Spruce up your house and outfits with some budget-friendly stores that can fuel your fall fever on a budget. Whether you're after some great fuzzy socks or looking for a sticker collection, these are five good places to score some great deals.

1. Dollar tree

Looking for non-traditional goodies for kids? Stop the search and head to your closest dollar store. They have a variety of cute party supplies and favors that are sure to be a crowd pleaser...or your family whom you have been in quarantine with for seven months.

2. Target

Pumpkin spice and everything nice. Not only do they have that glorious, frugal clearance section up front everyone knows. They also have tasty baking options. Did you know that you can now make a halloween cookie house decorated in candy like you would for christmas? Genius. Don't forget the spice cake mix!

3. Walmart

I was pleasantly surprised by this one. They have a huge selection whether it be the globs of candy you're after, mugs, costumes or festive Halloween leggings, it might be better for your bank account to leave your girlfriend at home for this visit. Surprise her with fresh pumpkin!

4. At Home

This is a one stop shop for those of you who like to go overboard on decorating. They have halloween stuff out as early as July if I remember those days I went out for something other than a drive- thru. Pillows, blankets, and skeletons galore. One of my favorites is a candle that when it melts, looks like it's bleeding.

5. Goodwill

My girlfriend is an avid thrift shopper and she swears by this one. You never know what exactly you'll find but that's part of the fun. Around Halloween time is no exception. They have shirts, costumes, decorations, plates, lights, and even some never used cosmetic products to complete your disguise. Plus if you don't see something in the seasonal section, there is a plethora of unique clothes you can put together for your own costume idea!

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
