Girls, are you still working on thinking up the best Halloween costumes idea with your partner? Choosing between Greek Goddess Halloween costumes and Vampiress Halloween costumes? If you are in that situation, do not be worried because most of my friends are in the same situation too.

It is good that you now have the costumes and just need to wait for the last day of October but there is still some time for you to get a very good Halloween costume. I am going to give you some ideas right now so you may get your Halloween costumes by the end of today.

There are lots of choices for couple's costumes. If you two want to wear traditional couple's costumes, you may want to disguise as Frankenstein and his bride. They are the horror characters that people love very much.

For those who are going to be the bride of Frankenstein, you can buy an extremely long wig from most of the online Halloween costumes stores. It is also suggested that you pay attention to bolts lowered brow prosthetic. With some make-up, you will totally make yourself become that absolutely terrible appearance.

Another idea is to dress up like Vampire and Vampiress. They are also classical and horror characters. You will have lots of choices. You can choose to buy either an expensive one or just a lower-priced one. Of course there are some differences. The more you pay, the more detailed your Halloween costume will be. And you usually will be more unique because most people do not want to spend too much money on buying Halloween costumes. But I can say it is worth doing so because being unique and the focus of the crowd on Halloween parties is wonderful.

If you do not like the horror characters, you may want to consider putting on Greek Goddess Halloween costumes. The costumes are simple. You may only need a chiton and some props. You can even make one for yourself if your sewing skill is good. Other suggestion will be Mark Anthony and Cleopatra as well as Spartan and Queen Gorgo from the movie 300. I personally do not want to disguise as the latter one because the level of popularity will definitely be lower than the previous year's.

You can also be funny characters. How about dressing up something like "Lock and Key", "Bacon & Eggs" or "Ketchup and Mustard"? I would say they are fantastic and I can guarantee you will have lots of laughs around you on Halloween.

As I mentioned above, some people are not willing to pay too much money on Halloween costumes because they think that the costumes are rarely worn. You may be concerned about the same thing too. If you are, I also have some ideas for you. You can choose to buy the costumes of Caribbean Pirates. You can wear them at all festivals. Is it more cost-effective for you? It must be yes but the fact is that they are very common. You may not have too much fun with them.

Now you have some ideas and you may even have a target. I strongly recommend you to buy the Halloween costumes online. The reason is most people have bought their Halloween costumes from the real Halloween costumes stores already. Your target costumes may be out-of-stock now. So surf the Internet. It will be more possible for you to get the costumes.

I do not know which kind of costumes you are going to wear. But if you want to buy Greek Goddess Halloween costumes, I have an idea for you. You may find lots of choices on Greek Goddess Halloween Costumes 2008.

Baby Girl Newborn Pink Princess Halloween Costume (0-9 Months)

Customer Review: Size too big for 0-9 months!
Although the picture is cute and says for 0-9 months, the tag on the costume just says regular. When it was shipped to me, the label said 12-18 months so I called the company to get the correct size. They assured me that the only size they sell is 0-9 months, but the costume will clearly be too big for my 6 month old!


When November rolls around, just the thought of getting started on holiday greeting cards makes me groan. Not only is it about finding the time to do them, it's the cost. By the time you're done with cards, envelopes, photos and letters for each recipient, you can easily be into it for hundreds of dollars. That's why more and more of us are dropping out of the greeting card game for the holidays.

In my case, where once I might have sent out a hundred cards when I was first married, now I can barely address, stamp, and mail twenty. The other objection being heard more frequently is quite simply the waste of paper since most greeting cards end up in the garbage or recycling. So, to send Christmas cards or to not send Christmas cards-that's the dilemma.

The alternatives are to drop the tradition altogether (suitable for the humbugs among us), to send an E-card (the only truly "green" solution), which really only works for the computer savvy, or to continue sending cards following a few cost-cutting, eco-friendly, and time-saving tips.

Send Christmas postcards. The postage is about half the cost (27 cents vs 42 cents) of sending a regular size card and envelope, plus you consume less paper.

Create your own postcards using recycled cardstock. From one 8.5x11 sheet you can create two 4x6 postcards. To get four postcards, trim to 4.25x5.5. Add a Christmas motif to the front of the postcard using your laser printer and some classy clip art or digital photo, or rubber stamp an image right onto the card. On the back of the card print your message and the address information.

Order personalized photo Xmas postcards from an online store like Photoworks.com. The finished cards are shipped to you for addressing and mailing. Just upload the photos you want to use, drag and drop photos into suitable layout, add your holiday cheer and you're done! Takes about twenty minutes! Personalized Christmas postcards cost just under $1.25 each for 50.

Send photo cards. These are the ultimate time-savers because they do double-duty as a Christmas greeting and as a frame-able photo gift. The beauty of these cards is that they are less likely to be thrown away, hence a bonus for eco-friendly households. Choose an alternative Xmas color palette, such as brown and blue, light green and pink to give you more options for using the card later in a frame. Or, use a photo without the usual Christmas trimmings, like Santa hats and stockings, to get more mileage out of your photo. Try a happy winter scene for example or studio style black and white family portrait.

The cheapest option is to order photo cards printed on photographic paper (like Fugi paper or Kodak paper). They're flat like a photo print, not folded, but you still need to mail them in an envelope. Costs range from $0.80 to $1.00 each. For more upscale cards, you can find flat photo cards printed on matte cardstock starting at around $1.39 each. For conventional folded photo greeting cards, expect to pay around 2.50 each. However, in many cases you can customize both the inside AND outside of the card with your own photo and personalized greeting. If you think of these photo cards as being both card and gift at the same time, the cost is reasonable.
