The Costumer

Are you stuck looking for a last minute Halloween costume? Don’t worry. There are plenty of ways to remedy this dilemma. Here are some tips to help you out:

• Go with the homemade option. Hippies, gypsies, rock stars, and bikers can be created using items found around the house. This is also helpful if you don’t have extra cash.
• Buy the whole thing. Stores such as Halloween Adventure and Spirit offer wigs, makeup, and complete, prepackaged costumes. An adult costume will cost anywhere from $45 to $100 at this type of store.
• Borrow a costume. Most people save Halloween costumes, but don’t want to wear them for a second time. Consider exchanging a costume with a friend.
• Be creative. The scariest costume I ever witnessed was concocted by my friend. All he needed was a briefcase, suit, tie, and a badge that said: IRS.
