What Does It Mean to Get “Booed”?
The “Booed” tradition is all about surprise, delight, and a little neighborhood mischief (the good kind). Here’s how it works: Someone secretly leaves a Halloween-themed treat, bouquet, or small gift on your doorstep, along with a note inviting you to “boo” two more friends. It’s like a chain of kindness—spreading spooky joy, one doorstep at a time!
How to Boo Like a Pro
- Pick Your Boo: Choose a neighbor, friend, or local business you want to surprise. (Bonus points for picking someone who could use a little extra cheer!)
- Deliver the Goods: Drop off a treat, bouquet, or small gift—think seasonal snacks, a mini pumpkin, or a festive floral wrap from Sticks & Stones Co. Don’t forget the “You’ve Been Booed” note (we’ve got printable tags in the shop!)
- Keep It Secret: The fun is in the mystery! Ring the bell, leave your surprise, and vanish like a Halloween spirit.
- Encourage the Chain: Your note should invite the recipient to “boo” two more people. Watch the kindness ripple through the community!
At Sticks & Stones Co., we believe in growing joy and connection—one bouquet, one smile, one little act of kindness at a time. The “Booed” tradition is a perfect way to celebrate community, support local businesses, and make October a little brighter (and spookier!).
