Where to buy...?

I'm working on some DIY costume ideas for DS. Where is the best place to buy solid colored sweats for toddlers? Pants and a hoodie would be perfect. Cheap is a must. Orange, brown, or gray are my preferred colors.

    @kimbus22 - some sort of animal. Giraffe, elephant, or lion. I already have a lion hat (thanks, Ikea), so that's the most likely, but he is CRAZY about giraffes and elephants.

    I found a cute giraffe DIY idea online - take brown sweat pants and a hoodie, add ears on the hoodie, and then use masking tape to make the giraffe markings on the sweats. It actually looked really good in the picture.

    Elephant...I don't know. Gray sweats with some sort of elephant hood/hat, but I can't decide what he would actually keep on his head.

    The only reason we're even doing costumes is because there is a carnival at church. I'm not big on Halloween, DS will be out of town, and we had already decided not to Trick or Treat. I don't see him leaving any head pieces/hats on either, so I'm not investing money in something that is going to make him miserable.

    I actually think the "costumes" they have at Old Navy this year are pretty cute. For boys, the ones I remember were a zebra, a dinosaur (I believe) and a monster, which is what I'm thinking for DS. They're soft fleece-like material, and basically just a sweat suit with a hood and some extra padding. And with them being on sale right now, they're about $16!

    Huh...I went to ON yesterday and didn't see them. I remember they had really cute ones last year.

    I couldn't seem to find them online either, so I used the search function. Here's the link: https://m.oldnavy.gap.com/category.html?search=costumes&pdn=

    We are doing this tulle ghost idea. White tulle and those mesh top things. Pin some black felt eyes and mouth. Done. Then for xmas cards I am taking the eyes and mouth and putting in a straight line. Candy cane leggings and a red scarf and she will be a snowman in the card. If baby is here by then I will "wrap" her and put a bow on her in front of her sister for the picture.
