Anyone else plagued with the swarms of tricker treaters?

Only 10 past 7 and already had 160 kids with more on the way. Oh and about 10 thank yous.....Was just under 300 last year. Anyone else seeing crazy amounts of kids and having to dump lots of $$ into candy?

Wow, that can definitely get costly! I used to get about 150 kids at one place that I lived in in BC. I went to get more candy twice, and after I ran out the third time I put a sign up on the door, "Sorry out of candy Happy Halloween!". You gotta draw the line somewhere! I have only had 20 kids so far tonight, and none for the last hour.

The wife made up fifty baggies of candy and as of right now we've had 14 trick or treaters.
Uh oh! I feel a gut-ache coming on.

Tricker Treaters were about 60, down from last year.

But it was an interesting night, cops just finally left, they were here since about 5:30PM. Coroners just left also, and they left with a body, Wow!!!! I really don't know what happened, but there was a young couple renting the home, something not good happened. No one is talking.

We planned for 120 and not one trick or treater so far tonight.

Lucky we bought my favorite ( O Henry).

Well I will be turning the lights out now and all those O Henry's are mine.

We had maybe 25 kids -about normal for our area. As usual, we have *urp* lots of leftovers.

No cops or dead bodies though.
