It's that time of year, and Santa Claus is everywhere. If you want to be part
of the Santa scene, now is the time to find your big red suit.
With prices for complete costumes starting at $23, making your own may not be
the most cost effective approach. Then again, you definitely get what you pay
for, and making an outfit for yourself allows you to customize it. We'll tell
you how to meet your Santa clothing needs either way, and at a price you can
afford.
BUYING A SANTA SUIT
The full cost of a Santa outfit includes the base price, any accessories that
you'll have to purchase separately and shipping & handling. If your budget
is tight, be sure to account for all of these before making your
final selection.
The cheapest... er... most inexpensive costumes we found were less than £10. (Click here for up-to-date currency conversions.) Judging by the photo, these might even make good pajamas once your Santa days are over.
The companies below have some of the best Santa costume prices to be found anywhere. You should easily be able to suit up for $55 or less:
