Today is Halloween -- remember?! If you're are scrambling to get a costume for you and the kids, forget going to a costume shop, the only thing that's left is a dirty strawberry slutcake that's five sizes too big. What to do? Our best tips for super easy costumes -- and you don't even have to leave the house.

1. Dress up as your friend/husband: Pair up with someone you know and dress up as each other. Highlight the person's style, something they like to do and imitate them.

2. Take a hairband and glue a screw on it. What are you? A little screwy.

3. Backwards person: Put your clothes on backwards, add touches like a pair of sunglasses on the back of your head or something with a zipper that will show up on your back.

4. Sky: Wear light blue clothing, add clouds with cotton balls or cut out cloud shapes from construction paper.

5. Country Club Biotches: Short skirts, golf or tennis shoes, a collared shirt, visor and big hair. Add red nails and voila!

6. Tourist: Don a Hawaiian shirt and strap a camera around your neck. And don't forget to carry a map!

7. Movie Star: Dress up, add some oversized sunglasses and adapt the attitude.

8. Nerd: So easy. Pull your pants up to your navel, tie your belt too tight, wear an ugly plaid shirt and put some tape around a pair of glasses. Done.

9. Trash: Take a large trash bag -- who doesn't have those? Cut out holes for your arms and legs, bunching the top around your neck. Add crumpled up paper inside the bag for added volume.

10. Beauty Queen: Use an old formal dress, make a Miss Congeniality (or whatever) sash from a strip of fabric. Does your daughter have a little toy crown? Go for it.

Have more ideas? Tell us ... we are all scrambling just as much as you are.

Dress normally, write on a sheet of paper (or if you feel crafty, make a picket sign) that says “Nudist On Strike!”

A great idea for a costume would be a vampire costume. All you hae to do is get some black clothing and a little make-up and you’re set!

I’ve seen the costumes, they are not appropriate, neither in the title nor the costumes. A pre teen in thigh highs and heels? A chambermaid??? Are you insane? Shame on you AOL.
