So, mneme and I went to Economy Candy this weekend, and picked up a lot of candy, including a 5 pound bag of his favorites to give away on Halloween. Thing is, we live in an apartment building and don't get a lot of trick-or-treaters. We headed out to ask the management office staff for our complex if there was some sort of procedure, maybe signing up to indicate one is available.
As soon as we were outside, we saw trick-or-treaters, and mneme went back in and got the back of treats. We asked groups, "Are you trick-or-treating?" following up with "We have candy!" This worked well, and we saw another person doing the same, although they stayed in one spot, while we walked.
We eventually decided to eat outside, and confirmed that the restaurant we were ordering from was fine with us giving out candy. We also directed trick-or-treaters inside, as they had candy as well (and we exchanged candies).
We're now back home, sign on our door in case there are late trick-or-treaters. But we've successfully divested ourselves of most of the candy, so I'd call that a success.
