Huh?

No one came to my house last night. I didn't see any trick-o-treaters in the the neighborhood, and I was left with a bunch of pringles that I do not know what to do with. (I was giving out pringles because I thought chips are more exciting when you already have a bag full of candy.) Luckily I didn't buy that many, but am now confused with what the kids in my neighborhood do on Halloween.

I thought, at least I can go to the Halloween clearance sale after Halloween.

I went to Target this morning thinking I can snag some cheap candy. 

I wait for these sales after every major holiday. (I especially love the after Christmas sale. It may have to do with the fact that I love wrapping paper, boxes, and gift bags.) Everything is usually marked down 50%. I would then proceed to put everything in my cart, and later would have to convince myself that I didn't need 99.9% of what was in my cart. It is an internal battle that I looked forward to every year.

When I got to Target I saw that the candies were only marked down 30%. What?! Why?! That's not even cheap at all! It's only a few cents cheaper than the sale price on Halloween day. 

I was heartbroken. I was devastate. I was even confused because everyone was buying a cartful of candy when it wasn't even that cheap.

Wow, I sound like a complete cheap-o. It's just that I don't really eat candy, but when it's really cheap, I can't resist having a few piece of candy. I guess I can survive without it.

Oh recession, what have you done to the economy?
