I cheat - I put a pile of sweets on my doorstep and a notice to only take 1 and then ignore the banging on the door. If the sweets have all gone then its tough luck! Mind you there is only one i will give money to and that is because he's a diabetic and so wont give him sweets.

I never went trick or treating either it seems to only have come in over the last 20 years. I made a lantern out of a turnip or a swede whatever my mum got and then stuck it in the window! For the last few years though i've bought a pumpkin for my niece and helped her dig it out and she took it home with her. A pumpkin is easier to dig out than a turnip!
