The last child just got back from robbing the neighborhood of candy.

Here's some "also ran" items.


Borderline, but allowable.


Never heard of this one.

C'mon, people. This kinda stuff would get you egged back in my day.

 

[Knobgoblin]

This one I could go either way on . But that's only because it isn't a diet or Zero product.

 

[Knobgoblin]

This guy!!!!

Good lord, buddy. Just turn your lights off and don't make any noise. You know, hide. Like an actual adult.

I went out to the main gate for a while but no kids here. Sadly the kooks have really ruined this time for kids. When I was a kid we would spend weeks making a costume and could not wait for sun to set that night to head out. Damn shame so few get to have that fun now

Some fool of a neighbor put a big bowl of Twix, Tootsie Pops etc. on his front porch and left.
Burp.
Lol, I only took a few and no kids came up to his porch anyway and and

I saw a kid that was a tugboat.

No pics. Only went to 6 houses total, and 2 didnt have lights on. First time for 18 month old. Lets see.

One squishy flashing rubbery yoyo thing with tag saying "not suitable for children under 6"

1 fake tattoo

1 Haribo gummy snack bag

1 Rice Krispies brick treat

1 tiny toy that looks like should be in those 50 cent dispensers

1 Reeses cup

2 Boyer Smoothies Peanut Butter cups

1 regular small Milky Way bar (1/2 the size of regular bar)

1 Milky Way Mini (1/4 the size of the regular bar)



Hm. Most if not all the above are not suitable for a toddler

I haven't had a single trick or treater yet.

The church down the road is having some "trunk or treating" bullbubblegum. Allowing church members to park their cars in the lot, open their trunks and put bowls of candy in them for the kids.

Edit - I got 2 kids show up, thus they got to split the bowl of candy. I turned off my porch light. Goodnight.

 

[Knobgoblin]

Her main haul.

I won't even tax it this year, since I have leftovers.

The trunk and treat thing has been a thing around here for over 5 years.

My wife and children did the trick'r'treat thing in town as they do most years. (My family never did it, so the practice is largely lost on me.) But when they got home with the haul I said "Sheez, you guys hit a candy supply truck or something?"

 

[CamoDeafie]

Those who like candy but not paying full prices; I think tomorrow to Saturday, stores are selling off candy at discounts; if they didnt already switch to Christmas candies

That KitKat bar looks very suspicious. You should send that to me so I can run it through the lab.



* No, not the Lab.

We went to my oldest kid's house in Newberg, there are a lot of young families the same age as my oldest. Before sunset until about 8 pm, we were taking turns answering the door nonstop.

In my neighborhood in Beaverton, there have only been a few young families moved in... so we're still in a Trick or Treat drought.

I really miss the hordes of kids. I used to love being able to pass out candy to excited little faces all dressed up.

I was in Salem having dinner with my kids. They never really got into it, but we saw many more out this year than I can remember.

I saw a kid that was a tugboat.

Was the chunky little brother an anchor?

Next year, bring a trunk full of squirt guns.

Maybe.. he was with a little someone else dressed in something dark and it was dark and at distance.
He was awesome! Lotta kids last night

It is nice having older kids.
My 12 year old went out with his buddy out to West Linn. He scored a bunch of full size stuff.
My 14 year old had a friend of hers over for the night. They went out together and stayed out of trouble.
Both of my kids gave me full sized Reeses PB cups. I ate them.

The old lady and i sat at home watching a terrible horror movie that i paid for. I want my money back.
We ate candy out of the bowl.
Now it is back to my no sugar diet until Turkey day.

Been at this house for 19 years and again we had zero kiddos........I think we have had less than five in all the time we have been here. Most places have a dedicated area of town for the event. The last town I lived in there was a set route and we in the fire department blocked the streets off and let all the kiddos run wild so nobody would get run over. One year we had a drunk make it into the route and three guys about killed him yanking him out of his car...good times.
I live on a dark dead end road in the country....not the best place for trick or treating.
