The next holiday on our schedule is Halloween, but I create goodie bags for my kids and their classmates for all the holidays. I use Oriental Trading because they sell in units, or dozens. This makes the price of each item very inexpensive. They have hundreds of items for every holiday so it's easy to pick what you want and create a little gift bag to be handed out at your office or school party. This article will give you some sample items, prices, and goodie bags you can put together as well as information for you to get your own catalog.

To get your own catalog go to OrientalTrading.com or call 1-800-228-2269.

My favorite holiday is Christmas so I am going to give you examples from that catalog. If you are interested in putting together something for Halloween feel free to contact the company with the above phone number.

First, you will want to buy a goodie bag or in this case I found a Candy Cane Treat Box. For only $3.95 you get 8 treat boxes. My youngest daughter has only 6 kids in her class so I would have 2 left over. If your child has a larger class you can opt for the transparent holiday bags that have either penguins, angels, reindeers, Santa's, or elves on them. These bags sell for $1.95 for a set of 12. My oldest daughter has 18 kids in her class so I would have to buy 2 dozen. That would still only cost me less than $4.

Takeaways
  • Oriental Trading makes putting goodie bags together easy.
  • Prices are per dozen or unit.
  • Add a toy, activity, candy, and a craft.

I like Oriental Trading however you must be careful since sometimes the candy can be stale. My experience. Anyway, thank you for sharing this wonderful goodie site/catalog.
