In October, stepping into Trader Joe’s exudes a distinct vibe. The air carries a whisper of pumpkin spice, the shelves brim with special seasonal treats, and the produce area seems to be celebrating too. More than just groceries, Trader Joe’s throws itself into a full Halloween festivity, embracing the spooky spirit with the same enthusiasm as it does for the holiday cheer of peppermint and poinsettias in December.
Should you find fun-sized candies too excessive, these “Teensy” bars, brimming with luscious chocolate and caramel in compact portions, are just the ticket. Ideal for trick-or-treating or a quick snack, they’re irresistible, so be prepared to grab more than one bag.
These delectable mini chocolate bars are so tempting, they can hold their own against top-name candies. Each bag offers a variety of options, from nougat and caramel to caramel and wafer, and plain nougat. Sold in 24-count bags, they’re great for trick-or-treating or for those moments when the sweet tooth kicks in.
The Trick-or-Treat Mini Canvas Totes are the mature equivalent of a candy bucket. Available in vibrant Halloween hues, they are the ideal reusable bags for errands or for gifting candy to friends. As with many TJ’s collectibles, they often vanish quickly, so act fast—before they’re gone.

This charming Light-Up Cemetarium, a depiction of a graveyard scene, is a delightful seasonal find that Trader Joe’s consistently delivers. Playful and slightly haunting, it’s a whimsical piece that would look out of place in a boutique gift shop, yet it carries the Trader Joe’s tag.
