So, what will you be giving out this year? Snickers bars? Baby Ruths? Reese's Peanut Buttercups?

We'll give out the same treats as last year. I just have to make sure the little rascals take only one. :biggrin:

Our neighbor works for a candy company and brings home a few cases of candy. Thankfully it is the junk I do not like, (non chocolate). The kids seem to love us they get an entire handful from us if not more. Then as the evening is coming to a close I give a lot of my kids candy away. I re-candy. :biggrin: I just can not justify having 10 pounds of candy in the house.

If a little blonde girl with Stickum™ on her hands shows up at your door, be nice to her.

Will she have a chainsaw in the other hand? :wink:

The bite size Snickers, Milkyways, Kitkats etc. are all very popular. I like to come to the door wearing my "bubba teeth". As I hand out candy, I remind the kids "don't forgit to brush yer teef, or elth you'll look like thith". (A little public service message along with their treats)

I grab a couple king size bags of Lindt truffles from BJ's.
The little buggers love those.

There is little funnier than Pollack doing Walken. Although Jay Mohr doing Pollack doing Walken is close.

Anyway, with tongue firmly implanted in cheek, I would figure those "legendary" apples with razor blades would be de rigueur around here.

I grab one bag of everything chocolate at the drug store and toss in a few non-chocolate things. So far the candy bin includes m&m, kit kat, tootsie roll pops, body parts, twizzlers, twix, 3 musketeers, snickers, hersheys cookies'n'creme, reese's peanut butter cups, baby ruth, jolly rancher, heath, almond joy, reese's pieces, whoppers, and creepy peeppers. Need to go find a place to get more of the creepy haloween-looking stuff.

Only problem is I grab one every time I walk past the bin. At this rate, there miight'n't be any left for the little tricksters.

Man, if I was a kid again, I'd dress up three times to go to your house! I remember a house down the road (wealthy folk) gave out single dollar bills.

Didn't cost much more than bags of chocolate bars. Bought online in bulk case of 72 each. Delivered to the door for $54.70, I usually spend around $50.00

Just think for a moment about the emotional damage you inflict upon yourslf going to Walmart for candy.

The Holloween aisle is a mess and crowded.

You wait in a long line to be greeted at the check-out with a sneer because you interrupted the clerks personal phone call.

You get to your car and there is a cart wedged in the front grill and a door ding on your rear quarter panel.

When you get home you notice you've been gone almost two hours.

You should probably eat some of the chocolate for comfort. :thumbup1:

Unfortunately I'll be on a foot patrol through housing. Also, since we live off base in Japan we won't get any Trick or Treaters anyway.

That is awesome. That is exactly what I'd love my kids to get when they go door to door. Though I have to tell you when I was a kid if I got fruit snacks you would have gotten eggs and TP. :lol:

Seriously, though Sue, good form!

There's a use for that canned goo. What kid's going to take the time to whip up a creamy TOBS lather with their shavemac?

Your phone is off and I know church is over. My kids are on the way over now, they want to trick or treat early. Thanks now I have to get my own kids something if their grandma a few streets over is giving gifts to all the neighbors.

Round my way the little bu99ers will be getting apples with my used DE's in...... and think themselves lucky! In my day trick or treating was not the done thing and I hate it, does no one else feel like it's A). Extortion? & B). Not a good message when you've taught kids not to talk to strangers (It's alright as long as it's on Halloween and you threaten the old guy down the street first....).

Frankie Boyle told the best joke, that I shan't repeat here.... but he was right!

Better that than having your car paintwork scratched or windows smashed if you don't give the sods their protection money.

Our yobs have different ideas for the imported hallowe'en.

Following on from the above, Shildren today don't know how lucky they are, in my day.....

"Well we had it tough. We used to have to get up out of the shoebox at twelve o'clock at night, and LICK the road clean with our tongues. We had half a handful of freezing cold gravel, worked twenty-four hours a day at the mill for fourpence every six years, and when we got home, our Dad would slice us in two with a bread knife.

&

Right. I had to get up in the morning at ten o'clock at night, half an hour before I went to bed, eat a lump of cold poison, work twenty-nine hours a day down mill, and pay mill owner for permission to come to work, and when we got home, our Dad would kill us, and dance about on our graves singing "Hallelujah." ".

Whatever said is said in jest, but to annoy those kids is truly the best. :behead: :devil2:

Evil. Pure evil. :biggrin:

We'll give out a mix of chocolates - whatever the kids don't eat we take into work for the community candy jar.
