Halloween party. For more information, visit cricut.com.
GET THE WHOLE FAMILY INVOLVED
Halloween has become so much more than a one-night celebration for pets and pet parents, with costumes, family photos, parties and even trick-or-treating. PetSmart’s 2026 Thrills & Chills collection has the costumes, toys and treats for big celebrations and bigger personalities. There are some adorable costume options, fun Halloween toys and even seasonal treats like pumpkin cookies and mummy meat sticks. So, the four-legged trick-or-treaters can definitely join the party!

A HALLOWEEN TREAT
Halloween is all about treats and a little mystery, and SUNNYD® is getting in on the fun with SpookyD, a limited-edition mystery flavor available exclusively at Walmart. SpookyD comes in an 18-count pack of single-serve bottles, making it a fun, easy treat to hand out to trick-or-treaters or have on hand for Halloween parties and celebrations. And there is an added twist: SUNNYD is not revealing the flavor! Kids and families can taste it and make their own guesses. Plus, the bottles come in eye-catching Halloween packaging that makes them feel right at home in the trick-or-treat bowl. For more information, visit sunnyd.com.
STOCK UP ON EVERYTHING
Halloween usually means a few extra stops, whether picking up candy, grabbing party snacks or maybe filling up for a fall road trip. With Circle K’s redesigned Inner Circle Rewards program, members can now make each stop more rewarding. Every qualifying purchase earns a “Visit,” and Visits can be redeemed for a quick treat or a $3, $4 or $5 meal deal, or saved for as much as one dollar off per gallon of gas. Circle K’s Circle Rewards is free to join, and through the end of October, members can score extra savings at the pump. For more information, visit www.circlek.com.
