LMAO I gave out candy a few years ago. One bucket had candy in it.

The other bucket had what looked like candy but instead had pieces of paper that said stuff like "Greed leads to ruin", "Nobody likes a bully", "Mind your manners" and other useful life lessons.

Which bucket I pulled out depended on how well-behaved the kids were at my door. If they were nice and polite or were just a little rambunctious but otherwise were ok, then they got the candy. If they were being pricks, rude, etc. they got the life lessons bucket.

If there was a group of kids being pricks but some in the group were polite, I'd give ALL of them the life lessons bucket but would call the well-behaved kids back to actually give them some candy.

We usually got our treats. I don’t think anyone ever got pranked for not handing out treats. I remember houses that got TP’d for handing out “healthy” treats or toothbrushes though. Ell oh ell! My mother told stories of kids egging houses in her youth, but warned me against it. Eggs can do legit damage!
As a teenager, we TP’d houses just as a prank. Not because they refused to hand out treats or handed out bad ones. It was usually someone we knew. I even went back the next day to help clean up once. Ell oh ell!

No, I only received candy and then I'd hide small amounts of it in all different places so my parents wouldn't know how much I had.

Hahaha. Yes sometimes someone might have something a little scary that scared me.

Sometiems if you consider a trick something other then candy. I have found all kinds of odd stuff before in my Halloween basket. Toothbrushes. Dental stuff like that. Random junk from someone’s house. Money (not complaining) apples and fruits. Home baked goods.

Not that I am complaining. They did not have to give me anything at all…. But. Sometimes it was strange.

Yes. The treat were either the NyQuil size cup or small bathroom size cup of red wine. We judge cup size by quality kid costume
