FarmVille Halloween Costumes arrive: Are they a trick or a treat?

FarmVille Halloween costumes have arrived, and for the next 16 days, you will be able to purchase a costume (for either coins or Farm Cash) and dress up your farmer in a variety of outfits -- my personal faves have to be Super FV Woman and the Ugly Duckling, as modeled by my virtual farmer in the image above.

There's good news and bad news about these costumes. A handful of them are available for coins, but the really cool ones will require you to spend some real-life cash to have the privilege of putting 'em on your farmer. However, I you just want to see if those pricier costumes are worth buying, you can try them on your farmer.
There are two ways to find these brand new costumes:

1. Click on your farmer, which will open the customization window. You should see a new 'Clothing' button on the top right. Mouse over it and you'll see a pop-down menu, which will have 'Costumes' as an option. Select costumes and you will be able to scroll through your selection.

2. There is also a new 'Clothes' option in the FarmVIlle Market. Click it to open up the menu of items, which can be purchased right there. If you want your farmer to try on the costumes, you will be bounced to the customization window once again.

FarmVille: 20% off Farm Cash with Halloween Game Card promotion

From now until Halloween - October 31 - you can get an extra 20% of Farm Cash when you redeem a Zynga Game Card in FarmVille. According to a new loading screen you'll see when entering your farm, this promotion doesn't seem to require you to purchase your Zynga Game Card from any particular retailer; it's just a setup that will see you (in Zynga's words) having 20% off Farm Cash when redeeming a card.

As I've said before, the language in these kinds of promotions is a bit misleading. It shouldn't say "20% off" at all. Instead, it should say that you'll earn 20% more Farm Cash when redeeming a card. After all, it's not like GameStop (or any other retailer that sells the cards) can give you a discount on actually purchasing the card in the store. You're going to end up paying the same amount of real-world money either way. You'll just receive more Farm Cash in the end than originally.

Still, this isn't to say the promotion is bad, as you're going to end up with more Farm Cash than you expected by taking advantage of it. Just keep in mind that your out-of-pocket expenses will be the same, and keep in mind that you only have until the end of the day on October 31 to take advantage of this deal if it sounds interesting to you.

Check out the rest of our Halloween coverage right here.

Will you purchase a Zynga Game Card to take advantage of this extra 20% promotion? What will you spend your new Farm Cash on?
