Two weeks ago I wrote about temporary Halloween shops that pop up near Halloween. I asked readers to scare up others retailers not included in the original list. Plenty of you wrote in with favorite haunts, mostly year-round retailers, to find Halloween decor and costumes.

Several readers suggested checking thrift stores such as Unique Thrift, Savers, Value Village, Goodwill and Salvation Army in the spirit of reduce, reuse and recycle.

And don’t forget the vintage shops too, including Corner Store for men and women (900 W. Lake St., Minneapolis, 612-823-1270), Lula for men and women (1587 Selby Av., St. Paul, 651-644-4110), Rewind for women (2829 NE. Johnson St., Minneapolis, 612-788-9870, www.rewindminneapolis.com), Tatter’s for men and women (2928 Lyndale Av. S., Minneapolis, 612-823-5285, www.tattersvintageclothing.com), Up Six for men and women (157 Snelling Av. N., St. Paul, 651-917-0470, www.upsixvintage.com), and Via’s Vintage for men and women (2408 Hennepin Av. S., Mpls., 612-374-3649, www.viasvintage.com ).
