Halloween - More kids than we have ever seen
Mikezilla:
I was pissed. I just got my house in April, and was super excited to decorate the house cause the neighborhood was good, and BAM. Maybe 5 or 6 kids. And they were little too. One was crying cause he got so scared of my house. I went all out, spent a TON of money, had a party, but barely any kids. I was bummed. :'( Not to mention I got a shitload of candy, and I cant even eat it cause Im a diabetic. I made custom zombies bursting outta the ground, a dead dude hanging from my tree, bought blacklights and carved 10 pupkins, tombstones, spider webbing, skeletons etc... Then my buddy who lives about 2 blocks over said he had more than 300 kids at his house and had to turn them away cause he ran out of candy. :banghead:
Im hesitant to even decorate for Christmas cause nobody probably wont even see it.
Stupid seniors on my block. They ruin everything. They need to kick the bucket already... The lady nextdoor looks like she is dead already...

I got about 80 kids which is about par for the course.
I always give out big candy bars which is always fun to see the kids faces light up when they see them. Now that I've been here a few years I hear the kids say stuff like "Alright, I told you this was the house" and one of the parents told me my house is famous. Growing up there was always the one cool house in the neighborhood that gave out the big candy bars, so I knew that I had to be that house when I got older :)

There is something kids remember when they get a full sized bar. At our last house we were there for 25 years and some of the kids grew up and brought their kids around because they remembered the bars. When you figure it out a full sized bar is not much different in price than a hand full of those mini bars since you never give out only 1 of the minis. We are in a new area now since we downsized 5 years ago (too much upkeep for a large lot) so I guess what is happening is that the kids who were just born when we moved in are getting bigger and more and more of them are coming out for halloween.
