Heading into the Holiday Season I am excited for my favorite holiday, Halloween. I know it is a little over a month away but you have to prepare. If you shop now and have the willpower not to eat all your purchases you should be ready for all the tricksters that come your way. But, why should they get all the fun. I’m sure that family, friends and co-workers might enjoy a little treat, too. So, I applied for this shoppertunity so that I could #BOOItForward to my co-workers because we have a very tough shift (Weekend Overnights 12 hours at a time) and a treat is just what we need to improve morale. So I went to Walmart and picked up a few supplies.

I wanted to make BOO Kits for the people in my group. My intent was to get to work before everyone else and put them on their desks without them know it, but even on my earliest day I still can’t beat some people there, so I was found out. That doesn’t mean that you can’t be sneaky and fun when you do your own BOO kit. How do you make a BOO Kit? You are in luck because I will give you a tutorial on exactly how I made mine.

At Walmart I picked up some supplies. I got the Mars Mixed Minis 52 oz. bag filled with M&M’s®, SNICKERS®, and TWIX®. I also got the Wrigley Monster Stash 315ct bag which is HUGE! That contained a variety of SKITTLES®, STARBURST®, and LIFESAVERS®. I also found some fun Halloween monster themed soda like 7UP®, A&W Root Beer and Sunkist®. I picked up some Halloween themed bags that said BOO on them and some tissue paper. I’m not sure why the tissue paper, but it seems to go hand in hand with gift bags. So, I got Halloween themed tissue paper. I went a little overboard and above the allotted money for the shop but I did end up with a little over and it “might” make it to Halloween, if I put it under lock and key.

Race Ahead with Skylanders SuperChargers on the Nintendo 3DS


Photo-A-Day #3818

Skylanders Superchargers for the Nintendo 3DS In addition to me buying the Skylanders Superchargers Dark Edition for the Wii U I also picked up the Nintendo 3DS version of the game. I’ve gotten all of the 3DS versions of the game ever since Skylanders came out because that version usually has different characters (This time if had Bowser and Clown Cruiser) and it is a different game. This game is a racing game pure and simple. It take the new vehicles as well as the trophies and more and the player races through a series of tracks against different villains and other skylanders. You can play this game online as well. That is, you can play against friends and race to see who is the fastest. I have been playing this version of the game while waiting for Eva when she is in play rehearsal. I enjoy having my Skylanders on the go with this game and the 3DS. It is a pretty sweet little game. One of my favorites in the Skylanders line. I have yet to completely finish any one of the 3DS games, though. Maybe this one.

You are going to need your existing collection to complete this game. There are some race tracks that get unlocked with certain elements and some with Magic Items. Make sure that you have those on hand when you are playing/
