Anyone else have stupid trick-or-treating hours where they live? Ours is from 4-7. It's not dark at all, and a lot of adults aren't home from work yet.

I don't know what the hours are, but here a lot of families do it at the Y and local school gyms / churches.

And yeah, many nights I don't get home until 7 or so, yeah, those hours are silly.

When I was a kid and lived closer to Madison, I remember police officers giving out those light-up necklaces. I ended up getting like 10 of them one year. Then you'd put them in the freezer so they would glow again. Those were the days. :cool:

I've compiled a list of items to give out on Halloween other than candy:

- Tacos
- Dental floss
- Pens & pencils
- One Skittle
- Lawn chairs
- Pillow cases
- Dog collars
- Scissors
- A copy of Sharknado on blu-ray
- Toe nail clippers
- Old pants
- Mowed grass
- Toilet paper
- Frozen meatballs
- BMs

I have the worst luck with Trick or Treating.

One year I'll have one or two kids...but tons of candy, the next, deciding not to buy candy, I'll get slammed.

It's so hard to predict. This year I'm not gonna buy candy (after buying 3 bags last year and only having 1 group of kids (my neighbors kids) show up...
My only year dealing with trick 'r' treaters where I live there was a freak snow storm the day before Halloween so I only got a bag. I needed to buy more after the 1st hour I was home.

Growing up my town's curfew was 8 on Mischief Night and 9 or 10 on Halloween. Where I live now you can be out until 9.

What kid wouldn't love a CD of Johnny Cash's greatest hits?

When I lived closer to Madison, the people across the street from me gave out fruit and snack-size bags of chips every year. Like what child is seriously going to take the fruit?
My child would. If you passed out apples or carrots she would knock on your door twice. Kiwi or broccoli and she would knock three times.

Our local nursing home has a trick or treat where the residents pass out candy from their doorway as the kids walk up and down the hallways. It's kinda nice to see the older people who might never get visitors enjoy the kids. You can always tell who they are because those who have families buy real chocolate and the more expensive stuff and thosde who don't have anybody pass out Now and Laters or DumDum suckers provided by the nursing home. We come home with a full plastic pumpkin each year.

No hours, no curfew. But then again, Long Island isn't Mayberry, now is it?!

There are always some dentists on the news that will "buy back" candy after Halloween for something like a nickel a pound.
