Should I hand out kiwi, roofing nails, or Q-tips for Halloween?
Edited on Tue Oct-24-06 05:30 PM by Rabrrrrrr
I'm in a quandary.

Though I'm still also tempted by giving out cups of milk, just pouring them into the bags.

Grit filled condoms could be the next Hacky-Sack.
Millions of kids kicking them around on school playgrounds?

44. One year we ran out of candy so my husband gave a choice of
golf balls (his dad found them while playing golf) or walnuts (our neighbor has a tree and gives us a bag of 'em)
How about ice cubes, maybe wrapped in foil to look like large chocolate kisses.

46. How about bowling balls covered with a nice layer of caramel?
Drop one of those caramel covered beauties in their bag and watch their eyes light up!

Or my all time favorite, fresh hot pennies straight from the deep fryer! Now that's Halloween! Boy Howdy!
