Halloween Candy...

Yes, we buy it early-sometimes we don't even do Halloween because we are gone!

You would think that now my sons are grown, I wouldn't buy it!!I haven't bought any more yet-trying to be good about my cholesterol diet-at lease in some areas :lol: Karen

Good girl Karen! :D

Bossy, it seems that I am following you around today.
I always buy bags of candy, and the thing is I live in an apartment , and we do not get any trick or treaters!!!! guess who the candy is for??

We stopped buying halloween candy. My son steals it and will eat the whole bag in one morning. Talk about bouncing off the walls. Where we live we are kind of out in the country and we do not get trick or treaters. The local churches have set up park and treat. You can take your kids up to the church and their members have candy set up in a line on their tailgates. You just walk them through the line trick or treating. This is much safer. One of the churches has a festival where there are all kind of games and such.

With 4 kids I will never go hungry again when Halloween comes around. I usualy end up throwing about 2 large paper sacks full of candy away.

LOL at FYI!!! I remember those days! Din't have but 2 kids, but I picked out all the ones I liked first-in the guise that I was checking out the candy-worked when they were young-not so much as they got older..karen

I have solved the leftover candy dilema at our house--Don't buy the holiday wrappers (browns, golds, etc). That way, you can use it in their stockings at Christmas! If they didn't eat it for Halloween, they are sure not going to for Christmas. But man, if you don't put it in there, just like the oranges and pecans, they are MAD :evil:

I love Halloween! I don't let my kids dress up as something evil. I hold that one myself. I'm usualy the Grim reaper because it's one big costume that covers my face.

I miss watching my children dress up...and then bring home all the goodies!! LOL...I haven't bought much candy the last couple of years...and not till the last minute.

I just bought 3 bags to take to the office for the "kids" there (all men - about 10 of them). It will be gone by tomorrow night or Tuesday morning.

We live in a neighborhood where there is only one way in and out. People from all over town bring their kids here to trick or treat. There are hundreds of kids roaming around. They even use the pool parking lot for a park and treat. It amazing. I went trough over 1000 candy pieces last year. And my sone came homewith two pillow cases full. UGH!!!! I tried to save them to give out this year but got vetoed.
