Gemmy Industries has just introduced a line of Peanuts-themed Halloween decorations. These new decorations will be available exclusively at Lowe’s for the 2024 Halloween season.
Featuring beloved characters from the classic “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown” special, this collection is designed to add a nostalgic touch to your Halloween celebrations.
The highlight of the collection is an 8-foot airblown inflatable depicting Snoopy lounging on the Great Pumpkin. Perfect for outdoor display, this eye-catching piece features cutouts for the pumpkin’s eyes and mouth and is designed for easy setup and storage.
Additionally, the collection includes a 30-inch lighted garden sculpture depicting Snoopy as Flying Ace in his red doghouse, complete with a “The Great Pumpkin is Coming!” banner and a Great Pumpkin jack-o-lantern. This whimsical sculpture is designed to capture the playful spirit of the Peanuts gang.
For those looking to enhance their interior decor or their covered porch decoration, a 24-inch blow mold of a Snoopy dressed as a vampire is also available.
Additionally, Lowe’s Home Improvement reported a 5.1% decline in comparable sales in the second quarter, beating analysts’ expectations for a 4.1% decline. The retailer now forecasts a 3.5% to 4% decline in comparable sales in 2024, up from the previous estimate of 2% to 3%.
In the quarter ended Aug. 2, Lowe’s posted net income of $2.4 billion on total revenue of $23.6 billion, compared with $25 billion in revenue in the same period last year. Revised full-year revenue guidance is between $82.7 billion and $83.2 billion, below the previous estimate of $84 billion to $85 billion.
Economic uncertainty and high borrowing costs have led consumers to spend less on home improvements and sales of outdoor goods to decline. Despite these challenges, Lowe’s CEO Marvin R. Ellison expressed confidence in the company’s long-term strategy.
Lowe’s stock price has risen over 9% year-to-date, while Home Depot shares have gained nearly 5%. Following the Q2 report, Lowe’s stock saw a slight decline in premarket trading.
