FAQ

How do I Search?

There are three ways in which you may find the items you are looking for.

1) If you are not exactly sure what you want, you may use the Complete Catalog button on the left side of the screen. This will prompt main categories on our website along with pictures depicting some of the items carried within these categories. This will assist you in navigating to your desired product area of interest.

2) If you have a general idea but are still not exactly sure what you want and would prefer to browse, you may click the buttons on the left side of the page for some of the main department in our online store (Adult Birthday, Boys Birthday, Girls Birthday, Costume Shop, etc.). With each main category a sub-category will appear on the next page. Click on your desired sub-category until you reach your desired product field. Our site allows you to browse to a specific search.

3) If you already know what you are looking for and would like to quickly search specific products, simply type in the item number, or descriptive keyword into the search box (located on the bottom left corner of every page). Press enter or click the “go” button to begin your search. A page will list products that match these keywords. Please note, a keyword search may bring up items that include the keyword within an item’s description and may not necessarily list the exact item you are looking for first (unless you know the specific item number or specific description).

a. Singular versions of words are more likely to get a response than plural, i.e. search for “pirate,” rather than “pirates.”

b. If you are still not getting the results you want, verify there are no misspelled words. For example, “Spongebob” (correct) versus “Sponge Bob” (incorrect).


How can I find information about an item?

If you find an item you are interested in and would like to know more about that item, you can click the details button to see and extended description of the item. This extended description will typically include information such as: what is included, the quantity included, the item’s dimensions, and extended suggestions for use. You can also click on the thumbnail picture at any time to see an enlarged view of the item.

You also have the ability to view a general sizing chart for general costume sizes.

If you would like further information on product, please send us an email and we would happy to assist you in any way we can help.


How do I determine if a costume is the correct size?

If there are different sizes available, you will see each of these different sizes listed. If there is no size listed or the item indicates that it is a standard size, it is a one-size fits most. Different manufacturers may vary their sizing. Most costume descriptions indicate the proper sizing for that specific manufacturer. Please see out General Sizing Chart to determine the size best fit for you. If you are in doubt or fall between the sizes indicated, it is usually best to order the larger size.

Note: Body suit costumes (like superheroes and felines) are meant to be a tighter fitting costume.

Please note: For children trick or treating in colder climates: It is best to purchase a larger size as children will most likely be wearing clothing underneath their costume. This allows you room to layer up warmer clothes underneath while still being able to see the full costume. (Pants and sleeves may be longer when a larger size is order but can be rolled or pined for a better fit.)


How do I know if an item is in stock?

If an item is in stock you will be able to order it and specify a quantity. If an item is out of stock it will stated on the product page and you will not be able to order it.
