@781Florist Almond Joy?  I'll be at your door with bells on for those.  Yum.

There are more and more trunk-or-treat events. Some kids might only go to that. Some may do multiple. Last Saturday at an outdoor mall I saw each store had a table outside with candy and kids in costumes were trick-or-tresting there.

There are a lot of kids in my area so there are plenty of trick-or-treaters coming to the door.

In regards to Trick or Treat - our son and DIL live in a moderately sized neighborhood.  I did not realize the extent of this until last year, but, families from all over the place drive there so they can trick or treat on their streets.  I walked with them last year and the streets were PACKED with families, all getting their candy. There were way more people there than live on those streets.  My husband was passing out candy so my son could be with his family.  He ran out, only because of the amount of people.  My DIL did not feel like she should have to treat what felt like the entire city.

When we left, we drove down the road that leads into their neighborhool and it was lined with parked cars, one after the other, off to the side of the road, so they could get candy.

I don't know how I feel about that.  Part, or really Most, of me feels like they should stay in their own neighborhood or do their own thing.

What do you all think?

We have people drive to our neighborhood to trick-or-treat. I don't mind.

Same here @Sakuya , I don't mind either. They could be doing other nefarious acivities.

I have mine.  Milky Ways and Rice Kripy treats.  The last three years under 30 kids.  I make treat bags for the closest neighbors kids.  I just think parents prefer some of these trunk or treat events instead of Halloween night.  Maybe more this year with Halloween being a Friday.  We shall see.  

The grocery store shelves were full yesterday.

I'm going to buy my candy tomorrow.  I don't expect them to reduce the prices but I know Walgrens definitely starts pricing it down the day after Halloween.  I had a lot of kids last year so I intend to buy more candy.  Happy pre-Halloween!
