Get a White Trash Outfit for Halloween
Like to kick back on the couch and watch a dramatic episode of Jerry Springer? Love Joy’s flesh-baring outfits on My Name is Earl? Feel a little nostalgic when Achy Breaky Heart comes on the radio?

Thrift stores and costume stores, while often abundant in costume choice, can be crowded, over-stocked, and difficult to find specific items in. It could take you several days just to compile all necessary clothing and accessories for your costumes. When making purchases on Amazon.com, though, shopping is fun, easy, and fast. The site’s easily-navigated search engine, detailed product reviews, and suggestions can help save you hours of browsing through stores and leave you with more time to focus on other aspects of the party!

Wigs, Robes and Shoes
If you’re not in a Daisy Duke mood, you can always awe with a classic trailer-park wife look. Bright turquoise wavy hair has an adjustable inner cap and top quality fibers to conform to your head. Pair them with the loose-fitting, Traditional Chinese Dragon Robe, left slightly open for a wicked tease. This 4.5 star rated robe is silky to the touch, and gorgeously embellished.

Amazon.com also features a range of trinkets for prizes and party games, and you can even purchase food items, like pork ‘n beans or Cheez Whiz for fun party snacks.
Find Your Costume
Running around to different stores to complete your costume can be a real drag, but with Amazon, full outfits can be put together in moments for a time-saving, cost-effective planning strategy.

What’s best about purchasing these items, of course, is that they’re versatile enough to use at other times!

Now that you’ve managed to put together a complete costume in a matter of minutes, you can spend more time and money saved focusing on other aspects of the party. Take the time to bake up some Spam or canned sausages, ladle some beer-infused punch, or make a “pin the beer can on the hillbilly” board for more party fun.
