What are you handing out for Halloween?

we had a few when i grew up the dentist and a few other people giving out toothbrushes and raisins/ penuts, always just avoided going to them,(unless i neneed a new toothbrush lol ;P ) we ALways remembered the houses that give out full size chocolate bars and litte goody bags of stickers and treats

id love some oatmeal tho lol

I have a gigantic bowl full of all kinds of chocolate candy. No kid wants your raisins or your apples. LOL

One of my friends had her doorbell rung at 4pm by a bunch of 14yr olds in their school uniform! They were told in no uncertain terms to come back when they'd made an effort...

I'm giving out candy (nerds, starburst, reeses's peices and cups, hershey's, and kit-kats) and play-doh. I have to buy more candy on my way home today though because I used about half of it putting treat bags together for the moms. (Shameless self-promotion at my house tonight. I sell Avon so the moms are getting treat bags with flyers, samples, and a couple of peices of candy.)

Hopefully people will have some canned goods. My oldest is going trick or treating with a school group to get non-perishable foods for the local food bank.

^^^^This is awesome. If someone came to my door and told me this I'd fill a bag of stuff for them. I hope they do well!!

I am not giving anything, why would I buy sweets for strangers? We don't DO halloween here anyway and so doubt if anyone will knock at our door unless its some scabby teenagers looking for free stuff....

Because its for little kids mostly and its the thought that counts?

people don't 'celebrate' halloween in England in the same way, its not done here, nobody has knocked on my door in the whole time I lived here and the local police discourage it, as it is looked upon as anti social, it is not something that I grew up even aware of, Bonfire night is WAY more important, a big deal.

I didn't know you were from England.

Cans of whoopazz. My kids aren't allowed candy and their bedtime is 7 pm, so don't ring our doorbell. Beat it, freeloaders! :-)

Although, maybe next year I will hand out photocopies of the Food Pyramid and toothbrushes...

I think I know the responses you'll be getting in this thread. :indifferent:

From people who don't get sarcasm, or from people who don't like kids with rules? I could always hand out Red Bull, and let the parents decide if the kids should drink it...

Intelligent readers will realize that I am saying that I don't let my kids trick-or-treat, negating the need for healthy handouts.

Mini haribo packets, lots of the local parents bring their kids round so i like to get some sweets in for them. They look so cute dressed up. We dont celebrate it much in England but a small 16g pack kf jelly sweets wont kill them, so i think why not. I would love to experience halloween USA style. I bet its amazing

Oatrmeal? Woah.

I hope you are ready to pick up opened oatmeal packages in your yard lol!
