What do you hand out to trick-or-treaters?

On Halloween, what do you hand out to the trick-or-treaters who come to your door? I usually make up a baggie filled with various things like mini chocolate bars, tootsie rolls, sour candies and whatever else comes on sale.

We generally don’t even celebrate Halloween and lock ourselves in the house with the doorstep light out. However, this year we’ll be giving an assortment of candy out.

Enjoy the time with your community!! I rarely recognize the kids and wait to see their parents so I know who is who LOL

I’ll probably lock myself in the house while my parents hand out candy. 😅

I’m not much of a people person.

We get a bag of assorted candy, although as a broke guy back in my early 20s we had a Halloween costume party but didn't have candy so I handed out cans of vegetables. 🤣

That made me lol!!

When we’ve run out of candy, I have had individual bags of chips to hand out and sometimes juice pouches. I’ve considered giving out coins too!!

Nah. We’re way too far out in the country for trick or treaters to come visit.

I’ll actually be leading a night hike on Halloween. I plan to bring candy for the participants.

It’s an area that supposedly has a “vortex” or a place where a lot of paranormal activity occurs.
