every year we spend around $50.00 on candy to pass out to all the kids from 6 to 8 pm , so this year we are doing something different ...we are going to "treat" our selves ! We are going to go out for dinner & then to the movies . We will spend the same amount as we would have on candy , but this year it will be for us . We are not decorating either , too much work for just one day . We're in our 70's so it's a lot of work for too little time . Is anyone eels doing anything different ? Or just not passing out candy ? 4951

I'm going to sit in a darkened room in the upstairs of my house, open a window, and yell "Get off my property" to each and every kid that tries to beg from me. Last year I just screamed it through my closed front door. 4951

@CantStandTex: Maybe you will get visited by the 3 ghosts of Halloween and they will teach  you a lesson about sharing or uh........something........

All I can say is it's not like it used to be. Last night we walked outside to put out my dd pumpkin and she looked up and down our street and said "Mommy, there is only one more night until Halloween!! Why aren't the houses decorated yet?"... our street (besides our house) is dark and barely any decorations. Depressing. Halloween used to be so much fun for the kiddos and now it seems hardly anyone celebrates it. 4951

@frebu: Don't get me started on the sensationalistic, trivial, materialistic, commercialized holiday of Christmas.

We don't have trick or treating in our neighborhood.  They threw a big party last weekend for everyone and passed candy out to the kids there. 4951

@Bearfin: You know what Halloween decorations are where I'm from? One or two carved pumpkins, maybe a potted mum (not what is worn to homecoming), colorful fall leaves falling from the trees, and the ability to see your own breathe in the air!! Not orange spotlights and hideous inflatables.

I have 2 beautiful cushion mums in my side garden , 1 is orange & 1 is yellow. We mowed all the leaves Saturday & by Sunday there was just as many on the ground as Saturday , so next week we will mow them up again . I love this time of the year with all the leaves changing colors & the weather changing , next month maybe we will have some snow . 4951
