Millions for Halloween

Quebecers will spend roughly $85-million on Halloween.

The Retail Council of Quebec commissioned a study. It found that over 25 per cent of Quebec households would shop for the holiday.

The CEO of the council said that after Christmas and back-to-school, Halloween is an important time of year for consumers.

Around $50 will be spent on costumes, $20 on decorations and $30 on candy in preparation for the event.
