Guest guest Posted October 27, 2004 Report Share Posted October 27, 2004 BlankI hate Halloween LOL ! All that candy is an assault on my senses and my common sense.So here's what I do to cope. 1. I don't buy candy for Trick or Treaters. Chocolate can be really dangerous for me so I get some rolls of nickles from the bank and give each child 4 or 5 nickles. The kids love it and I don't have to deal with the temptation. It's also cheaper than candy. 2. If you feel that you have to give out candy have someone else hand it out. 3. I stock up on my favorite WW frozen desserts and other favorite snacks and make sure that I have something CHOCOLATE planned LOL ! 4. If you decide that are going to eat SOME candy and you're sure you can handle it make sure you have a plan. Don't leave it to chance because that is setting yourself up for possible disaster. Buy yourself one candy bar that is lower in points like 3 Muskateers and dont' touch anything else I like Dove Dark Promises. One piece is one point. 5. If all else fails you can always turn out the lights and go out or go to bed early ! I'd love to hear all of your ideas too : ) Ginny 260-186-129 Goal for 2004 380 Pages Completed 476 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Dad use to write months in advance to the various toothpaste companies and for Halloween my mother would give out candy and my Dad would give out Toothpaste samples! This was done is some movie I saw a few yrs back and just cracked me up thinking my Dad way way ahead of 'em! Anyway, that's how they dealt with Halloween!
