I have been dipping into the tootsie rolls in our Halloween candy stash! I feel like I need to buy ahead of time so I will have it on hand but then I keep "sampling" it! How do you deal with having so much candy on hand?

Sadly, our neighborhood has never gotten many trick or treaters. So any Halloween candy I buy is for me. lol (Not sure that solves your problems though.)

Ha!Ha! I know it is a dilemma! You want to have candy in case someone shows up but they may or may not come. I should try to buy candy I don't like but they keep putting the bags with tootsie rolls on sale! :)

Bags of tootsie rolls would be a huge problem for me because I love them. (Okay, this applies to most Halloween candy. lol)

We don't have any Halloween candy to dip into. I don't eat candy, but dh does, and he always has a candy stash. We have no neighbors for miles, so no trick or treater's.

I am lucky that we only get a handful of Trick or Treaters, three bags of candy is usually all I need. I don't dip into them myself but I sure as heck don't trust the rest of the family. #angry2
I put the candy bags in a plastic bag and tie it closed so they get the hint. LOL

I bet it's beautiful where you live! We lived out in the country years ago.

That's a great idea to tie the bags up!

I may or may not have just bought another bag of candy because the one I bought last week is gone... :rolleyes:

We don't get any kids here but that doesn't stop hubby from buying the boxes of chocolate bars. We have gone through 2 boxes already and I sure don't need it but when it is in the house my hand strays toward the bowl. must be a ghost leading me. ha ha

I have 3 bags of chocolate bars and they are stored in the garage, out of sight. So far we have resisted temptation.
I don't think I could buy chocolate and not eat it! I am so proud of you, Rae! Today I bagged up the candy into small bags. That way they are all ready to hand out tomorrow and out of my way! :)

Exactly! Those are my sentiments! My feet keep leading me to the closet the candy is stored in! Today I put the candy in individual bags so it will be easier to resist now. But, chocolate! That would be VERY hard to resist! Yum!
