Are you tired of shelling out your hard-earned money for a Halloween costume every year, only to have it collect dust in your closet? WATTS Costume Rentals is here to solve that problem for you. You can book an appointment over the phone and find a costume that you’ll love. It’s been in business since 1935 and has over 10,000 different costumes for you to try.

Orphan Aid Thrift Store

For some cheap Halloween costumes or decorations, we’d recommend visiting a dollar store like Dollar Tree. They have some basic accessories that you can mix with the wardrobe you already have to make a quick and easy costume. For instance, some cat ears with an all-black outfit will turn you into a spooky Halloween kitty. Is a black cat a little bit of a basic Halloween costume? Yes, but we weren’t the ones who told you to wait ‘til the last possible second to put together a costume. Plus, the prices are so cheap you won’t feel bad if you never wear the costume again.

Address: 4567 Lougheed Highway
