You need to run over to Target.com and this link:

They’ve got some terrific ones, for under $20! (I think there’s also a sale this week, too.)

In reply to Cindy Brick. Thanks Cindy. I did check Craigslist, but no luck. I did put a request out on the moms forum though. You never know what might turn up. If it doesn't I think a $55 splurge is in my future.

In reply to kat. We have an Old Navy very close to us, so that might be a viable option. Thanks for commenting!

In reply to jennifer p. That's too funny about the cats! I tried to do that years ago with mine, but he refused to take part in the festivities. I looked for costumes on eBay, but didn't find exactly what I'm looking for. I think a splurge is in the works!

Try Thredup.com, if they don’t have costumes up now they will very soon.

Try Craigslist or a baby moms forum before you purchase! Someone may have had the same idea a few years ago, and now wants to sell their costume. (You can also put up an ‘I want to buy’ ad.)

Then hey, if it thrills your soul, $55 isn’t THAT much of a splurge. Go ahead with a clear conscience.

Hey I am a long time reader but never comment. commenting now to say that I just happened to be at old navy which just happened to be having a sale on baby Halloween costumes for 25% off, and they were adorable. I’m not 100% certain if they come in all (super teeny) baby sizes, but it could be worth a look …

i dont have kids yet,i have cats.and i have bought them costumes over the years.they are not that expense. obviously the cats hate it.but its so cute.if i were you i would try ebay.they usually have good deals.and then you could resell it when you’re done with it.
on the other hand you’re frugal in alot of ways .so if you want to spend some money you should .enjoy it.i’m sure he will be adorable in anything you get him.by the way,love your blog
