i think my real answer to the title of this thread is :


1 kid at a time..

from my experience it's all of the gimics that get us children.

Marshmallow fish and chips, lolly pops with a light in the middle, pez dispensers.

Ours are sweeter, fruiter, easier to chew and have more flavour. Plus, as you can see, the creme egg, boiled sweets and sherbet all look a ,lot more apealing. The creme egg has this white sugary, cremy stuff in and the orange bit tastes like oranges.

They taste soooo much better than they sound!

hahaha! I only have to go 1 minutes down the road to find some.

My dad used to work at trebor's factory in Colchester., think they where bought out by Cadbury's. He had to quit coz he couldn't find permanent residence down there and every week he used to come up to Scotland with bags of stuff.

When he left he needed to buy another suitcase for all the sweets he had. We sold them at the school tuck shop - made a good few pounds then.



Anyway I would offer Cola Cubes and sweet tobacco as contenders for the best sweets ever!

* sure sounds like another thread coming up*

any chocolate bar/biscuit that went too big, small or things of that sort that have been crushed into powder to make

i've just come back and this is my hoard. It doesnt look much but it takes up two mixing bowls and ways 1 and a half pounds.http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...uuuuuuuuuu.jpg

AmericanManiac 10-31-2006 02:24 PM

Well i'm on my way outside to sit on the poruch in my costume the kiddies are almost here and i'm ready to see their faces :eek:

ferretchucker 11-01-2006 07:55 AM

wait, if you're in america (sorry if you're not) then wasnt it about 4:30 when you said that.

In england trick or treaters don't come until about 6:30 - 9:00. Anytime that it's dark really.

AmericanManiac 11-01-2006 11:33 AM

My area only trick and treaters are from 6-7, fucking retarded I know. When I was little it use to be 3 hours. This year it rained and I only got about 20 kids if that. But the first group of little kids wouldn't come in my yard cause I was just sitting there not moving with my costume and they didn't know if it was a dummy or a real person it was great. After standing there for about 5 mins they slowly walked up and I jumped up at them sent them screaming on their way with no candy !:D

I did this in my Jason get-up while walking my kids around trick-or-treating. The wife would take the kids to the door of each house and I'd stand at he walkway like a statue until someone would say "he's not real"

Then a quick step and the kids (and quite a few parents) flip out.

two hours well spent:D

It was great my fiance kept telling me to move around I was like um no they get more scared when your not moving at all, because they don't know if your real or fake. I enjoyed even though we didnt have a lot of kids come by, damn weather.

stinking_dylan 11-02-2006 04:18 AM

We had loads of kids come round this year. What really pi$$ed me off was that my wife took our youngest (my other is old enough to go on his own with his mates) together with the little girl next door.

When they went and knocked on next doors house (the house this girl actually lives in) they wouldn't answer! Pretty damn tight not to give anything to kids, but when your own kids are out trick or treating and you pretend you're not in? Shocking.

Anyway, we were giving haribo sweets and cadbury chocolate (diary milk, diary milk bubbly (tates like wispa!), flakes and twirls). I think I must have eaten half the damn chocolate though :D
