What are you doing to prepare for Halloween?
Pretty much all of the above. I'm working hard to get my money up again although like you've said event's don't normally cost much, but you cant always make much during them!. I have donuts waiting,...

First of all, I'm glad you posted this topic Barry! It's always helpful to hear about what people plan to do to prepare! And it amps up the anticipation for Halloween for me! I can't wait to see what you do with your town this year :D
Let's see...
This is my second Halloween (I started playing just after Halloween 2013 ended).
As for preparation - a lot of people have already covered what I plan on doing:
-I have my donuts ready and waiting (Barry's right - it's good to stock up before hand in the hopes of avoiding donut purchase issues during the event)
-grinding away at SH in the hopes of getting completed/mostly completed. I don't want to have to worry about it during Halloween. And I'd like to design it after Halloween (inbetween Halloween and Christmas events). I had been taking it slow with SH, but now I just want it done!
-I plan to put my pumpkins and Spooky Trees out some time today or tomorrow :D
-I need to clear up a space for this Halloween's event items... Probably will be putting more things in my "still thinking about what I'm going to do with this" area
-reset my neighbour visit time - will likely do my visits tonight but not tomorrow - I do this every so often anyway because my visit time wanders from day to day and I'd like to set it as close to a time when I feel that most of my neighbours are awake in case we have mechanism for visits that resets after a certain period of time (I hope that they don't do that this year. Also hoping we don't need to spend donuts to help our neighbours in a significant way... I don't like it when an event is structured with those aspects - it's a personal preference)
Looking forward to seeing what we get this year, though! I have some really creative neighbours and I can't wait to see what they do with their designs this year!
EDIT: holy kadoodle that turned out to be longer than I thought it was! :lol:
