Six days before the good ship, Halloween, sets sail.

Erica, our sailor girl, is ready to let you board if you have your costume.

Are you ready for the journey? Will you be joining us for trick or treating, costume parties, getting together with friends, meeting new people, or building a special family memories??

Well, here’s one way to gauge your readiness to set sail aboard the Halloween ship. Answer this simple question:

Do you have your costume ready???

So many people wait until the last minute to get their Halloween costumes together. Don’t be one of them this year. Well, maybe it’s a bit late to say this since you’ve only got 5 days left. If you haven’t got your costume ready to go by now, you are dangerously close to being that last minute person I always feel sorry for. Here’s why:

1. The crowds in the costume shops are ridiculous in the final days. They are all just as bugged, panicked, and frustrated as you are, creating a wonderful store environment. Not to mention no room to move, long lines, and strangers bumping into you.
2. The costume idea or pieces you need just might be sold out. People are regularly shocked that this happens, but it’s unavoidable.
3. You have no good answer to your friends and co-workers when the ask what you are going to be this year. A severe blow to your pride.
4. You risk damaging your relationship with your girlfriend, whom you’ve told over and over that you have a great costume planned.
5. The risk of settling for some last-minute, lame idea is growing larger with each  passing moment. Get your sheet and scissors ready, you’ll probably end up being a ghost.

So there you have it. Get your costume together and get on board the good ship Halloween before she sets sail in 5 short days.

All aboard!!!
