This house is clearly debt free. They are spending a lot of money on decorations. There are quite a few in their yard. It was very nice with the tombstones and creatures rising out of the ground. They also have some decapitated heads hanging from their tree.
This house had it all! They have a guillotine in the far left of the picture. On top of their porch their is some wolverine zombie thing cutting another creature's head off making it roll down the roof. They had dry ice to create an eerie smoke affect and then all kinds of lights and other little props. The dogs were definitely scared of all the props and would bark at them. That was rather humorous.

And then you have our home. The lame tombstones in the front with the skeleton fence lining. All of this was from 5 below for about $50. We are clearly the ones who are trying to pay off debt. Everyone else has some crazy props in their yard. We will probably not get any visitors this year. Actually, thinking about that, it may not be a bad thing. We are only going to spend $50 on candy and once we are out, we are out. We will give everybody a high-five.
Everyone have a wonderful weekend!
Umm... what do you mean that the house 'is clearly not debt free'? I have some co-workers who dress their house up better than you would see in most magazines, and they've never had a cent of debt. I would love to assume you know for a fact they have some sort of debt, but if you don't, then I don't think judging from the decorations is a good way to go... or judging/guessing period. Might just be me. Great photos, though. I'm sure the kids have a blast.
ReplyDeleteOops...typo. I meant to say they are clearly debt free.
DeleteOn the flipside, it could be that they're in debt and just overbuying like many people in debt do. I still don't think it's a good measure, but it's an interesting reflection.
DeleteI have to buy candy for the downtown associations trick or treat because my studio is down town. But I limit to the cheapest and spend $100.00 we always run out, it also interrupts class and many of my students don't show up, I am such a Halloween Grinch!
ReplyDeleteI'd actually be more likely to believe it was the reverse, with the people spending tons of money on decorations being the ones who are NOT debt free. But, you never can tell either way by outside appearances. Sounds like your neighborhood gets pretty wild & crazy on Halloween!
ReplyDeleteI really like your house, I almost wouldn't mind 92K in debt if I had one like that.
ReplyDeleteI wish that 92K included our mortgage...but thank you for your comment. We love it too much probably.
