Post 'em here!
Good plan. You'll only have to do that one year. Word will spread and you'll never get another trick-or-treater again.
Pretty much the same boat. Rural home, don’t expect any trick-or-treaters. I’ve got some candy bars on hand just in case so I’ll be watching the ballgame and waiting till I’m certain there won’t be any kids coming buy. Then I get to eat the candy myself.
I’m on door duty while the Mrs. takes our three critters out trick-or-treating. No idea what we’ll get for traffic - anywhere from 10 to 100 kids.
I am going to be an adult bully like this dousch bag in ND and give a message to all the kids I feel are over weight.....(sarc)
What a POS she is.
Lights out, shades down, poodles on tranqS
We used to get a hundred kids , if we got thirty these days, I’d be surprised.
I always get stuck eating all the leftover candy. Evil me. :-)
We ignore all three, although we provide overnight secure shelter for any homeless black cats in the neighborhood on Hallowe'en.. :-)
We had well over a hundred at our old house, which was in a more suburban neighborhood. It was fun, but I’m fine with this, too.
And if that will save one Kid(or adult) from Hell’s Gates, then it will be worth it!
woops forgot this.

All Hallows Eve or Halloween is really the vigil eve to the feast of All Saints, a Roman Catholic holy day on November 1.
Here is an interesting article:

No kids here, and we rarely get trick or treaters, so I’ll probably just figure it out tomorrow.
We didn't get any trick-or-treaters the first couple of years, but now we put up a 'haunted maze' every year.
We'll be entertaining, providing fun childhood memories, and passing out candy to hundreds of local kids.
We be a thug nation, Chicago is the main crib .. Just win, baby!
I'm still debating over whether to add a "Closed due to Obamacare" sign.
Yep.
Wow, never KNEW the Cards were cheating throughtout the playoffs! Was paying more attention to the playoffs going on between Boston and Detroit. Detroit plays really, really tough baseball, but do not cheat.
Have you noticed since game 3 ended, the Red Soxs have GOTTEN, really, really TOUGH themselves against the Cardinals? Unlike the LA Dodgers, the Red Soxs having dealt with seeing their beloved Boston attacked by terrorists this year and coming back from a previous season that was just awful, they are TAKING NO GARBAGE from St. Louis.
Boston ends it tonight in 6 games.
I think the Boston home fans tonight will make the Cards fans look like Pacifists. LOL
Passing out candy and a can of sliced beets. Years ago as a joke I offered candy or, as an option, a can of beets. To my amazement, one kid chose the beets. I have offered the beets every year since and there is always one kid who takes them. The kid apparently likes beets.
