A lot. The weather was rainy off and on. I left the bowl out front with a 'please take 2' sign. I should have said "Please take 4"...Half the bowl was still there when we got home from the neighbors 4 hours later There weren't many trick or treaters out this year.

We had beaucoup candy left over. Last year, we ran out because we had a bunch of kids and I didn't have enough, so this year, I bought enough for all the kids we had last year. This year, we had five kids.
That's why I buy candy I like, so it won't go to waste if we have leftovers. I'll also bring some to work with me and put a basket out on my desk for people to help themselves.

The last kid that came to the door got a huge handful of chocolate bars, just so i could get rid of them faster. She was like " WOW, thanks Lady!". LOL.

I spent $104 on candy and we do not have a single piece left. We ran out of candy at 8:40. We had more trick or treaters than ever this year.

We had a ton of leftover candy compared to usual. I bought $20 worth and we easily had half of it left - last year we ran out too early so I bought more.

We only had about FIVE trick or treaters (we usually have five times that number at least), aside from a group of about 10 teens that came by that I also handed out to - but not all of them wanted candy, some were just there to walk around with their friends.

It kind of made me sad, I love seeing all of the kids in their costumes and being the best house to hit for candy on the street. Hopefully we have more next year.

what did you give out- Godiva?

We had maybe 20 kids come by. We only went through one bag of candy and I bought three.

We have a good 4 handfuls left.

We took our littles out from 5:30-6:30pm. Came home and flipped our light on and turned off our light at 9:30pm and there were still kids out. But I was focusing on getting my littles down to bed and didn't need anymore knocking.

My dh usually spends $40+ on candy. This year I said 1 BIG bag of old fashion candy. It was like $6! I was like there is NO NEED to spend that much on candy!
