lol...same here. I stopped when I was 13 but came back for an encore at 17 when my friends and me all dressed up as one of the members of the Spice Girls. This was in 1998 of course.

I stopped trick-or-treating when I was 10. It just wasn't worth the trouble. I was allowed to trick-or-treat from the time I got home from Catholic school and got into costume, until the time my parents took me home to change into church clothes for the All Saints' Day vigil Mass. The church offered two vigil Masses, at 5:15 and 7:15, and my parents forced me to go with them to the 5:15 Mass. (Most parents let their kids go out and then took them to 7:15 Mass.) This left me, hmmm... half an hour of trick-or-treating time, all of it during broad daylight. It just wasn't fun.

</bitter rant>

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. . .

.... or maybe just turning tricks? I don't get why girls always want to dress like whores for Halloween. You can look cute without putting it all out there.

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.

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).
