Halloween Candy

[Mandelon]

I had to replace the bags my wife bought twice already because I ate them all. Frikkin Snickers bars are like heroin!

We usually only have a few kids anyway.

Same boat, had to go to the store and restock. Told her she needs to buy the crappy stuff.

I still have to buy candy. I need 4/5 big bags, most likely over a hundred bucks.

But will that stop you?

Simi Costco still had a shit load of bags 2 hrs ago

 

[King295]

Wife loaded up on full size bars from Costco last week. We don't eat candy so no temptation loss. My neighborhood is relatively quiet compared to my area, the tract over from mine gets bombarded which I'm cool with. My neighbor's kids know where the real candy bars are at.

Well…

 

[RiverDiva]

We participate in our Main Street fright night. It’s never enough candy. But the office will be open with adult treats in our endless cooler! Stop in and say hi and check out our new designs!

I was in CVS drug store earlier today. Holy Moly the big bags of assorted candies were $39.99.

2 different big bags at Costco, one was 15.00 (airhead, dots, liquorice....) and the other bag was 20.00 (M&M's, snickers, milkyway....) and you know Costco bags are good size.

Especially if they are refrigerated or frozen.

Frozen Reece’s are the bomb!

We live in a gated area, with only 11 homes. We’ve been here for 4 years, and the gate has never been open, so we get only the neighbors and a few of their friends. This year, it’s been decided to leave the gate open, so I have no idea how many kids we’ll see.
Did I buy enough?

 

[beerrun]

We do 3 boxes of full size from Costco

 

[Joker]

We turn our lights off.

 

[4Waters]

We turn our lights off.

Same here

 

[Boatymcboatface]

We turn our lights off.

That’s the way to do it!!

Enjoy it when you’re a kid but give them the finger when you’re an adult!

 

[endobear]

I haven't had a trick or treater at a house I've lived in for almost 38 years. I was 12 the last time I lived somewhere convenient to have trick or treaters.

 

[JB in so cal]

Our area has been through a flush of older people and replaced with families with kids. But there are gonna be a few of the 5-6' tall "kids" but we usually turn off the lights at 8 or so...

 

[Albert]

Idk what I was thinking I bought two bags and they have 250 pieces in each one Me on Nov

 

[bilz]

They damn near bus them into our area. Carloads park at Michigan park, two blocks from me. Many from way out of the area. Kind of bullshit, bet when we run out, lights go out.

 

[Dan Lorenze]

I would if it weren't for the little ones.. That's what it's all about.

 

[Luvnlife]

Where we live, we have no one.

 

[4Waters]

We actually go to my in-law neighborhood to trick or treat so no one is at our house

We get car loads from Santa Ana bussed here to Huntington expecting big bars. I almost feel like we live in a border town one day out of the year.

Same with my neighborhood. It's crazy... Maybe I'll just get 2 or 3 bags and when they're gone I'll turn out the lights and put a trash can in front of the front door. lol

Same here, those snickers and three musketeers do me in every year.

 

[Backlash]

We already have about 12 big bags and I know this isn't going to be enough. We had over 3,000 kids last year and ran out a few hours in. I'm going to pick up a few more first thing in the morning.

Holy crap! Cheaper to go away for the weekend!

 

[BingerFang]

Didn’t get one kid last year or the year before. The only candy I’ll be buying this year is for me

 

[Backlash]

Tell me about it!! We are fortunate enough to live in a nice area where a lot of classic films have been filmed. One of them being the original Halloween. It's hard not to participate in this holiday!!

IYKYK.

 

[Willie B]

… I was planning on leaving my porch light off because Halloween is a bit hard on the old boy here… Maybe I will go buy a bunch of candy.???.., I don’t know???…

 

[shintoooo]

 

[DarkHorseRacing]

I love living in Arrowhead. If the bears don’t get the trick or treaters, the coyotes or mountain lions will. Never seen them up here.

Lol if I buy the mix with milk duds I’d way 260lbs again in no time. That’s why we buy the bag with skittles and jolly ranchers! But the kids know they better come back with a couple milk duds and whoppers.

 

[shintoooo]

We always get candy to hand out and my daughter always carves pumpkins too but we live up the hill and kids are too lazy to walk up the hill these days. We just resorted to getting a small bag knowing we’ll get two or maybe three kids at the most.

I still sit outside with my wife with the music blasting in the garage and drink some beers. I don’t care who shows up lol.

 

[Outdrive1]

I’m addicted to chocolate, lol I buy a bunch of candy but we get zero kids in the keys. That’s fine because I’ll be eating candy for a month.

 

[Backlash]

My wife and I just took a short walk to grab some hot chocolate and fresh pastries. It's pretty incredible the lengths people go to!

Tell me about it.

The shit I do for community outreach.

Come on down and get a sticker and a coloring book to go with the diabetes.

 

[DLC]

We are ready!

bring on Those little free loaders….

 

[The Prisoner]

I absolutely hate Snickers and Milky Ways. This is my go to. Caramel =Ptooie!

 

[FreeBird236]

Kids in Havasu don't do the streets, they mostly go downtown. We may go there as well.

If not downtown, the neighborhood off Jacob Row usually goes all out.

 

[17 10 Flat]

No candy this year. Several boxes of individual bags of salty chippy things.

 

[Hardly Satisfied]

We sit out in the street with our neighbors. We have the fire pit going drinking beers and we will be watching the World Series while handing out candy

 

[crzy2bealive]

I bought one bag. Will leave it in a bowl. Who knows if one kid takes the whole thing.

Having young kids I don’t want to miss out on them going out trick or treating.

 

[outboard_256]

I am doing good this year, only had to re-stock candy once so far. And we still have enough to give away tonight.

Funny how things have changed. My parents never went out with me or my friends. We put a little something on and used pillow cases. Usually filled them twice. Lived in a very dense neighbor hood. Think 40-50 foot lots. Hated getting apples...

Our first stop couple neighbor bars. Cash only...thank you.

 

[Backlash]

Well, as much as there is, it will be gone before 9pm tonight.

^^ That's 2100 pieces of candy, plus two boxes of fruit snacks, plus two boxes of Rice Krispie Treats, plus 24 pounds of mixed Costco assortment. This is on a 3'x5' table!
