I had this brilliant idea last night to start a costume gemach, or has it been done? (I don't think we have one in CH) I myself have about 8-10 costumes of different sizes that I have collected over the years & I sometimes have to spend a lot to get something decent & it only gets worn a couple of times (I have 2 boys & 2 girls). I think people would love to borow a costume for a small fee, clean it when they are done & return it. What do you think?

Its a great idea. Even if there is already one in your area I could imagine the more the merrier. If gemach A doesn't have what you are looking for, you can go to gemach B. And I am sure there are endless numbers of families with costumes sitting around that they would love to donate.

I think I'll start gathering costumes right after Purim so that by next year I'll have plenty.
