My sister is 23 and still dresses up and goes out knocking doors for candy... and I find it weird but I let her do her. It got me thinking, at what age do you think someone should stop Trick r Treating at? Just curious.

The rule is, if you dress up you get candy. I don't care how old you are, but you have to be dressed up.

I always end up over buying and want that candy GONE! No age restrictions for me either.

The key to buying Halloween candy is to buy the things you would want to eat yourself. We freeze the leftovers and slowly eat them. Still working on last years!

I make an exception for parents watching their young kids. I have no problem rewarding good, responsible parents.

Plus, we give out juice boxes. Sometimes, when parents see their kids walking away with juice boxes, they’ll ask for one themselves. Walking around the neighborhood with kids is thirsty work! I’ll happily give juice to parents!
