October 25th is the date that most stores pull down the Halloween stuff and transition to Christmas stuff. It's not unusual for most stores to have zero Halloween stuff on the shelves on Halloween.

The seasonal arrival of Spirit in the many empty commercial buildings has made this worse. Regular stores bring in less merchandize and are often stocking Christmas stuff 2 or 3 weeks before Halloween in my area.
