Halloween duvet sets. WTF?

[notedbiscuits]

Saw in Home Bargains today. Took no notice of sizes or prices.

This is worse than Xmas bedding and cushions.

I think having themed bedding is pointless and besides you want a Xmas free room to chill out

My Halloween ghost duvet cover has been on my chair duvet all year......

How is a duvet cover plastic crap?

I have seasonal bedding. My seasonal bedding is years old! We still use the winter/Christmas until April because is brushed cotton.
I also have seasonal pjs which I wear all year long.
As only me and DH use our bedroom I can do whatever I like. Youngest DD likes goth so her Halloween stuff is out all year.
If people don’t like it, don’t buy it.
If someone can let me know where I can buy eco/uk/eu made bedding let me know.

Depends if it's made from polyester or not.

Didn't realise you were forced to buy it

Love my spooky bedding

@Beginningless

Yeah. I was looking for Christmas Advent Calendars & loads of halloween
ones came up, I did find that idea a bit odd.

If i found a nice one for my teen I might get it and use it for all of October. She loves the time of year but is far too old for tick or treat.

But who would want to?

Sorry, this is my fault, I'm absolutely the target market for this! But I have autumnal bits and bobs out from beginning of September to end of November, use it year after year and sell on Vinted if I get bored of it.

Autumn jumpers, PJs, puzzles, colouring books, tickets to a pumpkin festival, a cabin in the woods in October, bedding, candles with whimsical names involving rain and pumpkins and leaves and libraries. I'm a sucker for it.

Not so bothered about christmas.

Do you have a link? 😂

I need to see this duvet 🙏

Indeed.

I was a child in the 50s-60s. At school, we did autumn paintings and took in conkers, acorns, seed heads and coloured leaves for the nature table. At home, I used to make an "autumn box" with stuff collected from the hedgerows.

Now it's fake leaves, garlands and candles shipped in from China...

I bought one yesterday with black cats all over it, not because of Halloween but because our family cat was a black cat and died a little while ago and I thought DS would like it

@KerryBlues my kids and that's for sure 😄

I think it was this one but can’t remember where I saw the ad, YouTube maybe as it was a video. A quick google suggests there are loads…nuts!

I wouldn't buy any kind of themed bedlinen, cushions, crockery, pyjamas or anything like that, but I have no problem with anyone else buying it. I mean, they've only got to buy it once, haven't they? It's not like they're buying a new themed set every Halloween / Christmas / whatever. They just get the same one out of the cupboard when it's seasonal.

I can never really get worked up about how other people choose to dress, or style their home, or what they spend their money on.

It’s all just a marketing ploy to sell, sell, sell.

Personally I dislike Halloween with a passion so I won’t be buying.

None of my Halloween stuff is plastic.

Well there have been a number of people on this thread alone that have said they do. Me included. Mad ay, how people differ

Does someone come around and make you landfill the Halloween stuff on 1st November then?

I guess it will delay the display of the Xmas bedding until November. That's not a bad thing. Maybe even until mid Nov if they bring out a Guy Fawkes bedding set.

Yes. Pumpkins, Frankenstein and witches (purple). So not for Goths. But had Nightmare Before Christmas stuff

Happy Halloween was on the bedding. I hate that phrase

If no one buys it then it won't become a thing.

I bet a giant bag of jelly skulls it will become a thing.

This has just cracked me up 🤣

I have Halloween cat bedding - and Halloween blankets - I use them all year round they are super cute
