How many Trick-or-Treaters drop by your house this year?
 

So far, we've had 3... and we have shit tons of candy left.

****.

Oh well... plenty of candy for the movie theater visits this year.

About a thousand.

Do you mean groups or actual # of each trick or treater? I have had about 8-10 groups. Probably about 25-40 kids total. Seems a little low this year. For awhile, I didn't think we were gonna get much of any. Once it got dark, cars started pulling up along the street and kids got out to go to each house with a light.

My theory is that the Trunk or Treat phenomenon is taking away house to house people. Seems like every year there are more Trunk or Treat events at various churches.

0.

Doorbell disabled, lights turned off.

0, but I prefer it that way. Don't have anyone living anywhere near me.

not many this year

None. I didn't expect any, but I got some candy just in case. Looks like it will be going to work with me on Monday.

A shit ton. This is our first year in this neighborhood, and we are quickly discovering that the thing to do around here is have kids. I had to run out and buy more candy.

I'd probably guess we've had 100 so far (and it's only been dark for an hour here).

Seems like we have roughly around 200, give or take.

Also gave out free kids meals coupon from Applebees.

Yeah, we ran out pretty damn fast, but fortunatley, found some coupons that I mentioned on my previous post.

None. I like it.

Well, it helps when you're standing on the porch yelling "Get off my lawn".

ROFL

same as every year since ive lived here,0

We had zero... same as last year and the year before that.

Being on a main street I guess takes away from kids stopping by. I had full size candy bars to give out the first time... 2 boxes full.

Didn't buy anything this year.

I've lived here 10 years & I've had exactly 0 trick or treaters.

About 50-60 and still have candy left. We got about 2 feet of snow on Thursday and it's all melted the last 2 days. I thought sure on Friday morning we weren't going to have any but it's still 54 degrees out at 8:30 pm.

Two groups, maybe 10-12 kids total.

2 or 3

0 not a one....

But we live on the edge of town, very little traffic around here...

Probably two hundred or more. I just closed up shop, 9:00 is my limit. Time for me to trick or beer at my refrigerator door.

Northside huh?

I got about 30.

I handed out just shy of 1000 pieces of candy. Now depending on the rate (so as not to have any left at the end of the night) I do hand out two instead of just one. And I hit just a bit into my emergency stash of smaller sized candy at around 9:20. I guess around 600 total.

Trick or Beer!!! I love that RJ.

Zero, but I suppose not having the porch light on contributed to that low count.

That a the "Beware of Dog" sign helps. Oh and the taped sound of children screaming & chainsaws helped me keep the count to under 10. ROFL

They shut down Main street from 4-6pm and all the business give out candy. So most of the small ones go there. I took my kids up there & they made out like bandits. Looks like dad has got plenty of chocolate for the next couple of weeks :D

We had a bunch, but we bait them.
I loved Halloween as a kid, and try to pass it on.

20 maybe, but live in a development with a lot of mid 50's people(less younger kids). More candy for me.

We had about 15, which is slightly above average.

My last one was a woman who was probably 25, rather portly and in goth wear, all by herself. I gave her a KitKat bar because I thought she was kind of pathetic.

Zip. Same as always. I live in the Colorado desert.

Not sure, but I bet it was less than three.

Our neighborhood was built in 1978 and most of the residents are original owners, kids are grown and in college. Nothing but GILFs left.

Don't worry if you feel like you're behind. We don't really encourage Chiefs fans to have children around these parts.

Just keep the candy coming.

That's what I'm talkin about.

Went through 7 bags of candy.

Yeah, but did you give any to the kids?

Goth is always pathetic.

Zero. It has been about 24 years since the last ones came by. More candy for me, then.

Are you really creepy-looking or something?

none. none last year, and only 2 or 3 the year before. We live in central Topeka but in an older demographic neighborhood.

About 20, done by 7pm too many parties for the little ones to go to around here between the churches and school.

i was the trick or treater....lol....

Nice play on words. . .

about 140 not counting grandkids

We had around 100 we figure, down a bunch from last year. I loved wearing my costumes when I was a kid, and always disliked the old bitter jackass neighbors who hid in their house to save a few bucks.

I had about 30 this year. One little sh*t tried to take the whole bowl!
He got his hand smacked.....
Little bastard.

Anyone figure out where 'Hamas' buried the little beggars yet?

Go look at my profile pic and then you tell me!

Have his lawyers contacted you yet?? :)

We were out until early evening, didn't get a single trick or treater. Left with a huge bag of Twix and Reeses peanut butter cups that neither of us need. :shake:

instead of candy I hand out bible quotes. The biggest candy in the world is your salvation.

4

3 grandkids, and 1 nephew.

of course, we live out in the country.

sec

remember when youd get a penny from some oldfart? a ****in penny? **** i hated them oldfartin country cheap bastards. took my boy out(in spfld) and after 12 houses he had a bucket full.

ROFL

We were way, way down from years past.

Yeah, now I owe him $1300 a month.

We had a tick over 300 kids come by.

The kids from the 3-6 yrs old range got the good stuff.

Tiny kids that didn't know better and jackass teenagers that didn't dress up got one of those little sleeves of whoppers or a fun-sized hershey bar. C'mon, at least put some effort into it, don't just show up in a football jersey with your backpack in hand.

And the dogs, harmless as they are (being labradors) hung out by the door the whole time just in case anyone thought eggs or TP were a good idea (and petting from the occasional 5 year old kept them content). They'd never hurt anything, but they're big, dark and LOUD; they'll scare you pretty good. Anyone coming by to !@#$ with my house will just move onto the next one.

Bunches, probably a couple hundred or more.
We recently moved to a new location, lots more families with kids around us now where our old house was surrounded by retired folks.

Hell, I remember when we used to get candy apples, popcorn balls, cookies, cupcakes and brownies from the neighborhood old ladies and they were safe to eat. And freak’n delicious too.

It's really sad how society has changed. I don't really think there are that many more deviants out there than there used to be, but with all the media oversaturation of anything bad that happens people with kids are just scared to death. I lived at the end a mile long street when I was a kid, would walk up one side and down the other and come back with a grocery bag full of candy, no adults, nothing bad ever happened. Now kids (at least up here) have to trick or treat with their parents during set hours in daylight. What the **** is that? Are we really supposed to assume now that there's some leering child molesting pervert on every block?

Were the 70s really that long ago? :shake:

13 kids total in four groups, which is about twice as many as we usually have.

Someone stole my giant pumkin.

When I find out which of the local HS kids did it, I think I'm going to trick them...by either a car full of live pigeons or maybe a live animal(opossum or something).

I've seen what 3 pigeons will do to the inside of a car in a short afternoon. It looks like an elephant had dysentary in that car.

I had about 30. They ranged in size from tiny and cute, to twice my size. One very large 16-17 year old girl, who had to be carrying around 15 lbs of candy in a sack.

Good point, we used to basically get cut loose to run crazy that night.
I wouldn’t dream of letting my boy out like that now.

3 Groups of Kids / About 8 Total

My neighbors told me last year they had 0 kids the whole night.

Yeah, we've really lost something. Sure wish I knew where it went.

We quit passing out candy about two years ago. The last time we did it a group of questionable teenagers came to my door and while I was giving them candy one of them looked past me and said "nice tv". All I could picture was this turd and his buddies coming back later to take another bigger more electronic treat.

My favorite part of Halloween is going to the store and buying only a bag of apples and some razorblades. When the checkout chick gives me a horrified enough look, I ask her out.

about a dozen. seems like every year fewer kids come. Too bad, I guess.

Not one. But I live in a building with controlled access and very few kids living in it.
