THIS year, streamline your Halloween shopping by finding all your decor and themed goodies at Target.
The store's dollar spot section has some incredible budget finds, and one shopper shared her review of the best items available.
When Target fan and DIY pro Audrey of visited her local store, she was amazed by what she found on the shelves.
Her store's dollar spot was filled to the brim with holiday goodies – and just in time for the change in seasons.
"I hit the absolute jackpot for Halloween at Target today," Audrey said, showing the overflowing offerings at the store.
"These trays? Oh my gosh," she said, holding up two trays in Halloween colors. The orange tray had a pumpkin design, while the black tray looked like spiderwebs.
" I could not even take how cute they are," Audrey exclaimed. She said she might use the trays on their own or find a way to tier them. "That would be a fun, cool DIY."
Next, she held up plastic drinking glasses, printed with ghost faces and the phrase "Trick or Treat."
"It's not unlike anything I've ever seen before," Audrey admitted, but then she revealed the price: only $1 each, a deal too good to pass up.
Audrey found a collection of $3 oven mitts, which kept with the ghost theme, though there were a skeleton hand design and a "witchin' in the kitchen" print as well.
You can get in the Halloween spirit the moment you walk in the door with one of Target's welcome mats.
"I was really surprised by the fact that they had these little carpet mats," Audrey said. "They're always cute and they're quality."
Though she didn't show a price tag, the mats are similar to other $5 options Target has carried in the past.
While Audrey recorded, a Target employee unpacked a variety of Halloween mugs to stock the shelves – all in adorable styles.
"These mugs are amazing, really cute, and a good size, too," Audrey said. The witch's brew, ghost, and cat mugs can be yours for $3 each.
Another $1 find Audrey stumbled across was a set of paper decor, perfect for covering a larger area without spending tons of money.
Audrey showed off the creepy cats, flying bats, and floating witch hats.
"I like these," she said, musing about how she might use the bats in her own home. "I've seen those a lot, and the ones for a dollar are really cost-effective."
"Another thing I thought was really cool and really safe for the kids was these buckets," Audrey said, stepping in front of the camera with a plastic trick-or-treat bucket in hand.
A button on the handle activates an LED on the bottom of the bucket, helping kids navigate the dark and making them easier for cars to see.
"The fact that they light up is really cool," she said. "You don't need to bring a flashlight with you."
"Granted, they need to be bigger for my kids because they really haul in the candy," she joked.
As a finishing touch, you can extend your Halloween spirit to the bathroom with themed rubber ducks. Audrey was delighted to see the $1 item from previous years return.
"These rubber ducks were so cute!" she said, holding up a duck costumed as a mummy covered in spiders.
She also showed off a duck that looked like a pumpkin, complete with stem. "I've seen them before in previous years and they never cease to amaze me," Audrey said.
