I've never been trick or treating. Have you?

I really want to go to America for two weeks- first week for cheerleading, second week for trick or treating.

So has anyone ever been? is it fun? ;D I'm 15...and I feel like I've missed out :P Tho I don't really know anyone to go trick or treating with & i dont exactly live in a city where loads of stuff goes on.

do people actually give you sweets? ..i never have any sweets to give!!

Yeah, I went trick or treating as a kid (around 7-11'ish) with all the kids on the street. It all depends on the neighbourhood though I think. Like mine at that age was a really friendly one, all the people in the houses would 'happily' open the doors for some sweets to give us; as we didn't have a bunch of 17 year old chavs walking about with eggs, saying trick or treat whilst wielding a knife as their costume. It should be fine though, you get a lot of sweets lol, though I would suggest not eating the ones that are homemade or weird looking, only eat the branded ones in wrappers. I remember this flapjack my mate once ate, and when their parent saw it they understood why the kid had diarrhoea for a few days :tongue:

No, but I do get fed up when they flour the driveway.

Wallpaper paste dropped from above seems to do the trick. They will not get that **** out, I assure you. Especially if you chase it will a little treacle and then put an onion in it to soak. Stink the little bastards to sodomy.

I did a similar thing - it's known as guising up here in Jockland. We'd go around the houses of the street, and be expected to tell a joke, sing a song or something equally **** in exchange for sweets, money and the much-hated fruit.

It was only in a small area in a village, and of course the parents all knew each other. I think it was as much an opportunity for them to have a chat as it was for us to get free grub.

I just buy my own sweets now.

I did but it was in Pakistan.

I said 'trick or treat' and they replied 'sorry we have run out of goats'

No. I always wanted to as I child as well.

I remember when I was small that we used to give change to children when they trick or treat as I was told they used the money to save up for bonfire night? Anyone can confirm or deny this?

I went last year for the first time ever, just a bit of fun and we weren't doing it properly. Was going so well until we accidentally ended up ringing my history teacher's door :emo:

Nope, never. Mainly because the estate i used to live on was probably one of the roughest estates in the South of England, and you'd most likely get mugged for your outfit & sweets straight after you got them/walked out the door. :o:
