We did it and it's not much more expensive. Sam's club had Halloween themed Hershey's, KitKat, and Reese's boxes for 40 cents a bar
GreaseMonkeyOfLove
I did that last year.....it snowed and only 3 kids showed up. $200 worth of chocolate left over...
Dave830108
Same, kids had enough bullshit thrown at them this year. Might as well give what boost you can.
TummyTroubles
We aint get to hand out candy in these parts
nightfallfox980
Send your address we're on the way..
manlikemitch
But are you handing out rotisserie chickens aswell?
Ended up giving out just over 100 full size bars. Usually we have 150-200 trick or treaters. Glad to see the kids out having fun.

Clever. It looks like a selfless deed but we all know you just want to dodge the reaper for one more year. Keep it up Margaret.

Doing gods work @op
GrandHofTarkin
We did too, but no children came. My husband was pretty happy he gets all the chocolate for himself now, lol.
youbetchamom
I have that same bowl!
ladyXechoXkenobiXbarnes
We did gift bags and set them up around the tombstones we had set up so we can keep our distance.
dart223
I did the glow sticks and glow in the dark kit kat wrappers just for the nieghbor kids and it was like a spooky easter out there
cbmech7
I did the same and bought an RC dump truck to deliver the candy to the kids so they don't have to come up to my door. Kids loved it.
/a/Tb8e31c
bendaresall
That RC truck looks sooo cool!
gitguuud
Filled up baggies with like 10+ pieces of candy apiece. Still smaller pieces, but 100-ish kids got them
AbelardSnazz
Hope you're not an asymptomatic carrier, otherwise you just infected 100 families. This is not the year for trick or treating
greekolives
If my kid was trick-or-treating, I'd make sure that when they got home it was hand sanitizer time and the wrappers get disinfected b4 eating
shawnemack
I had no trick or treaters :(
Sounds like you live in a sensible neighbourhood where people care about their kids
I hear you. We put a candy station down at the end of the driveway so we wouldn’t have to come in contact with the kids and everyone is safe
RaptorClawBR
Sadly enough full size has shrunk over the years.
NoUseYourName9000

I totally need a 3 Musketeers.
MistyMoonGamer
I've got plenty ur welcome too
lexis2272101
for my 7 year old we decorated every door in the house and had her trickortreat I was really scooby-doo esk.
Oh, that's clever
MangaSpawn
Full size bar crew here. Never got one as a kid so now I pass them out.
burpwind
Wonder how many are passing on the virus.
howmuchwoodcouldawoodchuckchuck22
We passed out candy outside. Wore masks the entire time. Parents respectfully kept their distance. It really wasn’t bad... for me anyways.
What did you wear when putting out the candy? did you wear gloves and a mask? Did you touch your face or ass with the gloves on?
I did wear gloves and a mask. And no I did not touch my face nor my ass. Any other questions?
Damnenginelight
THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN SAYING! This is the WORSE activity to do during the Pandemic!
ShifuYaku
We got full size candy bars, too, but no one showed up :( I'm pretty sad about it, that's the third year in a row for us with no treaters
Lezio
akahata
Since I first saw this cartoon I‘m giving out full size snickers on Halloween.

You so totally rock!

And you don’t!
ThePunnyGuy
Hey, @Lassannn isn't all that bad. But still, fuck you, Lassannn.
Trick or treating this year is just about the dumbest thing you could do. Hey. let's spread this virus round the whole neighbourhood!
Children barely get it or pass it on, it's adults who need to be careful. Use halloween masks + hand sanitizer, it's fine
Jeezus, don't believe Trump's lies, anyone can transmit and children can die too

