<p>It's almost Halloween weekend, and I still don't have a costume. I don't want something too expensive or something with too much makeup. Can we throw ideas around here? </p>
<p>I want to think of some iconic character, like Chaplin's Tramp or Groucho Marx.</p>
<p>Hell yeah, put a paper bag on your head, with a face on it of course!!</p>
<p>I think I'll be Condi.</p>
<p>be tissue box!
thats what i was in 8th grade..</p>
<p>I don't even need a costume. I'm scary enough.</p>
<p>Well, my cheapest costume was Princess Leia- I put my hair up in cinnamon buns, wore my 8th grade graduation gown with a gold ribbon tied at the waist. . .and presto!!! </p>
<p>But I'm thinking OP is a guy. . . go to a thrift store like Amvets or Salvation Army- sooo much fun, and there's some usually some interesting and cheap stuff. That's where I get most of my costume's for my roles in our school's musicals. </p>
<p>Since I'm in Cinderella this year (Ensemble), I think I'll wear my ball gown from the show, or even my renaissance peasant costume. . . since I already have those. Or I could always wear my hooker costume from the Temple scene of Jesus Christ Superstar (last year's show). :)</p>
<p>go with the hooker costume</p>
<p>How about just go naked. You will probably get alot of looks.</p>
<p>Shastarasta, you should go as Zipdrivekid...o wait...that's not a costume.</p>
<p>be a pumpkin.</p>
<p>How about being a math/science/drama/band nerd ;)</p>
<p>go with a buddy to an army/navy surplus store, or any thrift store, buy jumpsuits, and aviators...BAM, you guys are Maverick and Goose from Top Gun.</p>
<p>Even easier than that, get a volleyball, some grey sweatpants, and ace bandage and you can go as Slider from the volleyball scene.</p>
<p>Oh... man. Top Gun. Good stuff... I was thinking something along the lines of Tetris shapes. (haha, get it? Tetris? :P )</p>
<p>go as next semester's econ exam. :D</p>
<p>Chalie Brown style ghost costume...</p>
<p>Yeah, I am going as wonder bread. (king size pillow case with "wonder" logo on it and holes for my hands and arms) It is wicked, I love it.</p>
<p>Two years ago I was a Pepsi can. I made a logo with construction paper and glued it onto two blue posterboards, and I painted on the nutrition facts. Then I curved and taped the posterboards together to make a cylinder and put foil around the top. Probably my best idea - usually I just wear black and put a bunch of fake blood on my face.</p>
<p>Does anyone have one that I could make in a couple of minutes, or so? I'm going to a party tonight, so I don't want it to be stupid, or hinder me physically, so a pepsi can is out...lol.</p>
<p>Go as yourself....inside out.</p>
<p>the cheapest solution: Wrap toilet paper around your whole body and VIOLA you're a mummy.</p>
