So it’s time to find a Halloween Costume for you and your family. �Hopefully everyone has an idea of what they want to be. �So now the search for the best price becomes your main concern.

I can tell you from experience that the SAME EXACT costume can be priced completely different at a number of different stores. In fact, I have seen the same costume priced as much as $15-$30 more at a different major retailer’s website. �So how do you know when you are getting a deal? �It’s time to price it out!

Step #1: �Find the exact costume you want. �(If there are similar version you are ok with too, that just makes your job easier.)

Step #2: Here are all of the stores I would search for that exact costumes. �These hand-picked stores by me are stores that either drop prices regularly or have coupon codes on a regular basis to drop your costume price.

Step #3: �After checking for the costume on the sites I mentioned above, more than likely you should have a price point for the costume. For example, after checking the links above and searching for the best price on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Donatello Toddler Costume, this is what I found:

BuyCostumes: $29.99— WHAT?!!
HalloweenCostumes: $19.99
SpiritHalloween.com: $24.99
CostumeCraze.com: $22.94
Walmart.com: $16.97 –LOWEST PRICE
Target.com: $17.00 – If you have a RedCard, this price would actually be lowest.
Amazon.com: $17.42

Ok, can you see the drastic difference between all of these places?? �Remember that�these prices are before any coupon code they might have. �So the cheapest place might change once you take that into effect. �But the point I am trying to make is that you can’t just buy the costume as soon as you see it. �More than likely another store has it cheaper—and with this example, almost $15 cheaper!!

Now imagine if you are shopping for 4-6 people in your family. �That $15 per costume adds up fast!

MONEY-SAVING TIP: �Any time you see me post a sale for Halloween Costumes on Freebies2Deals.com, do a quick check for the costumes you are searching for. �Since you will have �already done those 3 steps above, you will know the lowest starting price available for each costume you need to purchase. �If you see your costume drop lower than that, you will know it is time to buy it! �And you will have a calm mind knowing that you really did get an awesome price on it!

Does this take some time for each costume? �Yep, it will take you about 5 Minutes or so for each costume to find your lowest price point. �But if you could save up to $15 on each costume by taking 5 minutes, would it be worth it??

  1. EBAY has some great costume deals as well. However, a lot come from out of the country so it can take 3-4 weeks to come so order NOW!

  2. I too would recommend Ebay, I cross referenced between them and CostumeDiscounters.com to put my kids costumes together this year.

  3. I get all my kids costumes at kid to kid. I got 3 costumes for $20 this year. I sold back the ones I bought there last year for $11. I found all the costumes my kids requested. My 6 year old is going to be batman, my 3 year old is going to be spiderman, and my baby is going as superman. They are all marvel costumes. They had a lot of Disney costumes too. They obviously don’t have Elsa or Anna or Lego because those just came out.
