So time to turn your thoughts to the holiday that officially launches the Christmas season.
You might want to consider what sort of treats you intend to hand out as trick-or-treaters have grown much pickier and judgmental over the years.

So think about that bag of candy before tossing it in the cart: just like in real life not all treats are equal.
And do not even THINK about the old banana/candy corn trick: so NOT funny.