squatlow17
We do this and mini playdoughs, just because i love watching the kids get excited.
belindashort
Yes I do little party favor toys. Some kids can't have candy
GilFaizonofcourse
Our friends kids got little playdoughs. We were amazed, they cracked them open immediately upon arrival home
ImSorryFriend
That's fuckin' cool.
vizza
You're my hero. I would have lost my mind as a kid if I had gotten one on Halloween
SclopioPeepio
Mini play dough is a good idea. Good on ya
BatSausages
Came to say same my kids would be so excited
GoodEarthBetweenMyToes
I hate having leftover chocolate bars around the house. Definitely play dough next year. (With razor blades, cuz I’m old school).
BetYouWontBanMeAgain
Just don't forget to put the heroin in there too
Deadmedic
Not one person trick or treated on my street. Which really, I approve of. Shouldnt go door to door virus hunting.
cc93921045
No kids on my street neither
Most people in my neighborhood sat outside in their driveway
Dontdeletemyaccount
A few showed up, i didnt even open the door.
We did a chute this year, knowing we’d still get only 1/5th of our regular turnout. Kids need it. So do I.
Counterfit
People either hid candy in their yard, did a PVC tube, or put bags on a table in my neighborhood
dragonsluvtacos
We had a Halloween candy hunt in the house. No door-to-door for us this year.
mthornton91
I think that was a popular idea, doing it like an Easter egg hunt instead of visiting the whole neighborhood.
haluuf
We went, but only to ppl that had chutes or pulley baskets or long perches. One guy was lowering candy down in a CORONA beer bucket. lmao
MatrimBloodyCauthon
I went driving to check out halloween houses with my mom tonight, stopped at one when I saw a chute, put my hand in to check for candy, 1/2
woman opened door, "You want some candy?" put it down chute so I can say I technically trick or treated tonight
THESEVENSGUY
I think a lot of people will do this. Cus hey it’s the little things that count.
baltec1
Nobody should be doing this.
MisterNotFunny
The little things, but not the fun-sized things
Captaintippie
I didnt give out full size bars but I did have large gloves stuffed with all types if candy. It seemed well received.
AllHailTechnoViking
Yeah. Giving the little things diabetes.
beartato
I do this every year. I get liek 1-5 kids a year. This year I got 0. Ah well, Im still holding onto the candy for the upcoming year.
gamblingpoet
I put a table out front. And put plastic bags full of candy in each (wrapped candy). Had 50 bags. Have 25 left. Fucking 2020 sucks.
Hemispheres
We hand out airplane bottle of liquor to the adults every year. They seem to appreciate it.
roysgto
Hell yeah ! Where you live me and the boys are stopping by next year!
dyxj
I know we are.
CoBr2
I'm glad I didn't buy them... Barely had 10 kids tonight. Threw big handfuls of fun sized candy and I still have way too many leftover.
DukeDarkwood
I do fun-size, BUT I give them out by twos. We went through a lot of candy before my move; usually got 50-60 trick-or-treaters. Since moving
last year, that's changed... where I live now, we got only six last year (and, out of respect for the plague, I didn't even try this year).
fawners
My first year giving them out, too. Only 6 kids. They were ecstatic!
Anatomypark3
I tried.....didn't get one trick or treater :(
rebelplayerone
Me neither
TavisMcNamara
I dunno, big things seem pretty important too.
NapkinBob
I think you mean the full-sized things?
KickFromABuffalowwwwwwwwwwwwww
We do it. Love it when you hear kids shout, "THEY HAVE FULL SIZE BARS" and the goofy little bastards just pour in. Easy pickings.
Out with my nephews right now and they are doing that. It’s awesome
SodiumOverload
“Easy pickings” makes it sound like you’re up to something!

quickineedausername
Easy solution, I'm happy to eat these leftovers. Or, you could donate it to shelters if you want to spread kindness.
lordofarda
Good. There's a pandemic going on. Stay home.
FuzzyX
I only had 2 visitors this year where in past years I had plenty more.
TurboPuns21
I donated my leftover full size bars to an organization that works with my local PD to throw a trick or treat out of car trunks for kids.
You might be able to find a similar charitable trick or treat being thrown in your neck of the woods
NoOneLikesYourSelfies
Same.
ChowYunChubby
More candy for you
DENNISystem
We went all out and had two live monsters for scares, and 4 Costco bags of candy... barely anyone ?
Ozimbah
We only had a couple, let them take as many as they wanted. The important thing is that you had them ready for them if they showed up!
Pikkupanda
We had six kids. Husband was so sad.
HandyHarry
I made up goodie bags with candy, fruit snacks and a juice box. Had 7 kids!
AsidRayne1245
Bummer you get to eat allll of the candy now!
We also didn't get any trick or treaters... And there are a lot of kids in this neighborhood.
outtaleftfield
Same but I had one kiddo... one. So sad
lydiacrazypuglady
I noticed that no one was ringing the doorbell or knocking, so I went and sat outside to pass out candy.
Genjuin
I did too, got 96 total bars and only seven kids showed. ☹ at least they're home safe
EmergencyChocolate
I’m not a kid, but I can assist in eating the candy!
LeAction
Same here. Last kid who came through got 34 full size bars. I'm keeping the rest.
WilliamWeird
That's the win/win, at least. All bought candy never goes uneaten
This is true, dont know if I need all that sugar though, haha
Ynigmatyk
You have until Easter
MattTheImperialRadarTechnician
I went full sized. Had almost no one. Every kid got TWO full sized. Except the little girl dressed as a stegosaurus. She got 4.
Yay stegosaurus!
I KNOW RIGHT!
That's how it's done. This is the way.
Thanks!
Heyletsbbq
We made 30 goodie bags with each a small bottle of water and a full sized candy bar. Only 7 kids.
BobbyMillsfromAChorusLine
I think we had maybe 15-30 kids. We just left a big bowl out. About 3/4 was gone when we brought it back in.
PastureofMuppets
If in the US, any homeless near that might enjoy a goodie bag?
We have a wonderful food pantry that receives a surplus of supplies and goods for the needy.
Kunitsu
we stopped at 4 little houses that had nice people out front wearing masks. my poor little girl was so upset she couldnt trick or treat but
was trying so hard not to cry over it. We picked a spot that had barely any people and only houses that were wearing masks and she got to
get atleast a tiny slice of a normal halloween on our way home from my grandmothers. she told each person thank you for wearing a mask so
she could trick or treat. one lady thought she was so sweet she gave her a handful of full size bars since not too many kids were out. it
made her entire night 100x better =)
