Because Halloween is tomorrow, I figured that I would start the thread a day early.

Does everybody have plans for Halloween? Are you going to give out candy, go to parties, or watch movies?

I was going to give out the candy this year like I usually do, but I’m not going to this year. Instead, I'll probably just watch the movies on TV.

Even if I did end up giving out the candy, I probably would’ve not gotten a lot of kids anyway.

What my dad did was give some of the candy away to some of our neighbors who have little kids.

For the first time in 51 years, my family is not serving out candy (due to COVID-19).

I am staying in my room and having a Halloween themed movie marathon.

This was the first time this year that my dad decided not to decorate our house for Halloween, but we're also watching a Halloween movie as well.

We're staying in watching horror movies and eating candy, we won't be getting any kids this year but no reason not to enjoy some treats for ourselves.

Yep!! The only reason we aren't totally pigging out on the candy is because we are drinking beer !! :lol::crazy:

Happy Halloween. I spent it dressed up as a Big Y employee. In other words, I worked last night at Big Y, which is a grocery store. Honestly, I didn't mind working. I had nothing to do anyway but that's like that every year. I didn't watch any Halloween movies as they are too scary for me. I worked from 5:15 to 9:15 pm and when I got home had something to eat. Was going to have a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup but if I eat it too late then I'm up all night with a feeling that I would have to throw up. See, I get heartburn in my throat and it feels like I have to throw up but I never do. It's just very uncomfortable.

I never have any kids anyway. I mean some kids walk by but I have the outside lights turned off. I just don't want to be bothered. I might as well eat the candy myself.

I didn't do anything out of the ordinary today. I also didn't see anybody outside trick-or-treating at all. It was pretty cold outside today, so not really the ideal weather.

Also, I passed by a lot of stores with signs outside saying "Due to COVID-19 safety - we are not handing out any candy."

I had a virtual Halloween party, and it went quite well. Unfortunately, it was BYO treats, but I brought the good stuff! :)

I had a very simple Halloween and for dinner we got hot dogs and we had fun. As for trick-or treaters only two came to my house but Mom baked Halloween cookies when I was taking a nap but Halloween was great

I know! This is about the only time out of the year we indulge in candy, and I didn't think I'd like orange beer, but I had to force myself not to drink too much because it tasted more orange than beer and was too easy to drink it like orange juice or orange soda haha

I've never even heard of orange beer. Btw, wouldn't it have been ok to go Trick or Treating this year considering that costumes have masks?

Our neighborhood had a lot of houses decorated. Me and a few of the neighbors set tables out by the end of the driveway. I put candy in little cups. We had about 45 kids. We sat by the garage and greeted everyone. We had a few parents say they really appreciated what we were doing.

Oh wow! Budweiser put it out ! We didn't have that here? I don't think? I didn't notice it in any stores I go to here ! My Hub likes regular Bud Light , I would have picked him up some of the orange BL had I seen it ! ;)

One year we had pumpkin beer, it wasn't a name brand beer that put it out from what I remember ? ;)
