Halloween is over, but costume season isn't...

Halloween may be over for this year, but it doesn't mean that is the only time you may need a costume. For instance, my 30th birthday is coming up in a few months and in honor of turning 30 I am having and 80's themed birthday party. All my guests are required to show up in 80's themed attire. Now some people may not require a costume per se, but others may not have the time to put together an awesome costume. So for those people--whatever their reasons may be--there is an easy solution.

Costume Express is running a special right now that is only going to last until November 9th....6 more days. They are having a sale on their clearance items--customers can get an additional 25% off. Here is what you need to do:

How to get an additional 25% off clearance:


1. Add any product marked with the red CLEARANCE icon, the orange SALE icon or the green BLOWOUT icon to your shopping cart.
2. Enter coupon code 25clear at checkout.
3. Offer expires 11/09/09 and cannot be combined with other offers.

Simple, huh? Not only is it a good time to get a costume, either for next Halloween or some other party you may have coming up, but it is also a good time to stock up on supplies for next year. There is a ton of stuff on sale so go check it out!!

Halloween is almost here!

Okay, so I know I've made a post on here a month or so ago about Halloween, but I just wanted to remind everyone it is coming up fast!

Tomorrow is October 1st and that means the countdown to Halloween is underway. So far Lilly has decided to be a pink fairy for Halloween, but knowing how things went last year that could change three more times before the actual holiday :-)

A great place to look for the stuff you need is http://www.buycostumes.com/. Last year we had a Halloween party and I bought a ton of stuff from them--costumes, decorations, and other party supplies. Not only did I purchase a fair amount of Halloween supplies, but I also received a very good deal. The prices on everything were the best I could find from one place, plus they have a nice 110% price guarantee that I personally know they honor. When I purchased my costume from them last year I ended up finding it cheaper from another company about a week later. I emailed http://www.buycostumes.com/ and I quickly received the refund--no hesitation, no problem!

For the customer service alone I would highly recommend using this company--not only for your Halloween needs, but also for any party you are going to have. Buycostumes.com definitely can fill your party supply order!

Happy Halloween!





P.S. Right now they have $0.99 economy shipping on orders of $40 or more!

Halloween already?

With all of the fun and exciting movies that come out during the summer, there is something else to think about besides how to sneak popcorn in your purse—Halloween! While July might seem like it is too early to start thinking about shopping for Halloween costumes, think about this: your child decides at the beginning of October that he wants one of the new GI Joe costumes this year. You go down to one of the local retail stores thinking you are ahead of the game only to find that it is gone. And not only is it gone at the first store it is gone at every store in town. Instead of scrambling around your local tri-county area trying to find your child’s dream costume, think about shopping around online at a dedicated costume website.

Costume Express is just the website you need! As the #1 juvenile costume brand online, think of how happy your kids will be getting that dream costume early! They’ll be so excited to wear it for Halloween they might try to wear it around the house before the holiday. Right now till the end of the year you can take advantage of FREE SHIPPING on orders of $75 or more. Now, I know what you are thinking, “$75 for costumes, are you nuts!” Consider this, going to this one website you’ll be able to get everything you need without ever leaving the house—the costume, costume accessories and Halloween decorations.

Now last year we decided to have a Halloween party at our house and I did a ton of research. I knew what costumes I wanted for my daughter and myself and what my husband needed to complete his costume, plus all the decorations we needed for the house. I wanted to be able to get as much as possible from the same place, even if it meant getting some online and some from a local retailer. Throwing parties can cost a pretty penny sometimes and I did not want to spend a lot of money on costumes and supplies, and that is where the research came in. I checked various websites selling costumes and supplies, and I checked around town to see how much supplies would cost. Let me take all of that hard work out of the holiday for you.

Go to the Celebrate Express website. Check out the soon to be popular costumes like Wolverine, Iron Man, or Optimus Prime from the Transformers for boys, and any of the princess, Barbie, or High School Musical for girls. While you’re there, pick up all your decorating needs too!

Happy Halloween Shopping!



P.S. Don't forget about the FREE SHIPPING!
