You are not alone. We had a steady stream last year and TWO this year! As I mentioned in another thread, we also have a tin full of sweets and mini chocolate bars that we are certainly not going to eat. I'll keep the chocolate bars for when GS comes over, and to pop in the rucksack when we go walking, but the rest (packets of swizzles, refreshers, lollies and chews) I have decided will be donated to the ladies who run the junior football club refreshment stand to add to their existing supplies! If we keep them, I know that DH will not be able to resist dipping in! He's in enough trouble with the dentist as it is!

Of course, if you hadn't bought any little treats, loads of children would have called(sods law)

It would be a shame to waste them!

Last year I had lots of children turn up at my house for Halloween and as more children have moved into the area I made sure I had plenty of treats on hand last night - but no little "monsters" called!!! I now have a basket full of mini chocolate bars. Seems I will have to eat them all myself! thlgrin
