Re: Halloween candy

Sounds almost exactly like our stash from last year.
I always make sure to get stuff that we like because we end up eating half of it anyway! Chat Icon

Thats what I tried telling DH- but he insisted we get it-

Last year we waited til the last minute-(hey I had just had a baby)

Couldnt find anything- and ended up running out- and then he had to go out and get more....

Not a chance I'm buying mine now. I can't have the bag in my house calling out to me to please open it.

I'll be getting the good stuff:
Snickers
3 Musketeers
Peanut Butter cups

Also I"ve told my kids that candy spoils after a few days so if I get caught with it beforehand, the jig is up

Re: Halloween candy

I have to get some but waiting until closer to Halloween.

We don't get many kids, so I don't want to break into it early if I am going to end up with leftovers.

I'm such a dork...I grew up in a house that was in a very rural area, so we never got any trick or treaters. Well, DH and I just moved into suburbia and we are on a cul-de-sac and I am SO excited for Halloween this year. I'm going to buy the huge candy bars for the kids....I remember loving those when I was young.

I had an urge for blowpops the other day (don't know why...) so when I was in Costco I bought a huge box of blowpops and I'll give out those. After I weed out the good flavors, of course.

Re: Halloween candy

Well I dont buy candy cause I dont want it in my house or I will pick on it all day, and we are never home on Halloween anyway so it would be a waste.

Re: Halloween candy

I actually bought this cute thing at CVS. It was a little "coffin" with "body parts." Eyeballs, feet, hands, that kind of thing. They are gummy (and not bloody). I think the kids will get a kick out of them.

Re: Halloween candy

We don't get any trick-o-treaters at my house. We live in and upstairs apt. on a somewhat busy street, so we don't get many kiddies running around.

Just as well, b/c we don't get home until late and don't get to see the kids.

BUT, I still buy the candy, especially the kind that has "fall" wrapping and put it in my candy dish at home. It's decorative and good!

I also buy halloween candy for work. A few parents bring their kids in, but more for me to snack on. Chat Icon

we're bad - we got foaming gumballs for the older kids ( they turn your mouth green or blue or whatever the color is ) called witches brew and we got tootsie rolls and toys for the littler kids.we always get ours early because we special order them.
last year we gave out candied eyeballs that spurt goo when you bit them. i like to give out strange candyChat Icon

Re: Halloween candy

That's why I could never buy candy early, I eat it! My DH's Easter Basket 2 yrs ago was almost all gone by Easter because I ate it! Now he gets mostly cadbury eggs (because I don't care for them!!)
