One of the characters on the Office put three black discs on his white shirt and said that he had been three-hole punched. It was cute. I like the witch idea - capes are one size fits all! There are some other classics: wear all black w/cat ears/nose, or a black dress with pale make-up and fangs. Grab a tie-dyed shirt and some old jeans (bell-bottoms?) and go as a hippie, or throw on some make-up and be a vampire hippie. If your mom has any sort of long, flowy skirt, she could throw that on with a blouse and maybe a vest, put a scarf on her head and wear a bunch of costume jewelry as a gypsy.
I think that many local stores (like Sprawl... er Wal-Mart) have inexpensive plus size costumes, or at least inexpensive accessories that can dress up jeans/skirt and/or blouse, depending on what you have. Personally, I found fishnets in my size, and my Doc Martins almost fit in the calf, so...
