Never work around kids or animals if you don’t want to be upstaged.  Chilean President Gabriel Boric was able to keep a straight face somehow as a little boy dressed as superman rode in circles around him during a press conference.

The child is reportedly in the care of Gabriel Boric’s mom but was front and center at a recent press conference.  And social media is buzzing about the kid ! Check out the story from Redditt . Many are marveling at the fact that Boric was able to keep a straight face and carry on.

All this talk about kids in costumes, makes us think of Halloween.  Here are some ideas about where you can buy your Superman (or any other) costume.

  Halloween costumes can be expensive, but there are ways to stay on budget. One way is by snagging your costume at Goodwill. Charlotte has a ton of awesome Goodwill stores to choose from. If you’re lucky, you might even see a full set for super cheap. I have used Goodwill before to make my own DIY costume from select pieces. It’s a great way to find unique pieces on a dime. They offer costume props, makeup, false lashes, and even hair coloring for way less than other retail stores.
