Nope. Already tired of crotch goblins stealing the entire bowl, but definitely not at these prices.

Halloween candy should be a tax write off. I mean we're giving it away!

The math doesn't look too bad on those. 8-15 cents per piece?

I turn off every damn light in the house and outside and those damn little sex trophies still come up and ring the doorbell hoping for a sugar fix.

I bought these Mary Jane candies when I was in college living in a house and broke. At least a dozen moms apologized when their kids refused to take any.

I have a carton of Barclays I purchased 20+ years ago. I'll just leave a few packs out on a stool and shut off the lights.

Cafe Moms would say to buy all the Halloween candy on Nov 1st and use it for next year's Halloween.

We're turning off the light this year for the first time since our oldest was a toddler.

He's 36 now.

Costco is currently selling a Hershey Variety Box of 30 full size bars for $25.19. I'm looking forward to being that house this year.

Kids can have all the candy that they want at my house this year….assuming that they can make it safely through my driveway gate and past my three dogs.

People from south of the border will just come up and take a large portion of your candy bowl, if not all of it. Zero shame, zero etiquette.

I swear, this "forced diversity" experience is just a constant grind. Fatiguing.

Happened to me a few years ago. Had a bowl full of candy on the porch when it was time to put the kids to bed. 5 minutes later I hear a commotion and think cats are fighting on my porch or something. Look at the door camera and a family, no costumes, came up to the door and decimated the bowl. The worst part was the dad that was hanging back on the driveway ran up and started grabbing handfuls of candy when he finally noticed.

Often a short fat mexican lady in a hoodie, with her kids watching...or she's watching and letting her kids raid the entire thing. From my experience, and from compilations I have seen online.

Nice to live in the country. No one comes to our house.

Course, we keep the light off.
I know a lot about a little, and a little about a lot.

Grew up in Del Rio, my grandfather always handed out oranges, apples and bananas on Halloween. The kids would get pissed off at him and bust them on the side of his house.

Any sugar filled candy is Type-II diabetes in a wrapper.
