All Hallow's Eve

-Don’t keep the light off and hide in the back of the house; face the little monsters

-Give real candy; no apples, popcorn balls, dum-dums, sugarless/healthy garbage or other lame stuff, and remember that there’s nothing fun about the fun size

-Give the hobos (the teenagers that shouldn’t be trick or treating- often dressed as "hobos") whatever they want, though you don't want to; they’re scary

-Half price candy tomorrow! Don’t wait or you’ll be left with only candy corn.

This is just common sense. I thought everyone knew whatever's left over is for yourself, right? We've all made the dum-dum mistake, ending up on November 1st with a load of lame, tiny lollipops that will survive in your house until the following October 30th. Might as well get something you enjoy, because you'll always buy too much candy with the subconscious knowledge that you get the leftovers.

And giving out dental floss/toothpaste/bible tracts/pennies is a quick way to get your house redecorated, though I only ran into that once or twice as a kid.

Another interesting question is what do you do when you run out of candy? I saw a lot of houses turn the lights out by 7:30 because they were out of candy. Cowards. If there are at least two people in the house, send one out for more candy when you see you're running low. You do it for beer, don't you? Or get that change jar that all men have and give handfuls away. But basically you're right; always overbuy so you can eat the excess.
