I only got about five groups last year, maybe 15 kids total.

I noticed a couple of days ago that the Halloween candy was out at Walmart, but I didn't check prices. If this is accurate, then, yeah, porch light off this year. It's not even worth putting out a pumpkin. Also, I'd end up eating the leftover candy, so that's not good either.

If homemade cookies weren't shunned, then I'd do that, but I can't imagine parents letting their kids eat them. The fearmongers have won.

Oh, so that’s what it looks like inside a murican supermarket. That’s a metric shit ton of plastics from an UE pov.

I’ve never seen bags like that, some seems dumb with the numbers, 195 or 310 but why not plain and round 200?

should be plenty of clearance Nov 1st at least

To clarify; danish candy prices are fucking ridonkoulus.

We stopped giving out candy and instead do chips, juice, gummies, cracker packs, etc. The cost is roughly the same, he kids send to love it, and we don't want to be stuck with a bunch of leftover candy.

But what about Helloween? Heavy Metal Hamsters enter chat!

All tricks no treats this year kiddos.

Trick or Candy mortgage!

We don't have enough kids in my neighborhood to justify buying candy

People who have afforded to buy their neighbors candy in the past have always been awesome people.

I am not one of those people.

Learn how to bake the awesomest shortbread you can, & wrap some of that edible-gold up in wax-paper for each kid.

Flour, cornstarch, oats, butter, salt, do not add-up to the extortion-prices charged by the flavored-sugar-in-plastic-wrappers companies.
