Are you ready for Halloween? Believe it or not, the day is fast approaching. As the day comes near, the quantity and variety of costumes will become slimmer. Today I received an email from one of my favorite sites, Baby Center. They have a wide selection of Halloween costumes to choose from. Right now they are offering 10% off $50 orders (good through this Friday). Another great place to shop online for costumes is Ebay. Just remember to allow time for shipping. I know you want your little one to look adorable.
We have a lot of thrift stores around us. We found a Rolie Polie Olie, our sons new obsession, costume at one of them. It was dirt cheap and like brand new.
Good idea, Mike. Most of my daughter’s costumes have come from second-hand stores too . . . or the end of the season clearance. Last year I went to a consignment sale and got my daughter a cute Gap pumpkin costume. I think I only paid $4 for it. It came with a one piece fleece body suit that could also double for playing in the snow. I miss that store! This past winter while I was at Toys ‘R Us I found some costumes for about $3-$4 each. I bought several different ones. I think one of them will work for my son for this year.
