| It’s time for the first (soon-to-be) annual grocerylists.org Halloween Gift Guide. Treats, tricks, costumes and some fun gift and party suggestions. Prices current as of the last week of September 2006. Enjoy!
For anyone and everyone
 It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown (DVD) | “Charlie Brown gets rocks in his trick-or-treat bag, Linus awaits a visitation from the Great Pumpkin in his terribly sincere pumpkin patch (while the adoring little Sally sits tight with him), Snoopy falls asleep, Lucy harasses Schroeder, and Pig-Pen kicks up a dust storm even beneath his costume in this classic television broadcast. Funny stuff, but also graced with Charles Schultz’s more poignant and gently satiric themes from the 1960s on the influence of faith, failure, and hope in our lives.” ($12.88)
For cookie aficionados who entertain in style
Halloween Cookie Collection | “Almost too scary to eat … but positively too delicious not to. One dozen scrumptious cookies, artfully decorated for the season and delivered in the handsome lidded gift box shown. Kids love them (of course), but they might also make a fun way to break the ice at a formal dinner party.” ($29.95)
For curiously soft, whole-grain babies
 Infant Wonder Bread Costume | “Wonder Bread Loafing around, waiting for all the ohhs and ahhs to begin! Sleeveless poly fleece bunting with attached hood easily fits over clothes. Self-stick fabric snaps at bottom provide easy access for changing diapers. Machine wash. Imported. 3-12 mos.” ($24.98)
For macabre psychos
Bates Motel Sign | “The perfect ‘welcome’ sign for your home. Electric, plastic sign with chain attached for easy hanging. ‘Vacancy’ portion blinks just like the original one in the classic horror movie, Psycho! Measures 16 in x 16 in x 2.25 in.” ($29.99)
For your partyin’ pooch
 Hot Dog Halloween Costume |”This Halloween, your dog will really be the HOT DOG you always knew he or she could be. Available in Ketchep or Mustard condiments.

For the gadget freak
 Egg & Muffin Toaster | Perfect for cool fall mornings: “Need toast? You’ve got it. Want a poached or hard boiled egg? It’s yours. And if you want them together in your favorite breakfast sandwich, the Egg & Muffin Toaster also warms your pre-cooked meat. Bingo… Ready to eat in about 4 minutes. It’s sort of the drive-thru breakfast without the drive.” ($39.99)
