Now that the kids are settling into their back to school routines, it’s time to turn our attention to the end of October highlight, Halloween.
My kids have already started to scour the catalogs and peruse the stores for the perfect costume. Some years they choose from our extensive personal costume collection that has accumulated over the years. Other years, they must have something new. Most often, it’s a combination of the two and they create their own one of a kind ensemble.
Now is the perfect time to sell your unwanted costumes and use the profits to buy the costume your child really wants. On LoobaLee, we make selling easy with our drop down menu and quick picture download. You can even share your listing with your Facebook and Twitter friends. How’s that for service? Plus for any item you list with the “Holiday-Halloween” theme from our drop down menu, now through October 15, your name will be entered in a random drawing to win a 1 year selling subscription. Already subscribed? No problem, we will add on or refund your current subscription — your choice.
