bought 20 bags of candy, sat  at home while my wife and kids went scourging for  more candy. Anyways I had 8 kids show up tonight . The first few i gave them  maybe 1 of each that  I had. The kids came in like 20 min increments, the last couple of groups got whole bags of candy ,and some 2 bags

Bought three of the 2 lb. (nestle) variety packs and we went through two of them. That's even with taking our daughter out for 2 hours. We had a ton of little kids from 4PM-6PM, then there were alot of the older kids from 8PM-9PM. It was a good showing for a weekday.<br />

So much left over.&nbsp; Now is it wasted candy or an oppritunity to get wasted and chow down on some good treats.

<p>I'm not sure where you people live but in Yonkers the kids still wansta get paid.&nbsp; I went thru 14 bags of candy before 8:00 and wound up adding about $40 in quarters before the ringing stopped.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>We had one family come to our door. My neighborhood used to be full of kids, but not so much anymore. More candy for me!</p><p>On a side note... I was so pissed while delivering pizzas tonight. The better the neighborhood, the more the families walked in the middle of the street. At one point, it took me about 3 minutes to travel half a block. This wasn't just kids. Their parents were walking in the middle of the street, too.</p>

Not one fucking trick or treater, but that might have something to do with the gun fire in the neighborhood.

I never ever see trick or treaters, but while at break from work in Charlestown their was a big block party with a band and shit surrounding the Bunker Hill Monument, lots of kids. Nice to see something like that these days.<br />

<p>We started out with about 20 pounds of assorted candy.&nbsp; </p><p>By 7:30 there was one handful left so we turned out the lights and went to the bar.</p>

20 bags?&nbsp; You were begging to be disapointed, or were you scared of getting egged?&nbsp; I went out in DC last night, so I didn't see how many kids were in my neighborhood, but I did see a lot of people setting up final decorations when I was on my way out.<br />

<p>we have half a cauldron leftover... as long as you have some willpower&nbsp;and don't grab handfuls at a time it's nice having around when you get that itchy sweet tooth and you just need just a bitesize piece to quell the craving</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&quot;quell?&quot;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; very impressive Funkman...</p>

I didnt waste a dime.&nbsp; I walked with my nephews and just &quot;borrowed&quot; from their bags and went home with a bunch of stuff&nbsp;that I liked.
