    Actually I don't buy Halloween candy any more because there are only 5 families that live on my dirt road. All the kids are grown now. Usually I keep a few little candy bars around at Halloween, just in case.. The other night though I went to a kids Halloween party to take pictures for a newspaper that I write/take photos for. There was "plenty" of candy to go around and they handed me a bag of candy just for coming! Like the kid I am when it comes to gifts and sweets,( on occasion) I went home and looked at my bag of loot and then happily ate a few of my favorites. I saved the rest.

    The only creature I expect to see on Halloween night is possibly the black bear that comes to fill his face with birdseed before settling down for his long winter nap... .It will be just another quiet night in the woods...

    Two bags-- one Hershey's bars, the other Kit Kats. Both GONE. My hubby has a bit of a sweet tooth, so I won't be restocking until the very last minute ; )

    We go through this same routine every Halloween....

    Actually, we never get trick or treaters. We go out with our kids. But I don't normally like the candy that they get, so I buy candy like we will have trick or treaters. Then we put it in the bowl and eat it a little at a time till we're fat and happy! So I guess my answer is all the candy (Snickers, Starburst, M&Ms, and Tootsie Rolls)

    My fiance and I bought a bag of tootsie rolls. There was 420 tootsie rolls in that bag, and we ate all of them in two weeks. Pretty bad, huh?! Also, we don't plan on restocking since we won't be home. It's our daughters first Halloween, and we've decided to take her trick or treating.

    We have already bought about three bags of candy (two chocolate and one Jolly Rancher mix) and have about half of it left. We will probably have to restock with one more bag. Between my husband and kids, we usually have to buy about four bags prior to Halloween.

    I've already eaten a whole bag of Reeses Peanut Butter Cups. And yes I've already replaced 2 bags.

    None. I'm sorry but I don't give out candy because it is not good for children. We have a huge epidemic with overweight youths and I will not participate in contributing to that.

  • None. I tend to binge on candy and then not eat any for a really long time. I am now in one of those really long candy breaks.

  • I sampled a few pieces, but not much.

    I have back up goodies, just in case.

    Last year, a friend of mine that worked for

    Libby's gave small cans of fruit

    and veggies for back up

    for Halloween.
