My parent's neighbourhood was the cat's *** for trick-or-treating as a kid.
Direct across the street from us was two unmarried guys in a huge house that would always give out full sized chocolate bars, next to them was the Old Dutch truck driver who gave out chips. Next to him was the milk man, who always gave out individual chocolate milks.
I recall a few years when the weather was too cold to really trick-or-treat when we'd just hit up those three houses and call it a night. The milk man's family used to baby sit us occasionally, so being a cold slow night they'd just say eff it, and give us 2-3 chocolate milks and tell us to say hi to the parents.
Man, feel like I should have posted this in the nostalgia thread.
Anyways to the task at hand, this is the first year we even bought candy to give out, I'm not expecting any kids really (seldom see them in our complex) but I wanted to have something on hand. If I run out of candy I can break into the cans of pop... kids like tonic water right?
