Trick or Treat Gifts Instead of Candy

RE: Trick or Treat Gifts Instead of Candy By hibbardg (32) Profile Contact I have tried over the years to collect small toy and school items after other holidays when they are 75% to 90% off, mostly at dollar general and family dollar. Walmart isn't so good with their sales anymore. Anyway they last for years because they aren't food.

Fun Halloween versions of pretzels, animal crackers, pencils, straws, microwave popcorn and even cheetos! There is plenty of good things to give besides candy!

Also, some friends of mine give out Shasta orange soda pop just to be different.

I made popcorn balls and oatmeal cookies for them. For baby, a jar of baby fruit/veggie/canned fruit as baby was too young for candy. The parents loved the special treat.

Maybe you could come up with another alternative, depending on what's available in your area. I remember it being a great TREAT as a kid when a local man who worked for Pepsi handed out a can drink to each of his Trick or Treaters! Helped wash down all those good munchies!

(www.orientaltrading.com) They are very cheap. 72 tattoos for under $5 and 100 stickers on a roll were under $3. We have also given out freezer pops in the tubes. I'm not sure what they're called but very cheap and the kids loved them. Freeze them and pull them apart before you start, if you're in a hurry and try to pull them apart when thawed you can make a heck of a mess. We also clear out the Happy Meal toys collected throughout the year that were duplicated or 'for boys'.

Contact One year I handed out a combination of little trinkets I had around the house - pencils, keychains, charms and so on. Plus pennies. It was a good way of emptying the junk drawer.

Posted on 10/18/2007 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Trick or Treat Gifts Instead of Candy By Debbie (Guest Post) All of the above sound great. Although I don't do Halloween anymore, in the past I have given out pencils, stickers, etc. Another idea is to give out coupons that alot of the fast food restaurants sell now. You can buy a book for about $5.00 and items vary. It could be a pack of fries, a small ice cream, etc. depending on what place you purchase the book from. I think this helps parents out that don't like to see the kids getting alot of candy, and it gives the kids something to look forward to.
