How Much Do You Spend On Halloween Treats To Hand Out?

@4meAndyou all the kids that can have their parents take them to the rich side of town where they’ll get plenty of chocolate. I don’t know about now but heard about 30 years ago those people would hand out full-size candy bars.

@4meAndyou The town I lived in prior to where I am now was concerned about kids wandering in the dark. They made a rule that there was to be no Trick or Treating door to door, but we could all buy candy and bring it to the town hall. The staff would divide it up and put it in bags that the parents could come and pick up to bring home during business hours.

That didn't go over very well and I don't know anyone who brought candy to be handed out. After that there was just no more discussion and no kids coming by either.

@cherokeepatti Well, I didn't do that...but I used to scoop up a handful of the smaller candy and throw it in every child's bag. Then we had those kids that used to take the candy and then go change their costumes and come back for more...🤣🤣🤣

@joe438 That's just sad. Now my church had a good idea a while back. We would drive to the church parking lot, and open up the trunks of our cars, and decorate them with lights and spooky decorations, and hand out candy safely to all the little church kids.

@4meAndyou It was sad, and we didn't reelect some of the losers who came up with the idea. The trunk thing is becoming more popular. A friend's workplace does that. It seems to work well.
