I have a few more options: thrift stores, Value Village, Goodwill stores, Talize. I have never spent more than $10 on each child. The love to find the pieces to make up a costume. They get to use their imagination without a pre-made suit. I have never bought pre-made costumes and the kids get just the same amount of candy as their friends. The parents think I plan it for months, but keep it simple and creative…and get the kids involved! I am not a frugal shopper but more than $10 for a one time event seems to send the wrong message to my kids. We either donate the items back to charity or keep in our dress up bin. My kids are 20, 17 and 13 and they STILL use the dress up bin for school spirit days, football games, work functions, etc. Happy shopping
