But...but...what about the children?

What do the kids ever do for me??

I actually say this when they ask for donations for childrens hospital and stuff in stores. Very few people find it funny. I mostly get and uncomfortable squirms.

I also say "You know, I give all the time and those kids never call to say thank you" a lot.

well...they don't.

That reminds me of Groundhog Day, when Bill Murray catches the kid falling out of the tree and yells at him for never saying thank you.

I stopped buying candy. Each year the trick-or-treaters in my area got older and older. I mean I had fuckin ADULTS knocking on my door holding open a fuggin Safeway grocery bag. One bitch had the nerve to not even don a costume! Plus the heiffer must have weighed 350!

And you can't be gracious with some hoodrats. I would put the candy in a big bowl and when the kids came to the door I would just hold the bowl and tell them to pick out what they want. You can't do that with kids who've never had a damn thing or who haven't been taught manners. One little girl, cute as she could be, came to the door, and I held the bowl down at her level so she could choose her candy. Lil heifer proceded to grab a fistful of candy! I'm not talking that cheap penny candy either. I'm talking full size Snickers, Butterfinger, Mounds, Milky Way, Mr. Goodbar, the whole freakin line! I had to put her lil ass in check. And her triflin mama was standing right there.

Hahahahahahaha!

I hate that mess!

Last year was my first year in the house. I bought all this candy, and the lady next door said, "Girl, no one comes down this street." (It's a dead end).

It was my DUTY to finish it all!

I leave a help yourlself bucket outside, since were gone trick or treating. I know some licky kid gets the whole entire bucket. Oh Well.

I acutally thought of doing that to keep from having to jump up and hand out the candy every 5 minutes, but then thought better of it. The bucket wouldn't last 5 minutes on my porch. Someone would surely take off with the whole shebang.

Reminds me of the time when I and two of my best friends were sharing a row house in DC. It was my first Halloween out of college and living on my own. So I bought a whole box of full size Snickers anticipating an onslaught of trick-or-treaters because, afterall, this was a city street. I saw one lone boy about 10-12 walking the street in his costume. So I yelled to him, "Hey, little boy! I have candy over here!" He looked, and for the life of me, I don't know what the hell scared him, but he said, "UH UGH! I AIN'T COMIN OVA THERE!" I was so hurt...

The chocolate tempts me.

Two Halloweens ago, my kid refused to let me hold her candy bag, made me leave the room while she hid it and was literally talking in her sleep about how she doesn't trust me around her candy! I think she trusts me a bit more now... not that she has good reason.

I know. I tell my kids I have to inspect it very carefully and I put aside the stuff I want, and tell them this piece needs a better look. They now I'm full of shit. I'll have full blown acne from all the chocolate come Sunday.

When I was a kid and got back home after collecting all that junk, I would lay everything out on my bed. Than I would separate all the candy--all the Snickers in one pile, the Milky Ways in another, etc. Anything I didn't want, like apples, oranges, black jelly beans or black liquorice I would give to my dad.

I miss living in a house and getting to pass out candy

I live in an apartment complex and kids never go to those

Anywhoo....

Hey!! Remember back in the day when u had to take your candy to the hospital to get x-rayed before u could eat it???

Aaaahhh the good ol' days.

I was wondering about that. This is my first time living in an apartment so I don't know what to expect. There are a lot of kids in my apartment complex though so I'm going to buy some candy just in case. I just don't know how much to buy though because I don't know what to expect.

I know one thing though, I'm not buying any candy until the day of Halloween. I'm dieting and my weak ass will eat it if I have it beforehand.

When were living in Saudi Arabia when I was little, there was an apartment complex near my house in the compound we lived in where all the little Egyptian kids lived, that I used to play with. Me and my brother talked them into going trick or treating around the complex (no costumes or anything) but it was just something to do. Wide eyed and so excited our little friends followed our lead. Some people laughed when we went to their door, some got pissed, and some gave us whatever they had around their house. I do remember getting bananas and cheesecurls.

Can't wait to eat my bat shaped chocolate cookies, the roasted pumpkin, and the glass of cold milk ...

I used to do the same thing! It was fun to see how many of each candy I got. I remember once or twice, there was a couple down the street from where I lived. They used to give out pencils on Halloween, instead of candy. As a young kid, I didn't like that too well. I wanted candy - to hell with pencils!

i bought like ten bags of halloween candy. Man target had the cheapest prices on brand name candies! i mean like 2.45 for a bag of peanut buttercups!

my children dont celebrate Halloween, but have told me they are gonna go door to door so they can stock up the candy supplies in the lockers..... and they will split the spoils with me if I let them go.....and I'm actually thinking about it
