    Holly was so wrapped up in her argument that she wasn’t LISTENING! She should be thanking Alix backwards & forwards!

    Let’s be honest: how many people really think Holly has won this argument?

    Maybe Mo-om will embarrass her so much, she won’t want to shop for a costume after all.

    Time for mom to find out that almost all girl costumes make them look like Ho’s.

    It’s sad, isn’t it? I looked all over for a tasteful costume and there are not many of them for females.

    Agreed. If a girl wants a really great costume, she has to make it herself these days. Of course, with the cheap materials used in store-bought costumes, everyone is better off making their own.

    I at least like it that the girl’s have temporarily forgotten the ‘Halloween Candy’. I do agree with everyone concerning ‘Halloween’ costumes!!!!

    Neither is my answer. Holly said shop creatively… Does not said buy a costume. My guess is they may shop at Salvation Army…My kids do. My son created a badass Vampire look for about 25$ but then is 18 not 13 and it is his own money. Make wonder for a budget lol!

    I’ve seen the idea for SOME female Halloween costumes and I always groan since there is NO WAY on earth that I’m gonna wear one of them. So, I typically go for the male version, which is much more decent, or I find a way to make it myself.

    An orange jumpsuit and borrow a pit of cuffsfrom Phill. That should please Holly.

    Just to get my female friend going I was going to dress up as a lady of the evening.

    PS I’m a guy. My hairy legs would have ruined the "look’

    When I was young my sainted mother made all my costumes and her work was above professional quality. One time I went as Professor Fate from The Great Race. She researched the movie (this was before the Internet) and made an authentic costume, complete with top hat and a realistic moustache and eyebrows. The upshot was that I could never understand why somebody would go to a store and pay money to get a costume that looked nothing like Spider Man for example but which had a picture of Spider Man on it.

    Val is a mom. Moms always win in the end.
    Remember YOUR mom?
    I rest my case.

    Absolutely! I made all 3 of my grandkids’ costumes – mermaid, Peter Pan (from the book, not the Disney film) and Catwoman (from latest film).
