Halloween at Home Made Possible by Dollar General  

The Brownies decided no matter what we will make the best of Halloween this year. You can do the same! Whether you are wanting to celebrate indoors or outdoors Dollar General has everything to meet your needs. I always know I can shop at Dollar General and save but I saved EVEN MORE by downloading the DG App. I used several digital coupons including the Saturday $5 OFF $25. In October, they also several amazing candy digital coupons on variety packs. There also are some great coupons on the DG App for name brand candy favorites like Hershey’s and Reese’s. I used the M&M coupon and was able to get some yummy candy at a discounted price!

My boys always love a good movie night. So this year we are doing a movie/game night to celebrate safely. I also picked up some items from Dollar General to do a Halloween theme edible craft with the kids.
