Big fan of these 3-card pokemon booster packs I think once as a kid I got a little pack of halloween themed crayons, that was fun Another time I got a pack of instant oatmeal and that one was less good

World Famous W posted:anti-halloween chick tracts I think it's implied in the word "treat". If the treat is bad then it is inherently not a treat and the person giving it under such a term should be scorned. That said I want some of these freaky little dudes or some dino toys as a treat.

A guy I know offers spooky kids books for trick-or-treaters at Halloween, he calls it All Hallows Read. He builds up a big collection of dozens and dozens of books during the year (and has a whole lot of people who grab books for him when they spot any going cheap) and apparently it's always a big hit with the neighbourhood kids. A lot of the local kids have been getting books from him for the past several years and look forwards to it.

Stickers have been fun now and then as a cheap thorw-in, those finger puppets are still the best though.

We are doing the pokemon boosters, fun-sized play dohs with a variety of wacky mix-ins, and bags of gummy bears. I always like the idea of giving non-candy treats, partly because the Mars co. mixes of candy have so saturated the market that I feel like kids must be getting the same five candies everywhere, but mostly because I remember when I was a trick-or-treater, getting a weird little toy or activity was like a multiplier of the perceived value of my haul. Sure, I had tons of candy, but now I had something to do as well, or something I could keep!

Anonymous Robot posted:I always like the idea of giving non-candy treats, partly because the Mars co. mixes of candy have so saturated the market that I feel like kids must be getting the same five candies everywhere, Yes! Even when I was a kid in the 90s those mixes were getting steadily more ubiquitous and I hate to give a whole holiday over to Mars, or worse, Nestlé. I swear to god the whole "don't trust a treat that isn't prepackaged" thing was engineered by them.

As best I can remember I never, ever got a non-candy treat as a kid. I definitely like the idea, though. (I loved the Pokémon Trick-or-Trades until I found out it was just existing cards re-issued and marked with a promo stamp in the corner. C'mon, guys, at least do custom artwork for the holiday.)Buttchocks posted:Who doesn't love stamps! "...I don't get it." "That's a demon. She's in Hell, kid, and that's where she came from."

btw if you have a stock of non-food things for trick or treaters you can signal it with a teal pumpkin, helps out kids with food allergies https://www.foodallergy.org/our-initiatives/awareness-campaigns/living-teal/teal-pumpkin-project

To her credit she stocked it up right after I told her, but wow she lives in a different world sometimes.

My daughter's school is pretty full-on against allergens so I probably had a far earlier tip-off than some. My mom just likes garish colors, she's got searing purple lights and a Mackenzie-Childs checkered jack-o'-lantern for decor and it's like Tim Burton was an old lady. She probably just saw teal at Target and went for it.

dear parents, as I do every year I will be passing out packs of razorblades for the kids who need or want to shave. If you have a child who does not need or want to shave or has other medical reasons to not be around razors, PLEASE avoid my house. Please DO NOT shame hirsute children on Halloween any more than they already experience on other days, for instance by calling police(!?) as I've experienced other years.

Killingyouguy! posted:Big fan of these 3-card pokemon booster packs I checked my local game store and those packs only come in sets of 50 and their store only ordered 6 sets, which will be available from tomorrow and can't be pre-ordered. Hopefully I manage to snag a set otherwise I'll have to run all around the city trying to find some. They looked pretty surprised when I said I was actually buying them for trick or treaters and not for myself.
