One could simply say that it is for a costume.  Goodwill takes out ads
(at least here in Austin whenever halloween approaches) that explicitly
suggest the store as a good source of CD costumes, so it would seem
they are mellow about the concept.

Depending on your semantics of the word "costume", this explanation
has the advantage of being true, and is in any case probably more plausible
than that you're buying clothes for someone else.  (At least I always
have bad luck picking out clothes for other people, both stylewise
and fitwise.)
