Why are you worried about how much is spent? Are there limits to how much business can make??
No, of course there isn’t. I am mildly criticizing the current wild sums being spent by adults on Halloween which used to be nothing but kids in homemade costumes trick-or-treating for homemade candy & fruit.
Just now seems all out of proportion, that’s all.
This is unfair, but here it comes: How much of all this Halloween stuff is made in China!!!?
