Spin off - how much candy do you give out?

Anyone else give out dog treats to people who bring their dogs?

Believe it or not, when I was a little kid and my brothers took me out trick or treating, we came home with dog biscuits that someone was giving out in bags to the kids in place of candy. My parents were furious, and it's a good thing we couldn't identity which house they came from. Guess that's not as bad as some of the other horror stories that you would hear of - like needles or razor blades in apples, etc. Makes you wonder what makes some people tick!

When my kids were little and would go out, they were only allowed to keep things like candy bars or packs of gum - no loose candy or cookies and the like. It's a shame that's the way it has to be because of a few sickos!

None == Never to do on Saturday Night due to more Hoodlums out then.. Pluss I Do Not Do Halloween anymore due to my Babies.. They just can not handle the doorbell & all of the noisess.. We will sit quite thru the night hopefully.. Even with the front door locked & all the lights out = there will still be some idiots slam on the door knocking & ringing the door bell..

When we bought our house in 94 I gave out candy...and I think the following 2 years as well. We live at just about the top of a fairly steep hill. First year we got a good number of kids, the second year it dropped back a bit and the third year I froze my butt off and got about...10 kids, if that, so I gave up.
