Goodwill Is Your Halloween Headquarters
When you visit Halloween Headquarters at your local Goodwill Store you'll find the latest costumes, trends, home decor and accessories at a fraction of retail costs. This is because we blend the best of donated and new goods to provide shoppers ultimate variety.
Whether you want to build a costume from scratch or grab and go, Goodwill team members are ready to help. And, no matter what the upcoming spooky days hold, you can bask in the knowledge that your Goodwill purchases start new lives. In fact, 87 cents of every dollar spent at Goodwill of the Heartland stores is reinvested in your community through a variety of life and job skill programs. Because of you, we help military veterans reintegrate into civilian life, offer professional certification programs to workers hoping to advance their careers, provide assessments to young workers just starting out, and collaborate with local partners to ensure everyone can access the tools needed to live their best lives. Thank you!
Spooktacular Shopping!
» Have costume ideas in mind before you go shopping. The Internet is a great place to find inspiration for a do-it-yourself costume that will be uniquely you
» Set aside time to shop so you can find pieces that work best for you and your costume.
» Make a list of items you need before going shopping. This will keep you focused (there’s a lot to see at Goodwill!) and also prevent you from forgetting a vital piece.
» Use your imagination and keep an open mind — everyday clothing items and accessories can often be altered, resized or repurposed to create something entirely new.
» Use everyday savings, such as the 50 percent off color-of-the-week, to save even more money.
» Don’t forget the rest of the store! Goodwill’s home goods and book sections are stacked with items that can be used or repurposed as costume props or Halloween decor!
