Halloween is the highlight of fall—but between costume contests, classroom celebrations, and trick-or-treating, spooky season can start to get expensive. Luckily, whether you need a last- minute costume or an extra bag of candy for a boo basket, CVS has you covered.
The retailer has plenty of Halloween decór, makeup, and costume add-ons, but it truly shines when it comes to candy. Plus, this year, CVS is making Halloween even more fun with its plethora of deals on treats. You can stock up on everyone’s favorite Halloween goodies without going broke thanks to deals such as Buy One Get One for $1 Hershey’s Fun Size candy, Buy One Get One for $1 Mars Fun Size candy, and Mars Trick-or-Treating Fun Size candy bags for $3.99.
Ready to make Halloween a bit sweeter—and way easier—this season? Here’s what to shop:
Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups always go fast with trick-or-treaters, so grab an extra bag to round out your candy bowl and ensure all the kids get what they want. Bags are buy-one-get-one for $1 right now, so feel free to sneak a bag into your desk drawer, too.
You could give these fun size M&M’s to trick-or-treaters…or you could keep them to mix in with popcorn for scary movie nights all season long. Two bags are just $9, so why not do both?
Even if you don’t snack on candy corn, it’s best to have a few bags on hand for homemade treats, crafts, and filling candy dishes around the house. A symbol of the season, candy corn is a snack that doubles as decor. And right now, bags are two for $8. Be sure to keep one in the pantry.
For easy cupcake decorating, we love the Mellowcreme Autumn Mix—just press one of the pumpkin candy pieces into the icing and you’ve got yourself an autumnal treat. These bags are also two for $8 at CVS right now—perfect if you need to bake for a classroom celebration.
The Reese’s pumpkin-shaped peanut butter cups are cute, but these bats skew creepy, making them perfect for party favors or trick-or-treaters. You can go Team Bat or Team Pumpkin, or mix the two together. These bags are also BOGO for $1, a steal for getting Halloween ready.
If you live in a neighborhood that gets a lot of trick-or-treaters, or participate in a local trunk-or-treat, you’re going to need to stock up on candy. Large bags like these are the easiest way to do it, especially when all Mars Minis are BOGO 50% off at CVS.
“Boo baskets” filled with Halloween goodies and cozy fall treats are all the rage this year, and putting a few together for friends, neighbors, or your kids will make you everyone’s favorite good witch. These Reese’s cups are all in assorted Halloween shapes, so everyone can get something unique.
This large bag has plenty of options for trick-or-treators, including Snickers, Twix, Milk Way and 3 Musketeers. They’re also buy-one-get-one 50 percent off, so you can keep an extra bag around for the next time you’re craving something sweet.
The Whoppers and Heath bars in this large bag are usually reserved for nights at the movie theater, so they’ll feel extra special to trick-or-treaters. If you’re a fan of either, these bags are buy-one-get-one 50% off too.
If your house doesn’t see that many trick-or-treaters, make sure you’re covered by grabbing a small bag of your favorite chocolate bar, like these Nestle Crunch. This way, you have something sweet to offer anyone that comes to your door…and the leftovers can be a little treat for you.
We love that classic Kit Kats come in bright red packaging—this way, the snack size ones can double as festive stocking stuffers later this year. They’re buy-one-get-one-for $1, so now is the time to stock up.
