This year Halloween spending hits a record. At least 170 million people will celebrate this year-- that's seven in ten Americans.  It's the biggest number since the national retail federation starting tracking Halloween spending ten years ago.  The average person will spend just under $80 on costumes, candy, and decorations.  Total spending projected to reach $8 billion.

If you're one of those shoppers who has waited until the last minute, don't despair; here are some of SPIRIT Halloween's suggestions:

Popular Kid Costumes:
Angry Bird costume -  $27.99-$34.99
Very popular video game.

Popular Adult Costumes:
Zombie costume - $49.99
The very popular TV show, The Walking Dead, that is based around zombies is starting again.

Political Masks:
President Obama and Gov. Romney Mask - $19.99
Since 1996, Spirits mask sales have accurately predicted the winner of the election. Right now President Obama is outselling Gov. Romney 65% to his 35%.
