Your kid will look great in that "KPop Demon Hunters" costume. But is it worth the spend?
Two new polls on Halloween spending just landed. And it's not a cheap holiday, especially for parents.
One poll found the average person who celebrates will spend $289. But that includes parents AND non-parents.
If you're celebrating without kids, it's $193. But the average parent will shell out 445 BUCKS.
Here's a quick breakdown of that $289 average, and where the money goes:
1. $58 on costumes
2. $57 on decorations
3. $51 on party supplies
4. $51 on tickets for things like haunted houses
5. $50 on candy for trick-or-treaters
6. $23 on other stuff
A separate poll pegged the total spend at $296, so right around 300 bucks. That one found we'll spend $33 on costumes for our PETS this year.
