Shop Till You Drop! Yeah. I know you're not supposed to shop online using company resources. But, if you're going to do it, you may as well save some money.

Can't find a coupon for this anywhere

I just have troubles paying 7.50 shipping on something that's only 15 dollars to buy

Anyone seen this cheaper elsewhere?

If I were you, Bridgette, I'd look at the website catalog with a friend or neighbor who might want to order costumes, too. This way you can split the postage and help someone else get a jump start on Hallowe'en.

When I was a young Mom, one of my friends regularly got the Current catalog (this was before the internet was widely used, perhaps 1990 or 1991.) Current alway charged lower per item prices if you bought 12 items from the catalog.

Anne would show the catalog to a few of us and together we'd have the twelve items (and she'd keep the free premium for her trouble.)

I've been checking Ebay -- but they don't have much

She needs about a size five

I like the sharing shipping idea. But most of my connections in this town thus far are mainly at church and I think we are the only ones that "do Halloween" at our church (the heathens that hubby and I are)

I forgot Mysimon

I checked all the coupon boards I could find

I don't sew

Maybe I should learn....

Bridgette -- that looks like very basic sewing to me -- what my mom calls "monster stitching".

It's the only sewing I know how to do

have you tried the local hobby lobbies or costume stores yet? you might have better luck in the "real world" than online!

as for sewing, I think you could probably make a decent bumble bee costume without much sewing-thinking a black leotard, fabric paint and strips of gold cloth for the body-black tights and you could make the antenna's out of pipe cleaners!

What about buying a glue gun and gluing the pattern together? I have a frined who does this all the time.

Sorry about the coupons, I can't help there.
