Halloween is a huge event now, not only around New Jersey but throughout the United States. According to Google, the National Retail Federation says Americans spent nearly 10.4 billion dollars on Halloween a year ago. Amazing amounts of money to celebrate the spooky season.

"Americans are estimated to have spent a record $10.14 billion on Halloween in 2021, according to the National Retail Federation (NRF). The amount spent per person on costumes, candy, decorations, and greeting cards averaged $102.74."

By the way, speaking of Halloween candy, according to Google "In 2021, Americans are estimated to have spent $3 billion on Halloween candy."

So as we can see, we love the Halloween season. According to Thrillist, Thanksgiving is the number one holiday in America, followed by Christmas at number two and Halloween at number three.
