      There are so few kids out trick or treating these days that it’s really not that expensive to do this now, too. I will never get tired of hearing excited kids say “THIS HOUSE HAS BIG BARS!!”

        I received more trick treaters this year then ever before, and still have a ton of it left. Bet next year I will get more since I will now be the house with the big bars.

    I like raisins. When did people decide raisins were bad. Are you mad for some raisin?

    I used to get small raisin box as a kid, they were actually good. Haven’t seen them for a long time. And molasses toffee fun for sticking your mouth shut.

    You know those awful peanut butter candies that came in either black or orange wrappers? My parents bought a giant bag of them in bulk and gave them out every Halloween. From the same bag. For like five years.

    This disgusting crap.

    Now here is a Halloween pro tip: Go to a site like Oriental Trading Co. and get a bunch of cheap toys and plastic rings and temporary tattoos and such and give those out instead of candy. Even the teenagers love it. Kids are always excited because they get candy from everyone else, so we give them something cool and different. We have heard, “yes! It’s the toy house!” more than once.
