Poll question: How many little Trick or Treaters do you expect tonight?
In the 5 years I've lived in this house, I've never seen more then 6 trick or treaters and that was about 3 years ago. I live in the country so generally the moms take their kids into town where they can actually walk door to door.

Nonetheless I always buy 3 big bags of Reeses just in case. Yum!

1. 0, I'm going out tonight.
Even if I was staying home I'd still say zero because they never come to my place. My guess is because they want to go to a more densely populated area or are celebrating in town. Of course that didn't stop me from buying some candy ;-).

2. Got 10 in the first 20 minutes
At that rate I am going to have 60! I am going to have to start giving out one candy bar instead of two.

If I really start running out, do you think the older kids would be just as glad to get cigarettes?

5. Sadly, zero
No trick or treating in my building. Well, there really aren't any kids here anyway. I miss the little bastards each Halloween.

6. We get a handful or two
Most of the little ones in our neighborhood belong to heavily fundy families, and either their parents don't let them celebrate "satanic" rituals, or their parents won't let them go near the Weird People's House (that would be us). Our neighbors are almighty uncertain about us, possibly because of all the Goth teenagers hanging around here (my stepsons and their innumerable hangers-on).
