Dog Costume - Hot Diggity Dog Halloween Costume (Hot Dog w/Mustard) - Large
Customer Review: I love it!
I searched and searched for my pets hot dog costume and this one was the best because it looks like the mustard is right on them! I loved it and so did my basset hounds!
Customer Review: good size for my corgis
I bought both the mustard and ketchup hotdogs for my two corgis. I agree with other reviewers that the sizing is a bit confusing. The large fits my corgis perfectly, and this breed is not typically considered large dogs, so make sure to measure your dogs before ordering. My dogs are about 20-24 inches from neck to tail, and weigh a little less than 30 lb. I have also added a "customer image" up there on this page so you will have a better idea if you are considering buying this costume (and of course to show off my cute dogs...). Since I didn't want to spend too much money but do want to dress them up for the Halloween, I think this was a good choice. And the shipping was fast!
Dark Knight Batman Muscle Chest Child DC Comic Superhero Super Hero Costume
T-Rex Child Costume
Customer Review: Good price, poor quality
I expected more, though I suppose I shouldn't have, considering the price. Do not trust the picture, which makes the costume look as if the tail is stuffed and the material fluffy. In fact, the tail, along with all other trim, is cheap vinyl, and the the material is thin and runs like cheap hose. Nevertheless, my boys, who are rather less critical than I am, love it and wear it often, despite its pitiful condition. If price is all you're worried about, here you go. If quality is important, go elsewhere.
Customer Review: T-Rex Costume
Delighted with the costume which arrived very promptly. At the time I placed the order I wanted two other costumes which I bought from other suppliers and was shocked to then be charged for postage and packing separately. This was not made obvious at the time I placed the order - had it been I would probably have ordered all three costumes from the same supplier.
When is the best time to begin your search for Halloween decorations and costumes? The answer is as soon as you can. Today, you can begin at the end of summer if you use the internet instead of relying on your local stores. Halloween is a fun and spooky night that everyone can enjoy, however, if you wait until the day before time to go trick or treating, your kids may not find a costume they want as the store sells out quickly of the most popular costumes. However, online you can find costumes all year long and decide months in advance and then order in time to receive all the costumes you need for the entire family.
When it comes to decorations, you should look and see if you have any left from last year and then add to these. Creating a spooky and fun yard and home for Halloween is just as much for the adults as it is the kids. You can find such things as doormats that make spooky sounds, tapes of all kinds of scary sounds, zombies for the front yard, moving hands, and more. The possibilities are endless as long as you have the imagination to transform your yard and home to the spookiest in the neighborhood.
Once again, we must look at the costumes as these are really the most important part of Halloween. Each person can be any character they desire. You can create any type of Halloween party and go back in time to the early 1800's, the 1960's and the Hippie generation, or even create a party with a scary theme such as a crypt or graveyard. What about turning your entire yard or party room into Dracula's Den? Of course, the way you decorate and what you wear depends on whether you will have children or adults at your party.
If you are searching for costumes, you have to choose the costumes for their ages. For babies you can choose such costumes as kitty, elephant, pumpkin, lamb, and monkey. Toddler costumes are the most popular list are ballerinas, Spiderman, Pikachu, Minnie Mouse, and Mickey Mouse. As the children grow so do the costumes they wish to wear. You can find all kinds of costumes for the older children such as animals, Hannah Montana, Princess, aliens, and ninja warriors.
Teens of course, would not want to wear any of the above, as they would certainly say, "those are for kids". Teen girls would prefer such Halloween costumes as Elizabeth Pirate, Devil Fairy, or Genie Princes, whereas the teen boys are sure to want such Halloween costumes as Ghost Rider, Davy Jones, Sir Peter the Knight of Wolfsbane, and Jack Sparrow.
Of course, teens may wish to create their own unique Halloween costume and add a wig, especially the girls. Some of the wigs they may desire include China Doll, Angel, Long Punk, or Elvira.
Remember, Halloween is a night of fun, enjoy it, it only comes once a year.

WITCHES BROOMSTICK - HALLOWEEN - REAL BRISTLES - COSTUME ACCESSORY PROP - NEW
Customer Review: A costume Prop...that's about it.
I was hoping for a higher end costume prop than what I got. But considering that's all it is, a prop. I'm ok with it. The broom is shorter than I imagined but is the length advertised. The bristles were already falling out when it arrived. I was hoping for something I could use year after year - this isn't it.
Customer Review: Perfect for your little Halloween Witch!
This is a perfect size for my 7 year old and she is very excited for Halloween to come with this broom to complete her ensamble. I wouldn't really recommend it for adults because it isn't that long but for a child it is perfect. Shipping was very fast to an APO address which is great because I didn't have to worry about it not getting here in time. I haven't seen any bad parts about it yet but Halloween is still to come.
As Halloween approaches, many of us have some party or Halloween event to go to. Since it's only once a year, don't you want to make it exciting by choosing a great costume? If you are still searching for the right one, here are some creative ideas that have been growing in popularity.
- Sarah Palin - With the upcoming elections and the famous SNL skit with Tina Fey, Sarah Palin has become a fashion spectacle. From her hair to the famous glasses, more and more people have been seeking the Palin look. If you're looking to make that Sarah Palin transition, there are relatively cheap ways you can pull it off. Get yourself a light brown wig unless you already have similar hair color. The wig should run you about $30 to $45 and you should be able to style it to match one of her famous styles. No need to get the real hair as it will cost you a pretty penny and if this is just for a couple nights, why bother. Get yourself a pair of rimless glasses. Palin's are designed by Kazuo Kawasaki and distributed by a Los Angeles based Optical distributor, Italee Optics. They range anywhere between $200 to $400%2B. So unless you're looking to change your prescription glass frame, you can go with a cheap knock off. Finally, choose a business suit, pants or skirt and you're good to go.
- John McCain - Another popular costume due to the upcoming elections is John McCain. This is very simple to pull off since all you need is a suit and a McCain mask.
- Barack Obama - And another popular costume. Similar to the McCain costume, just wear a suit and the mask and you're set.
- Flavor Flav - As much as this guy annoys me, his costume has grown in popularity with teenagers and some adults. The clock, Viking helmet, and sun glasses come in one kit that's about $15. The outfit is sold separately for about $40 to $50.
- Batman, Joker - The Dark Knight costumes have grown in popularity with kids and adults. There are different versions of the costumes ranging from the simple costume to the more expensive, more defined and durable costumes. Take a look for yourselves and you'll be able to see the obvious differences. Overall, all versions of the costumes are good and if you're like me, you'll only be wearing this a couple of times this year so no point in spending a fortune.
