I got a half dollar from one of my neighbors one Halloween and there was this lady who would give out cans of pop. One of our other neighbors was a math teacher and he would always hand out rulers and protractors and stuff like that but only to the older kids. He still gave the really small kids candy.

Hey Mom! I'm going Trick Or Treating!

I heard the neighbors are giving out condoms and cigarettes!

Hopefully someone will be giving out beer, and then we can have a great Halloween party!

One of my old teachers that lived on my grandparent road would give out weird stuff. Never candy though. One year she invited people in for hot chocolate. I dont remember the other stuff.

Besides candy, I've gotten little things like coins and also halloween pencils and erasers. The one house I remember the most was at my old neighborhood a guy was giving out toys to people and he let me pick one out. I got a plastic doll. Now, it's a piece of junk to me, but I was just 4 then and I was excited!

Also, there's a house in my cousin's neighborhood that gives out FULL size candy bars to trick-or-treaters. That's pretty cool!:)

After reading through this thread, it suddenly doesn't seem as funny anymore that the dentist down the street used to hand out toothbrushes...

pennies and a small bag of chips. Always liked those, though, and I think the one lady still gives them out. I get them every year :D

Back in the good old days before all the weirdo's took over it was normal to get popcorn balls, cookies and other home made treats! Oh, they were so good! :liplick:
My friend , who grew up in the 40's in Detroit, would get these tiny loaves of Wonder Bread from their breadman. Cool, huh?:D

I've got one of those before too. But coins...apples...chips....I live in a really small town so it's nothing for people I hardly know to just take me inside and get stuff out of their kitchen. The old people always like to do that....:D

A long time ago when I was little I got pencils, apples, popcorn balls. Also McDonald's coupons/gift certificates were popular for like a free sundae - do they still give those out? Religious tracts were always a special treat :( Balloons, 25 cents, and once I just got yelled at for being to old and no candy!

I've gotten pencils, Jesus worship booklet, and some small Juice drink before. That's all I can remember.

Oh yeah, once when I was like 4, this drunk guy was holding a box of donuts and he put one in my bag. I was mad when my mom wouldn't let me eat it. I had no clue what was going on at the time.

Yeah that's a real shame. I know some parents who don't even allow their children to go trick or treating because you just can't trust anybody. When I was a kid that was my favorite night of the year. The only night we could be outside after dark. It's sad some kids now have to miss out on that.
I love your avatar BTW, it's cool.
