Hobby Lobby has permanently stopped selling Halloween merchandise, walking away from over $22 million in annual sales.
AI from Google search:
Founder's Rationale: Founder and CEO David Green stated that selling Halloween items conflicted with his Christian faith and values, describing the holiday as a "celebration of death". [1, 2]
Financial Impact: The company sacrificed more than $22 million in yearly merchandise sales. Green noted that while the choice costs money in the short term, he prioritizes obedience to his faith over profit. [1, 2]
What You Will Find Instead: Hobby Lobby no longer stocks spooky or explicitly Halloween-themed decor. Instead, the stores transition directly from general autumn and harvest items (such as pumpkins and faux leaves) into Thanksgiving and Christmas merchandise. [1, 2, 3, 4]
