    Nope. It's in the back of my car, I'm looking for the right bridge to throw it off.

    How are your kids not begging for their candy? That was like the only time of year my Mom would let me have candy, and all day I would obsess and think about my candy. It never lasted more than a week. I'd even eat the nasty gum ball candy.

    Hmmmm no wonder...

    One fun size peanut m&m bag... 8 peanut m&m's... not bad at all!

    Really? Fun size = 8 m&ms? That is so few I would cry. That's just wrong.

    Parent tax = Brilliance.

    Mine are stealing from me because I buy a better class of candy than the trick-or-treat mess. The bargaining will commence this evening. One kit kat for one completed laundry load. You want a full sized candy bar? Go pick up the dog crap.

    you're a genius. I keep saying the only reason I want a kid is so I have someone to clean the house for me. I think I should probably adopt one already equipped for cleaning capabilities though, plus that way I can also bargain and bribe.

    Didn't have to raid it... my daughter freely offered to share her candy. She's 5. She doesn't know any better. :devil:

    It's called "mom tax" and yes, I made myself sick on the tax I collected!

    I have a 3 year old, I gave him 5 and he was beyond thrilled.

    There are some places that will take your leftover candy and send it to the troops who are deployed oversees.
    The gym in our building at work is doing that.

    If I can find somewhere to drop it off like that I will.

    I "tax" my kids. I get every Almond Joy.

    I get less and less every year - I think they are cheating and choosing other candies or eating them before they get home. :D

    I didn't eat any of it...they hid it from me.

    This post just reminded me that I should go look in the office break room for candy castoffs.:laugh:

    I have an allergic kid so I got her ENTIRE SASH. That's right, you heard me. BOW BEFORE THE MASTER, PUNY HUMANS.

    I bought enough different kinds of peanut free safe candy, pre-Halloween that I could swap the pumpkins when she wasn't looking. (She's 3).

    And NOW ALL THE REESES ARE BELONG TO ME!!!

    Nope, took a vow with my group not to, and I didn't. She did give me everything with peanuts in it though. It's sitting on my husbands dresser right now. She's not allergic and loves peanut butter, but for some reason when it's in candy.... she avoids it at all costs, lol.

    Last night I ate Reese's Peanut Butter Pumpkins like a meth addict who hadn't had a fix for a week would snort a bag (I'm just guessing on that, but I think that's probably pretty bad)! Or, I was like a brainless zombie devouring brains. Ugh!
