Move over
Christmas in July, here comes Halloween.
Home Depot is already
marketing its 12-foot tall Halloween skeleton.
Nicknamed
"Skelly," he has been a big hit over the past few years.
Now,
competing retailers like Walmart, Target and Lowe's are following suit.
To compete
with Skelly, Lowe's is offering a 12-foot lighted animatronic mummy.
Walmart is
countering with a 12-foot "Scary slim man"--while both Target and
Walmart offer 12-foot inflatable ghosts.
Make no
bones about it, with the pandemic finally winding down, retailers are expecting
Halloween 2022 to be big.
