We normally get about 250 trick-or-treaters. I usually like to prepare something special for the first 25 kids. This year I prepared special bags for the first 20 kids. I also prepared 111 bundles this year. I took industrial size coffee filters, stamped on them with Halloween stamps, added a few pieces of candy and tied with Halloween ribbon. I first found out about this craft here. I was going to make it years ago but I did not realize I needed the large coffee filters and I gave up on the craft because my small candy would not fit. This year I was determined to try again and found the extra large coffee filters. It took a long time to make 111 bundles but it was sort of fun. My Mom helped me with the craft.
I am prepared with enough supplies for 300 this year. I leave for last items we would want to eat. It is a warm day but windy so I am interested to see how many kids we will get tonight.

Special Treat Bags
It is entirely possible that my trick-or-treaters will not think that this bag of treats is anything special but it is what I decided to give this year. In the past I have made special containers such as these felt bags.
Update
We received 251 kids. The coffee filter bundles were very well received!

We haven’t anywhere near that many kids and here it is ,Nov.1st and we have Trick-or-Treaters.Storms made the powers-that-be postpone the kids going out until tonight, but since it’s Friday, all the better,I am catching up on my posts while I hand out my bags and some for the neighbor. I love your stamped “bags”.
