how old were you when you stopped trick-or-treating? - Page 2

I think I was 20. I think I was a hippie and BF was Spider Man. Honestly, why should I pass up the best holiday ever created b/c of an age? I would have gone when I was 21, but that's when I started going to parties or events instead. I'd probably go this year, but I'll be out of town. My neighbor (my age) usually came with me too.

When we were at West Point, the cadets drove around the post in open-backed transport vehicles and tossed candy to the military kids who were out trick-or-treating in the neighborhoods.

Oh idk when I stopped.... My street gets a lot of families driving in from the city (the street behind me is known for a few houses that give out king size candy bars) so eventually i stopped going out and started handing out. . . To kids their parents and the parents 2month old who was at home and also needed to candy. . . It gets a bit crazy but its fun to watch we tend to go through over 1,000 pieces of candy in about 2 1/2 hours. . .

I was maybe 11 or 12. I remember 4th and 5th grade we were pretty much hooligans who wanted candy. And then that got old.

Also, NO ONE comes to my building for Halloween. So, I never get to see what the cool costumes are.

I wish I could go again, it seems like that was the one time of year I was guarteed to see everyone from the neighborhood, or at least very many of them.

I think i was 13 then made a repeat at 17 for what my group of friends called "our last time as kids". Now we all just buy our favorite bag of candy and pig out

You mean you are supposed to stop at some point?!

I stopped at 18. Trick or treating in the dorms is fun.

I went for my last round when I was 11. I don't remember what I was...I think I was some sort of princess (yeah, I know....a little childish for a kid in Grade 6).
