Ask the Readers: What Are Your Money-Saving Halloween Hacks?

Editor's Note: Congratulations to Karen J., Karen L., and Angela for winning this week's contest!

While it isn't a retail holiday, Halloween can get really expensive if you go out and buy any costumes, decor, and candy you may want to celebrate this spooky day. It's almost always cheaper to get crafty with costumes and decorations, shop outside the Halloween section — or even shop outside the Halloween season.

What are your money-saving Halloween hacks? Have you ever put together a costume from scratch? Have you ever hosted a Halloween party? If so, what did you do to keep costs low?
