You don't have a dentist that will pay the kids for their candy?
There are a few around here that will pay something like $.10 per pound. My kids go through and pick out the stuff they want to keep and then go turn the rest in.

10 small items is kind of lame but I don't think getting rid of most of it is

Our kids can eat what they can get when they want it. No restrictions.

You really did that to your kids? Really? That sucks.

Wow, talk over protective. You throw their candy away? That's like telling

I buy it from them. I make an offer, they choose to sell or not. Win-win

No rules for 48 hours. After that, sell it to the dentist and get rid of it.

"Throw away"? Just confiscate the surplus for Daddy and Mommy's treat stash.

I'm firmly against Trunk or Treat. It's just plain lazy.

I'm too lazy to do such analysis before determining which candy to give out
Tricky

I'm bothered by 16 year olds with no costumes. That's just mooching.

I'm with you on that. I've seen gangs of teenagers that looked like they just

In Utah, IMHO, all it does is alienate non-LDS with kids.

Then they should have accepted the invite to the Trunk or Treat.
BYUtka

You are assuming they were invited in the first place.
buzzard
10/29/14 1:43pm
If you go to trunk or treat I think you should still give out candy on Halloween
Tricky

I'm sympathetic when Halloween happens on a Sunday
