For me Jolly Ranchers. Lol, I don't want to get "stuck" with a bunch of Snickers lying all over the house.
Plus if it's a kid that I don't like from the school that I yard duty at and they show up at my house...............................I can just give them 1.

    I'm hoping at least one person will respond to this thread with "Toothbrushes" or some other lame treat that will undoubtedly lead to them getting TP'd.

    Raisins!

    I always hand out pencils and candy. Last night it was pencils, tattoos, caramel apple milky way, take 5, kit Kat and twix. Probably 40% of the kids reach for the pencils first. It surprises me every year.

    Kids don't come to my house. I may go to my Grandmama's and hand out candy as tradition begs... We usually give out stuff like lollipops, pixie sticks, and bubble gum.

    And anyone who looks to be older than 16 who shows up with no costume or eye contact gets a job application.

    Everyone who comes to my door will receive a copy of this pamphlet and a sterilized apple.

    I'm working, so Im not responsible for candy or treats this year. I made sure to tell my dad not to buy bags with 3 musketeers. Nobody likes them, as proof from the previous years of leftover treats.

    I don't have any funny repertoire, but I'm handing out m&m's, snickers, m&m caramels, reese's, skittles, nerds, milky way, etc. All the good stuff. Only problem is it's supposed to be cold and rainy. I bought extra bags this year too....some kids may be getting a big haul if there aren't as many tot-ers as usual.

    I don't want the candy in my house, so I hand out glow necklaces. The kids get enough candy on my street anyway.

    If everyone thought like that, then your street would be pretty bright.

    Nothing.

    Trick or treat night was last night in our town. Kids don't come to our part of town but stay more toward the center where there are more houses and businesses close together giving out things.

    I got peanut butter cups for our household.

    Reeses PB cups, Almond Joy, Hersheys, Kit-Kats, Snickers, Butterfingers, Baby Ruths.

    My rule is I don't eat any candy on Halloween. But I set aside ONE of each kind of candy and get to eat them the day after. :p That way I don't overdo it. If there's any other candy left DH gets it. But there probably won't be much leftover since DH will be eating some this evening and we get lots of trick or treaters. Hopefully we don't run out of candy and I have to give out some of my set-aside stash. If I must I will, but not to any teenagers who come by not wearing a costume!

    They don't think like that. That is why kids leave our street with multiple grocery bags full of candy in their hands. They don't miss not getting any candy from me.

    Whatever the mister bought. I'm purposefully staying away, but I know it'll be good. Last year full size candy bars were involved. I also saw a bucket of glow-in-the-dark vampire teeth in the entryway this morning.

    I'll be out with my boys trick or treating, so no handing out candy. Our neighborhood isn't really conducive to trick or treating anyways...before we had kids we would maybe get like 3 trick or treaters and that was it.

    We go to a whole different neighborhood with our kids to trick or treat...there are no side walks in our neighborhood nor are there street lights, so it's very dark and some people drive through our neighborhood like it's the freeway.

    I use a magic trick and make it look like I'm giving them full size candy bars but really they get raisins.

    I'm not sure which is more troubling: 'almost' or 'completely'
