Halloween sales are picking up as retailers prepare for the busiest shopping weeks of the season. Target already has limited-time offers on costumes, decorations, candy and pet costumes, while Amazon, Walmart and Target have announced larger deal events for early October.

Best Target Halloween deals right now
Target currently has the clearest retailer-maintained list of active Halloween promotions. These are the offers that stand out as of September 18.
Up to 50% off costumes, décor and party supplies
The broadest current promotion covers select Halloween costumes, decorations and party supplies online. It expires September 19, so availability may be limited near the end of the offer. Because the discount is “up to” 50%, check the price on each eligible item rather than expecting the full discount across the category.
Buy one, get one 50% off Halloween candy
Target is offering buy-one-get-one-50%-off promotions on select candy from brands including M&M’s, Reese’s, Brach’s and Nerds. This can be useful for party bowls or early trick-or-treat preparation, but compare the package weight because bag sizes vary. The current offers expire September 19.
Up to 30% off pet costumes
Select pet costumes are discounted by up to 30% online through September 19. Measure around the pet’s chest and neck and compare those measurements with the product’s size chart before ordering. A discount is not worthwhile if the costume restricts movement or cannot be returned after being tried on.
$15 Marvel children’s costumes
Select Marvel costumes are listed at $15 through October 3. One current example is the Spider-Man toddler costume, reduced from $20 when checked. Sizes and characters included in the promotion may change.
Low-price Hyde & EEK! décor
Not every good value needs a percentage-off label. Target’s 2026 Hyde & EEK! collection includes several inexpensive pieces that can fill smaller spaces without requiring a large seasonal budget. Current examples include:
- Three-piece ceramic ghost accent set — $5
- Small terracotta ghost sculpture — $5
- 20-inch plush spider — $5
- 60-count orange or purple LED fairy lights — $10
- 10-inch ghost blow mold — $10
- Five-foot poseable skeleton — $25
These are regular-price value picks rather than advertised markdowns. Prices were visible on Target’s Hyde & EEK! Halloween décor page when this article was checked.
Upcoming Halloween sale dates
Three major deal events arrive within the same week in October. The overlapping dates make it easier to compare a saved item at multiple retailers before buying.
Walmart: October 5
Walmart’s week-long October deals event begins October 5. Current reporting says the event will include discounts of up to 50% on home products, up to 40% on fashion and technology, and up to 30% on toys. Walmart has not published a complete Halloween-specific item list yet, so those figures should not be read as guaranteed Halloween discounts.
The most relevant departments to check will be decorations, costumes, candy and party supplies. Set your local store before comparing prices because pickup availability and store pricing can differ.
Amazon Prime Big Deal Days: October 6–7
Amazon Prime Big Deal Days runs October 6–7. The event is for Prime members, and current previews mention discounts on holiday décor. Halloween items are expected to be included, but the strongest product-level offers will not be clear until the event begins.
For now, save any lights, projectors, fog machines or smaller decorations you are considering. Recording the September price will make it easier to recognize a genuine reduction in October instead of relying only on the crossed-out price.

Target Circle Deal Days: October 6–7
Target Circle Deal Days also runs October 6–7. Announced discounts include up to 40% across categories such as home décor, apparel and toys. Target Circle 360 members receive early access on October 5.
Target Circle is free, but Circle 360 is a paid membership. Check the promotion details before describing a price as broadly available. The current September Halloween offers may also be replaced by different Circle deals before the October event.

Home Depot Halloween deals and popular 2026 props
Home Depot launched its 2026 Halloween collection online in July, with store availability following later in the summer. The assortment includes the returning 12-foot Skelly, an 11-foot mummy and an 8-foot Perilous Plant Monster.
No broad Halloween promotion was displayed on the main category page when checked, so we are not labeling regular prices as sale prices. Home Depot is still worth monitoring for special buys, local markdowns and returned inventory, especially as October approaches.
Large props often sell out before the deepest seasonal discounts. If you want one exact centerpiece, check inventory rather than assuming it will remain available for a later promotion. Our Halloween animatronics guide can help you compare placement, power and weather-exposure requirements.
Lowe’s Halloween deals and local pricing
Lowe’s has its 2026 assortment live, including animatronics, outdoor decorations, inflatables, lights and fog machines. Some products require a store selection before the price and availability appear, which makes national deal claims unreliable.
Current featured products include a five-foot motion-activated talking doll animatronic, a lighted candy-corn corgi blow mold and a 5.7-foot Bluetooth DJ skeleton animatronic. Treat these as products to watch rather than confirmed discounts until your selected store shows a reduced price.
Best Halloween deals by budget
Under $10
Target currently has the strongest verified low-price selection, including $5 ceramic ghosts, plush spiders, towels, mugs and tabletop pieces. The retailer also has $10 LED fairy lights and several small lighted decorations. These prices make it possible to add one or two accents without waiting for clearance.
Under $25
The $15 Marvel costume promotion is the best current costume offer we verified. Target’s $20-and-under assortment also includes rugs, garlands, candles and small illuminated props. Candy promotions can fit this budget as well, but compare the cost per ounce.
$25 and up
For larger decorations, the better opportunities may arrive during the early-October events. Save the exact items you want at Walmart, Amazon and Target, then compare prices between October 5 and 7. Home Depot and Lowe’s are better treated as inventory checks for large props unless they display a clear markdown.
If you are willing to wait until after October 31 and shop for next year, see our Halloween clearance schedule. That separate guide explains the typical post-holiday markdown stages and the risk of waiting for the final discount.
Quick recommendation
Target has the best clearly documented Halloween promotions right now, particularly for costumes, candy, pet costumes and inexpensive décor. Shoppers looking for a larger selection should prepare for Walmart’s October 5 event and the overlapping Amazon and Target events on October 6–7. For oversized props from Home Depot or Lowe’s, inventory may be more important than the discount.
We will update this page as the early-October sale ads and product-level prices become available.
