Pretty chilly night here in GP but we probably still had about 30 kids come by. Mostly all little buggers and none that look like they've been shaving for a couple years already lol.

Over 30 kids at South Edmonton. The last group of 5 or 6 were over 20 years old. Weird, but they got treats too. Just regret, I should gave beer to the oldest one, but.... Happy Halloween!

Zero. One of the perks of living in an adult-only building. The difficulty will be dealing with 65 high-on-sugar-grade-8-students in the morning.

LOL The morning after Halloween, sugar hangover for kids. My son ate only two small pieces of candy tonight but I am sure other kids had a lot more than that. I was just telling my friend what a nightmare it's gonna be for teachers. I feel for them.

16 kids by 8pm, last 2 were 16 yr olds and were given the play dough my son had collected and didn't want.

Last year we had closer to 50 kids.

Six kids before leaving to go trick or treating with my nieces and nephews. Got lots of candy and apparently I'm a 9.5 on the milf scale according to some college kids who were dressed up as the guys from the big bang theory. At least I hope they were dressed up.

I posted on the Halloween Treat thread before I saw this one.

About 25 mostly very young kids with parents waiting on the side walk. 1 teenage girl collecting coins for Unicef? Something about clean water anyway.

Last few kids that came by got about a dozen mini chocolate bars each. Still got a pile left.

Less than 20. All but one were kids. The one teenager gave me a good laugh; as I went to the door I could see some one bouncing up and down... when I opened the door he was doing the "Gangnam Style" dance.

I dunno the exact numbers because I was out partying, but it looks like we had 44 this year (we had 44 full size chocolate bars) and I saw all the boxes empty when I stumbled into m house
