Dressing up for Halloween is a lot of fun, but waiting in line at the costume store and dropping $50 on a purple wig you'll wear once isn't.
This year, instead of buying a costume, why not just dig through your closet and wear something you already have? We think you'll be surprised how many everyday items can be turned into great Halloween costumes.
To help get you started, we've rounded up seven amazing costume ideas that can be easily created using your existing wardrobe. This Oct. 31, spend all your extra cash on candy, not capes.
