Only 10 days to Halloween! Time is running low now, but if you haven’t bought costumes for your kids yet you can now find some excellent deals. Although inventory is low or sold out on many popular children’s costume styles, there are plenty still to pick from.
Delivery Time is now of most concern. Be sure to review retailer’s delivery commitments. We recommend ordering by Oct. 23 to take advantage of economy shipping rates. Some sites are committing to Halloween delivery if you order by Oct. 26, but we think this is a bit risky.
Below, we researched the sales and promotions one more time, so you can see at a quick glance where to shop for the best deals and greatest confidence.
