In love? Attached to the kids? Want to make a date of Halloween? Build on that relationship. Two people can make an amusing pair of costumes that are,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], well, literally attached.
Multicultural and Other Halloween Costumes Using Free,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Recycled Cardboard Boxes
For instance, think high-tech. One person can be a computer and the other a computer monitor. Make both costumes cheaply with markers and free cardboard boxes. On Halloween night, stay attached--with an electrical cord.
Starting with the holidays, it is both politically correct and very easy to wrap a cardboard box in a recognizable holiday wrapping. One person can “be” a Christmas present,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], another can “be” a Kwanza present, and a third can “be” a Hanukkah present.
Food offers another rich thematic vein for almost-free Halloween costumes. Two people can dress as Domino Pizza boxes. Or, consider candy bars. One can dress as a Snickers candy bar, and another as Twix, Kit-Kat or another favorite.
It's possible to create a two-person get-up for Halloween using the cheapest of recycled materials. The following costume ideas for parents and children, couples, or friends are all based on using recycled cardboard boxes. Why? Boxes are plentiful and free. And, for those going solo, here are 57 more ideas for almost-free cardboard box costumes.
As a variation on the train theme, think train and caboose. The parent can dress in a cardboard box costume as the train, and the child in a smaller cardboard box costume as a red caboose. Or, if the kids rule the roost, then the parent

Boats and Tugs: Almost-Free Costumes for Two People (Using Cardboard Boxes)
The holidays, food and animals are all fun themes. And Halloween costumes made of cardboard boxes can be made much more cheaply than buying Christmas presents, taking the family out to dinner or feeding the family dog.
Nostalgic or literary parents and their offspring might dress up in oblong, box-based costumes painted to look like that much-beloved, rapidly-disappearing cultural staple: books. One person could dress as an ancient tome, and the other as an Amazon Kindle.
Halloween-goers with a healthy attitude might dress as a candy bar (see above) and the other as a square container of dental floss (wearing a hat of spooled white rope to resemble the floss). Or, making a slightly more obscure and judgmental reference, one person can dress as a pizza box, and the other as a bathroom scale. It's hardly a laughing matter, but one person might create a box-costume as bottle of medicine, and another as a syringe, to accompany someone in a H1N1 swine flu virus costume.
Extended families of up to 26 members can each paint cardboard boxes to look like books in an encyclopedia set, ranging from “A” to “Z.” Religiously-oriented couples might want to fashion a costume as Exodus, Deuteronomy, or two other favorite books of the Bible. Or, join the Halloween circus as a two-person, four-legged animal. (Hint: tape a few big boxes together; wear matching tights.) Think donkey, horse or zebra, but don’t try to make Clifford the large red dog unless someone happens to have a lot of furry red material at hand.
Young kids and mom or dad might make matching cardboard box costumes of a small tug and an ocean liner, attached by a rope. (Not recommended as suggestion for teenagers and parents.) Busy two-career couples who want to be together,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but sometimes go in different directions can wear cardboard box costumes of attached train cars -- preferably pulling in the same direction.
