Today, my Halloween costume finally showed up in the mail. Their consolation for a late delivery? A 50 cent discount. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I excitedly checked the mail to see if my Halloween costume finally arrived. It didn't. I live in an isolated city, so finding a costume by any other means than the Internet was impossible. I spent over $100 for a costume that I won't even get to wear this year. FML
Today, I was excited to finally receive my Halloween costume in the mail after the one I ordered back in September got lost in transit. Upon reaching my mailbox, I saw the lock had been broken off and my new costume had been stolen. The party is tomorrow. FML
Today, my 3 year old daughter's Halloween costume finally got delivered. FML
Today, I bought a Halloween costume for my cat. FML
Today, I finished making an awesome costume for a Halloween party my crush was attending. I then checked the invite and found out the party was last night. FML
Today, my company had a Halloween party. I was so excited seeing as our company never does anything, so I pulled out all the stops with my costume. I was the only one who got dressed up. FML
Today, one of my neighbors dressed up in the exact same costume as me. Every house I go to refuses to give me candy because my neighbor has already been there. FML
Today, I spent two hours driving all over town looking for a store that sold pumpkins. When I finally found some, I was charged ten dollars per pumpkin. Later, I went to my town's annual Halloween festival and discovered they were giving pumpkins away for free. FML
Today, I asked my girlfriend to get a bunch of candy for our first Halloween at our new house, so she got $60 worth. We got into an argument about who was going to give it out. It’s now 9 p.m. No one came to our door all night. FML
Today, after a stressful shift at work, I bought three bags of candy to hand out to trick-or-treaters tonight. I didn’t realize until I got home that one bag had a hole in it, and there were three empty M&M wrappers inside. My grocery store sucks. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

This is why you don't wait until the week before to buy your costume. This is also why you pay the extra $10 or so for faster shipping.

You can still scare little kids.

Oh, this happens... I've seen people in America purchase a costume in advance a month or more ahead of time from Japan because they want it very well made. Sometimes those costumes don't show up until Christmas, even with the highest quality of shipment being paid for. And what's sad is the seller makes it seem like it's all the buyer's fault for whatever the reason...

YDI for not using the five finger discount to buy one.

Did you order it from platinumcostumes.com? Same thing happened to me when I ordered my daughter's halloween costime from there. I ordered it 2 1/2 mos before halloween and it was delivered (luckily) 2 days before halloween. It said 10-12 business days on their site. And they never returned any of my emails and calls went straight to an automated message that they never returned either. They suck. Of course they processed my cc payment the same day as my order. Go figure
