The stores and catalogs are filled with fabulous Halloween decorations, and they can be tempting until you take a look at the price tag!  So…how does The Budget Diet Girl do spooky and spectacular on a shoestring budget? She does the Dollar General Halloween Hack!

What the heck is that?

The #DGHalloween Hack starts by getting inspired by a pricey Halloween decoration, and then creating a DIY version with Dollar General supplies.   Halloween at Dollar General  is amazing with an abundance of items for just $1.

Recently, The Budget Diet Girl fell in love with a Halloween doormat until she saw the $40 price tag!  What did she do?  She was inspired, and she was motivated to create her own spooky and spectacular doormat; and that's exactly what she did after making an $8 purchase from Dollar General.
