Deal of the Day: Free Shipping on Disney Halloween Items!

Hey There Disney Fans!

Todays highlighted Deal of the Day is a deal on Halloween Items!

What it is: This is a deal where you get free shipping on your entire order if it includes items from the Disney Store Halloween shop. Note: there is also a deal going on where you can get $10 off of select costume styles in the Halloween shop and you can combine those offers.

Who it's for: Anyone looking for Halloween items. There are a number of items for adults as well as kids, and it's not just costumes. There are home décor items and accessories in addition to costumes and other products.

How to Get it: For the Free Shipping Deal, all you have to do is have any item from the Halloween Shop in your cart and enter promo code FREESHIP at checkout. As I noted above, there are a few baby and kid costumes that are also on sale for $10 off that are eligible for this sale here.

Is this a "Good" Deal: Since there are two parts to this deal, we will take them one at a time.

1) Free Shipping on Halloween orders: Yes, the Free Shipping part is a good deal. Free Shipping is pretty much always a good deal if it's something you were planning to buy anyway so, if you like the Halloween items then, yes, it's a good deal. Also, since there is no minimum dollar amount to get free shipping, this can be a very good deal if you want one of the Halloween items and maybe one or two other things from the website that would not otherwise qualify for free shipping.

2) $10 off of select costumes: Whether or not this is a "good deal" depends much more on personal preference. Even with the discount, the cheapest costume available on this sale is still $22.99 and most of the costumes are still over $30. That sounded like a bit much to me but, when I checked what Walmart had, almost all of their kid's Halloween costumes were $24+ with many of them over $30 as well.

Target has a fair selection of kid's Disney costumes for under $20 but, many of those are available in-store only so, your ability to find the exact sizes and styles you want will vary by what your particular store chooses to stock. So far, the best selection of Disney kid's costumes for under $20 that I've seen is was at Costco.

Costumes at Costco
The Costco near me has a wide variety of Star Wars and Marvel costumes for Boys as well as a variety of Disney Princess costumes for girls including Elsa, Anna, Belle, Rapunzel, and various other character costumes. All of the kid's costumes I saw were listed at less than $20. You can see all of them online here, but you will need to have a Costco membership in order to purchase these.

In short, the free shipping is a good deal and, if you like the costumes that are available at the Disney Store online, the $10 off deal might be good as well, but you might want to consider Costco as well if you have a membership.

One More Thing: I always put "good deal" into quotes because, what makes something a good value is based on more than just the price. The costumes available on the Disney Store website are extremely cute and they look well made and have a lot of cool accessories to go with them. I like to point out the cost of different things, but that may not be the only thing you want to take into consideration.

The Fine Print: I have copied below the Fine Print that Disney published for each of these deals.
