Weekend To-Dos: HALLOWEEN PREP
Halloween is next weekend, and if you haven’t already gotten a costume, you’re running out of time! Just kidding, you can order something October 30th and still have it in time thanks to Prime, but it’s certainly time to decide on something equal parts sexy and original so you don’t end up needing to break out the Jack Sparrow costume for the 14th year in a row. Here are a few other things to do this weekend in preparation for the year’s best holiday:
1) Get a cheap massage
“Self-care” might be the buzz-phrase of 2019, and for the better – we all could do more of taking care of ourselves! Nothing is as relaxing as having someone work out all the kinks that you’ve created in your body by sitting at a desk or lifting heavy furniture or whatever else you spend your work week doing, so this weekend, use one of the many recession-friendly discount sites like Groupon to scoop up a cheap one hour massage, or, if you’re really daring, let a student at a massage school treat you as a guinea pig.
2) Do a full body cleanse
Start Monday without the bloated, miserably hungover feeling of norm by doing a weekend cleanse diet to purge your body of toxins and help you lose a couple pounds. With a weekend cleanse like this one from Dr. Oz, you can clear up your skin, drop a little weight, and feel great for next week, which is crunch time for your sexified Halloween bod that I’m sure you haven’t been working on.
3) Scope out the good parties
Whether you’re celebrating old-school at a house party or hitting a club, planning ahead ensures you don’t end up trying to decide on a destination at 8pm on the 31st. Sites like Yelp Events can help you find the hottest party in your city.
