How to get money back on all your Halloween shopping this October…
I am sooooo excited about Halloween this year. It’s always been the kids favourite holiday, and this time round we’ll be in our own home in a brand new neighbourhood.
I plan to decorate big time this year. It’s the perfect way to get to know people in our local area so we’ll have a bit of an open house theme going on. I’m also going to batch-cook cookies for the trick or treaters, and make sure we have plenty of interest at our front door to give parents and kids a fright.
Searching around for ideas on the internet I love this set-up by atmosfx, their stuff is just one step beyond anything we’re used to here in the UK. With projectors that cast super eerie apparitions on your windows, to their adorable singing pumpkins - this is how to do Halloween in style.
If you’re planning on going all-out this year, it’s worth checking in with Swagbucks before you buy anything. They’ve increased cash back at a big group of their Halloween-related stores, so you can earn cash back while getting costumes, decorations, and more for the end of the month. The “sale” is good until 31st October so there’s plenty of time to check out all their partners and snap up some deals.
What’s Swagbucks? *I hear you ask*
A quick search on this blog will tell you all you need to know, but essentially it’s a cashback and reward site that awards you with points (SB) for all manner of things internet-related. Totally free, you can get SB for simply searching the internet, watching videos, and taking surveys. There’s also plenty of ways to bump up those SB by checking out some of their partner sites, or simply shopping with a bunch of well-known retailers through the Swagbucks site.
Once you’ve accrued enough points, you can redeem them for vouchers (Amazon, Argos, Debenhams to name but a few), or if it’s cold hard cash you’re after, convert those SB into PayPal cash, or prepaid Mastercards. I’ve earned well over £3000 over the past year and cannot recommend it enough - Prepare to get totally addicted!
Better still, if you sign up via me, and spend at least £25 by the end of October, you’ll get a extra 200 SB towards that all-important first gift card - AND another 300 SB if you accrue 300 SB before November 1st (trust me, you’ll smash that easily). That’s a total of 500 SB for simply becoming my referral and spending a little time on the site over the next month! Click here to get started.
