Why are people so cheap with candy these days? 🍬🍭

Do people not give out king size bars anymore? We drove out to this rich neighborhood pacifically because of a rumor that they’re giving out king size bars. And no king size to be find. All the cheap asses were just giving out fun size! My friend posted on Instagram that he scored king size in another neighborhood so we hightailed it there and I only managed to get a full size Kit Kat and two Starbursts, not even king size. WTF? Why are Hilltoppers so cheap AF? This is my haul this year. Pathetic, isn’t it? What’s the point of trick or treating if not for the king size? 😡

You are too old to be trick or treating.

We're in a recession.

No one to talk to in real life, OP? SAD, isn't it?

I always give out full size candy bars. They are making the “fun size” so small theses days you can’t properly hide a razor blade in one.

Pacifically?

by Anonymousreply 8November 2, 2020 2:43 AM

Uh you can always buy your own adult size bars, OP.

I had an agent who routinely said "pacifically" instead of "specifically". Oy, vey. No.

Even though I'm a no name actor, I decided right there to get ANY other agent. I can't have people like this repping me!

You know who is the cheapest of all cheap cheapsters? People who give out something other than chocolate! Keep your Sweet Tarts to yourself, you cheapies!

R11, my favorites are Skittles and Sour Patch kids. Keep your waxy Hershey’s.

Or Necco wafers. Yuk! 😝 Keep your chalk to yourself!

R1 In fairness, the youngest Gen Zer is 8 years old, so not that old. However, anyone that age shouldn't be posting on the DL.

I really don't approve of 10 year old kids posting on Datalounge, OP should have been aborted.

Beggars can’t be choosers. If you want a king size, pay for one.

"Dum Dums, Smarties, and Jolly Ranchers maybe suitable for Ontario, Fontana, and even Montclair... but NOT here in Rancho Cucamonga!"

WE 👏 ARE 👏 AN 👏 AFFLUENT 👏 NEIGHBORHOOD 👏 AND 👏 OUR 👏 HALLOWEEN 👏 CANDY 👏 SHOULD 👏 REFLECT 👏 THAT 👏

Over the last three Halloweens, I’ve noticed candy stock has become more and more diluted with cheap candy. I don’t know if this trend is the result of the higher bills or even the new constructions, but cheap candy has somehow infiltrated our community for Halloween and it has to stop.

Standard full or KING size candy is the bar (pun intended) we set for our community on Halloween. If you purchased the fun size, you don’t need to return them. Just keep in mind that 4-6 of those fun size bars equate to a standard size bar when you doll out that candy to trick or treaters.

And please, for God’s sake, leave those Peep candies alone. No one, and I mean NO ONE, wants those terrible marshmallow tragedies.

That's a pretty solid burn to the peeps who make Peeps. The post also bashes "the elderly" for "peddling" pennies and recommends they stop, or else step it up with quarters.

After calling out the penny-peddling elderly, a Facebook account holder named Tanya Wilkerson continues with more over-the-top demands, like suggesting dark chocolate be kept "out of circulation" and warned citizens they'd be watched while trick-or-treaters visited their homes.

"Let it be known that this year, there are several of us parents patrolling and monitoring the candy distribution of houses in our neighborhood," the lengthier diatribe reads. "We will be carrying around small cans of spray paint and marking the sidewalks in front of your house with a red dot in hopes of preventing others from experiencing the same ill fate and time wasted."

I gave out at least 6 bags of good candy on Halloween and was pretty much wiped out at 8:30 p.m. Lots of kids coming out for candy this year on a good Saturday night.

Even a big bag of real Halloween candy kisses which are getting harder to find.

Does your mommy know you are hanging out on Datalounge?

I live in one of those AFFLUENT neighborhoods in Los Angeles. We stop handing out candy about 5 years ago after over 20 years of handing out. 2,000 kids showed up every year for the last 10 -12 years. Entire families {adults} would t or t . 95% of the t or t didn't live in my area. It became beyond obnoxious. They were rude, loud and entitled. They threw trash everywhere including beer and liquor bottle. They takes pisses and threw out dirty diapers in the street. After a few years of that I said fuck it! No more. Thankfully many of my neighbors also stopped. We now have maybe 800-1,000 show up. Last night covid killed it. Thank god!

That bitch from Rancho Cucamonga is delusional -- about the halloween candy and her neighborhood.

by Anonymousreply 22November 2, 2020 3:40 AM

R22 I’m laughing hard at the notion that she considers Cucamonga affluent. Sure, Jan, you just keep livin’ the KB home dream.
