While it might be too late to buy costumes and decorations for this Halloween, that does not mean you shouldn't shop for items, such as inflatables and masks, for next Halloween. In fact, the best time to get the best price on holiday products is late in the season or even after the holiday ends. This is because retailers want to get rid of as much inventory as possible to make room for Christmas.
