Hawaiian theme

I am due to go to a 30th birthday and twins 1st birthday (mother and 2 twin girls all born on the same day but different year of course!) party which has a hawaiian theme. Managed to get fixed up via borrowing other peoples fancy dress outfits myself, but having huge difficulties in finding something for a man without paying much!! Had thought it would be easy to find a colourful shirt in primark/charity shops, but after much trawling I have not found one for less than £10!!!

Any ideas???

    I went to Matalan yesterday in Birmingham and they had some cracking hawaiian shirts (£8) and shorts (don't look at price of these but can't imagine they'd be too much either!) - worth a look if there's one local to you....!!!!!

    oops clicked enter too soon...i bought some lei's, glittery palm trees and flowery flip flops from Birthdays (the card shop) in Sutton Coldfield for a beach party last year we went to, they were only cheap (the lot only came to about a tenner!!) - we too had the same difficulties if find stuff but now i keep coming across it!!

    Might be worth trying TKMaxx as well - they've also have some mad shorts and shirts in their recently!!if you can stand the searching that is....?!!??
