$5 Billion Spent on Halloween...
I just heard on the news today that Americans are expected to spend $5 billion on halloween this year. That's almost double what was spent last year. It works out to about $60 a person. So, let's see.
My dad and I went to a craft fair and we both bought some halloween decorations. Ok, a few dollars spent there. I already have some candy, although it seems to be disappearing. Of course, I'll have to spend more there. Things are adding up.
Finally, I have to work on a costume and possibly a couple of small gifts. Hey, wait a minute. It looks like I'll be spending more than $60! I'll have to call the news people and tell them it'll be five billion plus.
Why did I bother to add all this stuff up? I don't want to know how much I spend on halloween. Oh well, I'm doing my bit for the economy. How about you?
