What to do.........

Oh dear, I've just logged into GN and spotted this thread while chomping on a mini Mars bar, the fourth since 4 o'clock today. We got home after 7 on Monday after looking after DGS2, so most of the tinies had been and gone We only got rid of 3 out of our 56 bars. There are significantly fewer in the cauldron now though

No point giving them to the DGS as their sweets are strictly rationed. It'll be Easter by the time they've eaten the treats they collected on Monday.

And last week I ate all the mixed bag of sticky lollies and chews I bought as an alternative to the chocolate. My conscience got the better of me when I thought about the damage to be done to little milk teeth. My dentist will be looking askance at my old molars, yet again.

radicalnan Snap! I also bought fingers of fudge because I'm a bit partial and yippee, no callers! ...14 still to go, tough work, but a shame to waste them.

I'd check the sell-by date on the sweets!This year I used some from last year, as they still hadn't reached their sell-by date.

Same thing happened to me. I have since been told that you have to leave a pumpkin, or a light;, some indication so the children know they can call.
I'll remember that for next time.

I had to rush into hospital on Monday evening with a bleed in my replaced knee (never felt agony like it)so I missed any Trick or Treaters. I will give the sweeties I had already bought to my next-door-neighbours' two little granddaughters.

I'm an old grump at Hallow e'en. If the GC aren't coming round I lock the doors, pull the curtains and ignore any bells or knocks. I don't put a pumpkin out but it made no difference this year - the bell ringing and door knocking occurred and reoccurred with even greater intensity! Sweets? Bah! Humbug!

Phoebes I think you deserve the sweeties yourself.
I hope it's OK now, sounds very painful indeed.
