    3 years ago I went to Spirit on Halloween Night and it was fancy dress only and the guys behind me in the queue were in normal clothes so they got boxes left out on Abbey St by some shop for recycling, and wore them. Very clever!!!

    I like costumes like that. When you just get a sheet or something and put it over your head, and BAM! you're a ghost. It's way more fun.

    Easiest and cheapest: Adam (or Eve) :D
    A a drunk naked girl trashing up the place: "Eve of Destruction"

    get some cardboard,paint it white and dress up as a milk carton like the one in the Blur video. only thing is it would be hard to manoeve all night. Someone dressed up as that one year in college and the poor chap kept getting in the way and bouncers having to ask him to move outta the way.

    I know a guy cellotaped a slice of bread to his chest and a slice of bread to his back, went to a halloween party and told everyone he was a sandwich.

    Best costume ever.

    put a big brown sheet over you and then cut out the weetabix slogan on a weetabix box and tie it to your chest.Then get one of those plastic knives and bit of tomato ketchup so it looks like you stabbed yourself in the chest-and hey presto you're a cereal killer. can be uses again to cos next year u can go as an all bran serial killer

    Two of yas go as Sylvester and Tweety and two go as Elmer Fudd and Bugs Bunny.

    Alternatively, just get boiler suits, make backpacks out of drink cans and cardboard boxes and go as The Ghostbusters.

    Eh....what has a box got to do with it either?!? Personally I have no problem with hot ladies dressing up in slutty nurses outfits. Works for me.
