    Man, I printed little kaiju figurines, bought blind bags, filled them with candy and toys. And it freaking rained, got like 8 kids

      As a parent I appreciate you for doing this fwiw.

      It is awesome to see people in the community being nice and selfless like this.

      Hopefully you’ll find a use for the extra stuff, or have it for next year!

        I grew up pretty poor. Halloween was the best holiday. I like to go a bit extra now that I can- thanks for the appreciation :D

          Yeah, I also grew up poor, and now I’m the cool house that gives out full-sized candy bars. Even in this economy, and after having a bad year financially, I refuse to compromise on Halloween. I always strive to be the house that kid-me would have wanted to tell his friends about.
