Poll question: What are you giving trick or treaters this year?

[Richardo]

1. The same thing as every year.

The dark porch light.

[gmoney]

8. +1

They're welcome to take some of the dead leaves from the front lawn.

I suppose I could put out boxes of old cassette tapes that will otherwise be going to Goodwill. You KNOW how kids love 80s and 90s tunes on cassette!

27. x

[charlie and algernon]

2. a rock

[azmouse]

3. Just like Charlie Brown!

:hi:

[jakefrep]

4. Nothing - I won't be home trick-or-treat night.

[yellowdogintexas]

22. same here but I am giving candy to my neighbor to hand out for me

it will be mini Hersey's, mini Reeses and mini Milky ways, most likely

[Kingofalldems]

5. Candy corn

My all time favorite.

[Chan790]

6. Guano.

I think that is incredibly generous...have any idea what a pound of bat crap is worth? $$$$

[mitchum]

7. Grain alcohol

[Eyerish]

9. Condoms & Cigarettes...

Just like when I was a kid...

[Chan790]

11. We used to have "Dormoween" in college...

where the upperclassmen would give out cigarettes, condoms and beer among other inappropriate stuff to the Freshmen who went door-to-door. We also used to give them trash too though, literally the contents of the wastepaper bin.

Costumes too.

That was a great college tradition...nobody else ever did "Dormoween" that I heard of. Go Cards!!

[Throd]

10. Piping hot clam chowder labeled right into their sack.

[Dr. Strange]

12. Chick tract!

[Ikonoklast]

13. Beets.

Kids love 'em.


We used to give them .410 shotgun shells, but that just got kinda costly.

Gotta economize where we can, with things the way they are, and all.

[JPZenger]

14. Candy that I hate

I purposefully buy candy that I hate. Otherwise, I would eat it myself before Halloween.

[mtowngman]

23. I do the exact opposite

and only give out candy I like. There seems to be fewer kids each year and I'd much rather be stuck with a bunch of snickers and reece's than candy corn.

[mtowngman]

24. dupe, sorry

[gratuitous]

15. A spritz from the hose

From my usual perch above the front porch. Kids enjoy it during the summer, and I never want summer to end!

[GoneOffShore]

16. Potatoes - Just supermarket ones - not the good organic local ones.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

17. A lecture on the cold, hard reality of life.

Little buggers need to hear it some time or another.

[mulsh]

18. for kids with paper bags a nice 16 oz glass of water.

One of my grandparents neighbors actually did this to my twin brother and me when we were kids, poured it right into our bags ruining the candy and causing the bags to break.

Fortunately a couple of my great uncles were visiting that night. Unfortunately you don't mess with nephews of former SeaBees and Bataan survivors. The neighbor's house needed extensive clean up the following morning.

[AsahinaKimi]

19. A package of Fruity TUMS...

Thats what I always needed...after eating all that candy.

[Generic Brad]

20. Nothing!

They will never get past the security guard. I pay dearly to keep riff raff like that away from my door.

[femmocrat]

21. Nothing. We don't get any here!

Kind of disappointing. We haven't had any trick or treaters in years, so I finally stopped buying candy.

[Sanity Claws]

25. A smile

I don't get any trick or treaters at my apartment. I'll just smile at them when I see them on the street.

[Oceansaway]

26. i give out mini snickers...i have

45-60 tricksters up here....

[sakabatou]

28. Mixed bag of candy.

[flvegan]

29. A fine sense of risk.

Think "can I make it through the gate, to the door, knock, get candy and run back out the gate before that big pit bull wakes up?"

[barb162]

30. Hershey's chocolate to the little kids.

To the big kids, I just want them to go home.

[LostInAnomie]

31. More like what are they giving me...

... at gunpoint.

[dugaresa]

32. I have a selection so kids can pick, Nerds, Twizzlers, Snickers, Reeses Cups, and Kit Kats

sometimes I throw in lollipops.

The get to pick what they like.

The chocolate left over goes to the freezer where my family picks at it for a few months.

[baldguy]

33. Candy is th' debil's werk.

Hershey bars, Snickers, Paydays, and M&Ms.

[Zavulon]

34. Nothing. I never stay home for it.

Not to sound like a grumpy old man, but I'm not a big fan of little kids to beging with, and there's no way I'm going to put up with 50 or 60 of them ringing my doorbell.

[Capn Sunshine]

35. XTRA LARGE Chocolate bars

the really big guys. Because maybe ten kids total will come here. Between the mega churches who trick or treat out of their car trunks in their own parking lots and rampant paranoia no one trick or treats any more around here.

[rcrush]

36. Rat poison.

I'll even label it RAT POISON. I bet you 1 in 3 kids will still eat it.
