Yet, costumes aren’t the only thing consumers are waiting until the last minute for when it comes to Halloween.

This time last year, the drug store chain revealed that Americans are in fact candy procrastinators, with Halloween Eve being the day most people prepared for upcoming trick-or-treaters. However, Rite Aid has shockingly uncovered that last year shoppers pushed the limits of time as Halloween day became the new most popular day to pick up candy!
