All we do is spend on special occasions in Ireland Halloween, Christmas, Easter, Birthdays, Funerals what else is there in life???

Depends on what you are doing / selling. I can't see that the avg family would spend a huge amount on halloween items such as masks outfits, decorations etc. Most people I know just frequent the pound shops for that kind of thing, and lots of people go to Lidl / Aldi for the treats.

Sorry if this seems a bit negative, maybe you have something that is totally different and desireable other than the above.

Isnt it a bit risky having a business centered on one night of the year!

Halloween is most certainly celebrated in Ireland - it originated here too ;-).

It is very popular.

LOL.

I think shops find it a bit of a drag and just 'put up with it' until they can get the christmas stuff up. Can you 'amend' your idea to a christmas one instead.
