Can anyone recommend a really unique, easy and cheap Halloween costume for my 7 y/o son?
We LOVE Halloween. For the past 4 years, he has entered a costume contest in our neighborhood. He won first place when he was a scarecrow, dracula, a robot (that I made him) and came runner up when he was a pirate. However, this year, we are stumped as to what he should be.

A mime! Black pants, black or black and white striped shirt and maybe some red suspenders. White gloves ($1.50 at walmart), and some white face paint. Teach him some mime movements or let him see some on youtube, It’s cheap, easy, unique, and FUN!
How about a sheriff. See website below.
one of the munchkins from the Wizard of Oz, or a flying monkey
Mario, Sonic, or Yoshie
captain underpants=)
red cape, muscle shirt, whitie tighties and some black tights!
Here is a link to buycostumes.com, they have a huge sale on right now. Costumes under $15 (very affordable) but it sounds like you are very capable of creating your own costume, so check out the costumes here for some ideas as to what you can make.
