Mummy
This cheap Halloween costume idea will only cost you as much as a roll of toilet paper. Wear white clothing and roll the toilet paper around you for the mummified effect. To make it scarier, use ketchup or red food coloring.

Vampire

Static Cling
Do you have socks and dryer sheets? Great, that is all you need to be static cling! Pin the socks and sheets to your clothing however you can and mess up your hair. Balloons can also be helpful for this Halloween costume.

Grapes

Christmas Tree
If you would just rather bypass Halloween and go right to Christmas, this costume is for you! The best part is, all you need is last year’s Christmas decorations. Wear a green dress or any other green clothing items, wrap garland around yourself, stick some ornaments to your clothes, and wear a large red bow on your head!

Scarecrow
You won’t be able to actually scare anyone with this cheap Halloween costume, but it will get the job done. Wear a plaid or flannel shirt, jeans, and a sun hat. For added effect, draw a scarecrow face with eyeliner on yourself and carry some cheap, fake sunflowers!
