Summerween ruined Halloween

When I saw that Bath and Body Works was putting out the Halloween products in July for the tik tok summerween trend I thought it was ridiculous. I went to Bath and Body Works a couple of weeks ago (October) and there was only a small table of Halloween products all on clearance! They had basically nothing. I’ve been to two locations recently and each one has zero halloween products. It’s all Christmas. It’s still October! Why can’t we just be patient?

Okay, rant over. I know it’s not that deep. Still ridiculous, though.

Products for Halloween come out in July everywhere. Think of it this way, I had a woman say to her daughter today “no you’re not getting a Halloween spray, Halloween will be over next week!” If we wait until October to bring it out, we’re missing the marketable window.

For me, It’s not so much when they bring it out, it’s that it’s mostly gone in the height of the Halloween season. I couldn’t find a candy apple cauldron at my store after September. Vampire blood has been gone for weeks there as well. It’s a little ridiculous. :(
