Some Recommended Searching Tips and Techniques
When using the search function, and in order to ensure a more successful search result and return, consider the following tips to get a better, and in some cases a wider range of results that may be relevant to your search parameters.
• Less is more: When searching for specific costumes linked to a theme do not over specify the search requirements, in other words put in a more general or generic search term. This will return a greater selection of items, and you will in all likelihood find exactly what you are looking for, with the bonus of having some additional items to choose from. Single words can also help in the search results, for example clown will return more than say for example circus clown, and so forth.
• Spelling, grammar and punctuation: Ensure that your spelling is correct for the specific theme search. Mistakes are easily made on a keyboard and even more so if you are searching from a device like an iPhone. If you are not happy with the amount of returned items check the spelling and layout of your search parameters. The singular form of your desired search parameters will provide a better return than the plural.
• You may also want to narrow your search, if you are looking for something specific, in which instance you could provide different words or similes of the search terms, as well as specifying more specific parameters if the search results are too vast for the amount of time you have to sift through them.
