What is the WORST Halloween item you ever received ( as a kid) while trick or treating...

A toothbrush. LOL.

Toothbrush from the Dentist next door. Useful and a great reminder but...a dud at 7.

I think it was one of those stupid finger traps and I nor my mom could get it off, and had to be cut off. I sobbed hysterically.

Packet of Fisherman's Friend

A pencil that said "Jesus is my friend everyday"

Later, I was running with that pencil in my pocket (bad move on my part), it fell out, I stepped on it, it went into my foot and I had to have surgery.

My brother gave out Horse Carrots one year.

I had a massive bag of candy when I was 12 and some older punk kids drove by on their bikes and one of them snatched my bag.

My uncle was a cop and he went and found them and took like six bags that they had stolen that night and he gave them to us. We ate it all and we puked.

That had nothing to do with the title, but this tread made me think of that for the first time in twenty years, lol.

HA Ha Ha!!!!

When I was about 9, we used pillow cases to trick or treat. This particular year we had tons of candy. When I got home, I realized my pillow case had a hole in it. I had only a few pieces of candy left. AGH!!!!! My brother wouldn't share his either. it was my worst year. LOL!!

Well, it left an impression. HA!

An older lady down the road from us use to bake sweet potatoes and wrap them in foil and give them out for treats.
Of course most kids didnt like that back then but looking back I know it was better for us than candy.
She didnt have much money but grew a big garden so that was what she gave out.

I remember that as well. Also, a plastic bag with 10 pennies in it.

WAGON WHEELS

SHITTIEST TREAT EVER!!!

Right, that was 26 years ago and I will never forget that Jesus is my friend everyday.

My dentist neighbour used to give us a toothbrush, and a whole can of pop/or full chocolate bar. Might not sound too extravagant but 15 years ago only the rich could afford to give out full size fucking chocolate bars! lol

Peppermint hard candies.

Damn, that is still rare these days. We have a dad in the neighborhood that gives all us other dads a beef jerky or a beer, whichever you prefer.

Wedgy

I think the worst candies were bit o' honeys, smarties, and those god darn popcorn balls.

Individually wrapped Hall's "metholyptus" cough drops

A homemade popcorn ball in the shape of hands. Gave it to the bushes. Who eats these balls anyways??? Kids would peg them at each other in the streets.

My kid received a sugar free hot cocoa packet and a tiny Bible.

An apple.

HA! That was perfect with the look from your Avatar! HA!

Ha Ha Ha...you have to wonder what these people are thinking? Back in the day they would have been egged.

...of course, we NEVER egged anyone's home....ever.

My house was egged one year when we ran out of candy. UGH!

The regulation of amount of candy I was allowed to consume, by my parents, when I came home. In hindsight, I was done a great favor.

A plastic spoon.

I shit you not.

A beer bottle cap with a puzzle on it. Mickey's?

A kiss. Old whiskey breath bitch in the neighborhood bent down and kissed my cheek one year said she was "giving out sugar this Halloween". I must of stood on the porch waiting on my candy a full five minutes before my dad quit laughing and said, "c'mon".

My son got that tonight, and a SMALL tube of paste.
