Guest Sundancefisher Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 TRICK OR TREAT!!! I am expecting 450 kids this evening. It would not surprise me with the weather and being a friday if it exceeds 500 or even 600 kids... Is it better to say the fewer the better or better I get rid of as much candy as possible?

admin Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 Wow, that's a lot. We'd be lucky to get 100 I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darrinhurst Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 Last year we expected 100, but ended up with around 15-20. I always see lots of kids running around, but for some reason we don't get a lot. I'll be out with my kids tonight going door to door, so the wife will have to count all the little devils.

LynnF Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 I always count on 150. Bad weather last year = 25. This year I think it will be close to estimate if the weather holds. I live on a main street but I don't seem to get the traffic the smaller streets and cul de sacs do. That's too bad....cuz I have good candy and my dog is gonna be dressed up and sitting outside with me in the garage drinking wine (me drinking, not him) so that makes it the best Halloween house in the neighbourhood. Even better than Dave's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LynnF Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 That's awesome! I'll trade you our resident skunk-that's-the-size-of-a-bermese-mountain-dog for your itty bitty porcupine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I normally get about 60. Our neighborhood in Marborough is getting older with more teens and empty nesters now. I usually turn out the lights at about 8:30 or 9:00. The little ones finish by then.

Guest Sundancefisher Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 Totally surprised. I had only 202 kids. With the weather and Friday and all I totally thought there would be a zillion. Neighbourhood must of hit a milestone in average age of kids. We had a lot fewer older kids around. I heard rumors there were a lot of Halloween parties for kids to go to instead.
