Very nice Sharon.  I usually buy a few bags of candy for us er I mean the kids.  LOL  We have a long driveway in the country so since our friends kids grew up we have no activity.  We keep the lights off too.  I may have to run in and get us some candy just in case.

Its so hard to Judge the Candy purchase. Some years we have purchased a lot and had almost no kids. Other years it seems like we have tons of kids and have to ration the candy supply. With the colder temps and recent snow here, My guess is traffic is down. I will I had lived where we do now when I was a kid. Oh the haul I could have made. I would have run from door to door. Went home and changed costumes and ran back to all the best houses. I use to 1/2 way fill a pillow case. Here where I live now I would have needed several of them  :cheesy:

I see less and less kids every year. I suppose once they get to a certain age now they want to stay home and be on a screen. We used to go every year and had to be told we might be getting to old for it. We usually have left over candy every year.

we ended up with to much candy leftover...........and i shouldnt be eating the stuff anyway!!!!!!!! :confused:

Living out here in the hinterlands, we don't see a lot of trick or treaters but there are usually a couple neighbors' kids who stop by. Just had one group leave. Cute kids. Their dad was here at Halloween in '91 before the rain changed over to snow. Hope the other group doesn't pull the stunt where they show up after 9 like they've done in the past. Us old farts need our beauty sleep! 😴

here at this house we've been the old fuddy dud grinches for Halloween for a while.  Why doesn't that surprise me  :rotflmao:  :confused:  :bonk: We usually get quite a few, we all been down that road, as kids. We like mingling and poking fun at the kids,  always a bowl of treats for the pooches that come by also.

Got that done. Last bunch showed up shortly after 8. Lots of leftover candy. Just what we need... :rolleyes:

When my Dad was a kid they used to take a couple pickups with a rope tied between them and tip over peoples corn shocks. Sure glad I'm not like that... :coffee:

I committed THE rookie mistake last night.  I didn't give away the yucky-cheap stuff first, and now I'm stuck with it.   :pouty:
