Where can I find a green shirt like Steve's from Blue's Clues?

My 2 year-old daughter wants to be Steve from Blue's Clue's for Halloween!  It seems easy enough to find a long-sleeved green striped shirt for her to wear, but really I have no clue.  I checked on Wal-mart and Kmart online and didn't find what I was looking for.  We have an old Blue costume which would be so much easier, but she wants to be Steve!  Any suggestions on where to look?  Maybe I could check out the thrift stores around town.  I know my oldest daughter used to have a Handy-Dandy Notebook just like Steve's but I have no idea where it went.  Maybe the dreaded and oh-so-messy playroom?!  Anyways, if anyone has a shirt similar to this (size 2T/3T) they are willing to sell I might consider that too.  Thanks!

Could you find a long sleeve green shirt?  Then maybe glue or sew on some darker colored fabric strips for the stripes, or green duct tape?  It's only a Halloween shirt :P

Thanks for the help ladies.  And I really don't want to spend a lot of $ for a costume lol.  I may even look for a short sleeved one (we'll be layering anyways, it's always cold for Halloween!).  Or I may just find a light green shirt and use something like a sharpie or fabric paint, or tape for the dark green stripes.

Green painters tape would make a good contrasting stripes and would be easy to remove.

Ebay

*LrCg*

We got ours on Ebay last year (my son was Steve, DD was blue).  Anyways as Halloween got closer the prices went up.  We ended up with a short sleeve one and I had to pay $15 which I thought was a lot however it was 1 size too big and because DS loved Steve so much he wore it all last year and again this year so I got my moneys worth.  We're in Ohio so Halloween is always cold so I just bought a dark green shirt at Walmart ($3) to layer underneath it and it looked just fine.
