Why buy something? Have the kids make their costumes...
Simple ideas...
Ghost = A sheet with holes cut in it for the eyes
Hobo = old clothes with rips and patches, a bandanna tied in a sack on a stick, some dirt (makeup or paint) on face
Gypsey = bright colored clothing, skirts, lots of costume jewelry, scarfs
Robot = boxes decorated with aluminum foil with a "keypad" (drawn on paper)
Black Eyed Peas = using black facepaint, write a letter "P" around each eye
Quarterback = draw a quarter on a large sheet of paper. Tape it to the kid's back.
Smartie Pants = get a bag of Smarties candy - tape the rolls of Smarties to the kid's pants
