So!
2 of my girls are really into My Little Pony. They want to be 2 of the characters for Halloween, but the costumes online and in store are pretty much a dress with the character's face on the torso. Kids weren't too happy about that, so I looked into getting them hats with the character's hair style and accessories (unicorn horn, colored hair, etc). Bumped into this site that does that, and more. Custom made cosplay stuff, you send in pics of the character and tell them your size, they'll make it for you. Hand made to order to your specs. I was showing the older of the 2 some pics of the hat and said MAYBE we'll have it made for her, and she got so excited she ran and told the younger one that Daddy was getting someone to MAKE them new costumes (even though I just said it was just a possibility at that point). They were jumping around and started singing My Little Pony songs. Even during dinner, the elder one kept mentioning how she was excited to dress up.
Whelp, my email for a quote for the costumes came back.
$220.
Per costume.
To use for 1 day.
I cannot be the jerk to tell them I'm not getting it though, they were too damn excited.
So my point it, anyone wanna buy a kidney? Liver? I'd sell my b@lls too, but apparently my kids took that already.
