Trick or Treat!

[Clairaudient]

Less than 2 weeks until Halloween and while I'm sure we're all busy sifting through the "What should I dress up as?" threads. On the day of this great event however our child like innocence is sparked once more. By innocence I of course mean desire for free candy.

So I ask you Escapists, what's the strangest, best or worst thing you've ever gotten tossed into your Halloween bag?
(forum search used diligently before topic-starting)

I've gotten cans of soda (which weighed down the bag for the rest of the night), 5 dollar bills and toothbrushes. Seriously people, where's my Fun Size Coffee Crisp?

Worst thing? Snack bags...Simple as that. Pretzels do not belong in a candy bag you bastard! You know..I have yet to dress up as anything, I might pay a visit to costume palace since I'm getting my paycheck Monday...

One single pound coin and the cheap bastard told me to split it between the four of us. (-_-)
I miss trick-or-treating... I kinda wish I still had friends to do it with... even though I'm 15 now.

mints.

The best thing I got once was a bag of Reeses. Seriously, some old lady got a couple of bags but didn't even give out all of one so she gave me the whole other bag. That was a win.

But then some fat bastard gave me a health bar. When I say fat bastard, I mean it. This was one of those jolly fat guys who didn't mind being fat. He would dress up as Santa at Christmas and made sure his belly jiggled whenever he laughed. He also liked playing jokes, which is why he got health bars for the kids.

Hey fuck you (No I love you.) ! I'd take a Clossal 100 bar anyday :3, but then again I'm a gym rat...Hehehe..

A shoe.

Don't you know? Having only one shoe is the new fashion trend!

I got a shoe in my treat bags, because I had the treat bags to ask for free sweets. You see, treat bags is a funny euphemisms for testicles. And I, a man, have known the pain of being kicked in the testicles.

Plastic toys, glow in the dark rings, etc... ANything that's not really candy.

about 2 years ago i was trick or treating with 3 other people. one of my friends decided to ask for something strange at each house like if they had a bench he would ask for the bench in lieu of candy. at one house he asked for a light bulb that was colored and the lady actually gave all of us a colored light bulb. that same Halloween i got a rock and 4 king size candy bars from the same house(we went back to the same house 4 times).

 

[worstknightmare]

a kite, some lady was handing out kites instead of candy on Halloween.
It was weird, but at least I had something to do the next day,
fly a kite into a tree that is.

Potatoes

A Jehovah's Witness pamphlet. No offense to any Witnesses here, but honestly, what the hell? I was like, eight years old. I wanted sugar, and this guy gives me instead a tiny paper pamphlet describing in intimate, almost loving, detail how doomed I am if I don't convert to his religion. Worst house ever. >:/

I got a shoe in my treat bags,

I see what you did there.

Plastic baseball that was supposed to have candy in it but we couldn't get that bugger open so we ended up hitting it with a hammer until it opened.... then it had pretzels! in it! (i hate pretzels)

Almost forgot, i am going to dress up as scream, in a suit(all i could think of)
