Last year I was sifting through my nephew's candy to take out anything that was open or looked su ious ... and someone had given him religious literature![]()

i still trick or treat
maybe ill come to your houses
I bet Jimbo gives out tons of candy that stick to your teeth and pull out your fillings...
Probably slips a business card in with his other hand.
You flash them?
That's my play. The last time I gave out candy, I think I got 8 doorbell rings all night, and got stuck with candy I don't like, because that's what I buy to distribute (so that I won't eat it). A lot of folks go to their schools or churches now for trick or treat. Fine with me. I bring home takeout, and sequester myself in the master suite until about 9PM watching TV, then I only turn on a few lights after that.
We had house in our neighborhood that gave out toothbrushes; my mom always made us go there! When my youngest was in a Christian school they gave us fortune cookies with Bible verses to hand out. My all time favorite Halloween candy is Smarties---my kids pick them out of their loot bags and save them for future "bribing".
The big kids who don't dress up annoy me. I don't mind giving them candy, but if they're old enough to get a job and buy their own damn candy, they have to work for it a little. And I get bored with teenage girls just dressing ty, like that's a costume, but that's another thread.![]()
We will probably hide out too.There's a Spurs road game that night, right?
We'll just hide upstairs. I'm not going to deal with the dogs going crazy every time I have to answer the door. I might put a free-for-all bucket of candy on the doorstep or something![]()
Well, I know where I'll go before watching the game.
not if I don't get there first!
Don't you hate when these 15 year old kids come trick or treatin' and don't even have a costume on. That pisses me off!!!
Dammit someone already posted that....but it still pisses me off.
Raptors opening night at home.
One of the joys of living in a gated subdivision. The only kids who come by are our neighbors.
This solves that problem very quick.

Snickers, Almond Joys, Hersheys, and Milky Ways
We made little loot bags to hand out filled with gummy candy that look like severed body parts, suckers, and the Junior Mints/chocolate crayon mix.

approves this message.
FWD with the one-timer.
I am the same way. I remember whenever I got crappy candy as a kid, I promised that when I gave away candy, it would all be good. Sure enough, my first halloween in my own place, I spent a ton of money on candy..all the good stuff. All brand name.Blech! I don't want to be known as the house that gives out crappy candy!![]()
When I was a kid I always hated the people who would give out pecans. I would look at them like pecans??....SERIOUSLY??? I guess thats what happens when you live on the west side of S.A.
I used to get pecans in my bag all the time. Pissed me off because we had two pecan trees in the backyard, I didn't need any extras. But those are still infinitely better than those nasty orange peanut things![]()
I liked in Bad Santa how Billy Bob Thorton puts candy corn in the cubby kids advent calender, lol
With as expensive as pecans are at HEB, especially with Thanksgiving coming up ... I'd kill for a bag of pecans.
I miss my grandmother's big assin pecan trees.![]()
