2012 Halloween kid count?

[phreezee]

Just shut down the fog machine, final count was 39 kids! Pretty good considering the cold weather.

[spikerS]

man, i am probably right around the 200 mark, I lost count so that number may be off by about 20ish.

[Unknown303]

Maybe 35 at my place. I really don't consider this cold though. growing up in Jasper I've trick or treated many brutal cold nights.

[Kolbatron]

wow 200?! Haven't had a haul like that since I was the kid actually doing the trick-or-treat'ing.

Tonight I would say we had roughly 30 kids.

[ExtraSlow]

I was expecting about ten based on the last two years, but we're over thirty now.

[EM1FTW]

i got ONE!
that kid got so much candy though hahaha

[barmanjay]

Only 6,... So for the next 60 days I get a bag of candy each day....

[tch7]

5 or 6... pretty typical.
Hardly any young families live around here any more.

We even had to give away our stash of the good stuff:(

[Tik-Tok]

Zero

I was in the basement playing video games/working out, and the Mrs. forgot to turn on the outside light, lol. Was wondering why I didn't hear the door bell.

Same here, guess there aren't many kids in my area.

[shakalaka]

None. Being on the 13th floor of a high rise with access to only the occupants in possession of scan cards helps. :D

[Kritafo]

we had maybe 30 kids. Husband was giving out massive handfuls kids were all ooooo'ing and ohhhh'ing.

[AE92_TreunoSC]

70+ Coventry young community... I bought tons of candy and I'm out!

[spacerz]

96.
Edit: I live in Monterey Park, N.E.

[ZEDGE]

Last year I ran out of candy.. this year maybe 10 so far. Stupid weather.

[ianmcc]

Minimum 120. I bought 3 boxes of the Costco 120 count chocolate bars and at two per kid (minus the house cut!) I am deep into the third box.

[sh0ko]

0... wtf am i going to do with all this candy

[charlie2]

25 give or take a few in Kincora....about the same as the previous years. Shut down at 8.

[got_mike33]

What is all this talk about cold weather? It's maybe -5, I remember when I was a kid (only 15 years ago) we'd go out in -15, with snow.

Only 12 kids at our place this year, it's real pitiful.

[95EG6P]

80+ ran out of candy had to run to the store for mor candy

[benyl]

11

[tobypaddock]

bought 48 big chocolate bars, ate one and had to hand out a box of granola bars after running out of chocolate in a little over an hour - last year I had MAYBE 15 kids, pretty surprised i had over 50 tonight

[EG6boi]

No kids in my block either. It was dead! More candy for me lol

[SpeedIllusion]

29 tonight

[botox]

It was crazy tonight, previous years was 20-25. Today was at least 70. We had a box of 58 chips and 120 chocolates and gave each kid 1 chip and chocolate ran out.

[Masked Bandit]

We only had about 85, less than half of previous years

[asp integra]

18 so far, im in Strathcona

[a social dsease]

To those getting 100+ kids, what part of the city are you in? Just curious...

[Marsh]

[b16Ateg]

we got 21 kids.. and i bought a shit load since we have a bunch of kids living around us... guess i was wrong..

[drtoohotty1]

in Coventry, around the corner from the elementary school.

But then again, I had 3 inflatables on my lawn, one being 12 feet tall and illuminated, and with it being cold tonight, the halloween music I had blaring outside was travelling pretty far, I think it acted as a beacon.

[Markll7]

4... A record number lol

Girlfriend's store had over 2000+ this year

[turbotrip]

a whopping 6 groups. i think coventry/panorama area would probably be packed with kids

[GQBalla]

26 kids. Scenic Acres

[NoMoreG35]

0 kid for 10 years and counting :D

[swak]

zero.

First year in an apartment.... That pretty normative for you apt folk?
seems like itd be an easy WIN for a kid - heated halloween run :bigpimp:

[shakalaka]

^Haha me too.

However, my apartment building's idea of security is that you can only go to the floor you live on. Your key fobs, one scanned will only take you to your floor, main floor and parking. So, I kinda knew I wouldn't be expecting any at my door. lol

[s2k_boi]

^ x2. 0 kids. Apt living... Didn't even have to buy candy!

[EK 2.0]

By the end of the night...4 kids...

And I was generous to the last 2 that came up to the door haha...even hooked up their parents with handfuls...

But now...just means more chocolate for this cocoa allergic e-mack haha...:drool:

[urrforce]

by the time it stopped we got about 40 or so kids at our place panorama been noticing less and less kids out there but after reading this thread numbers seem to be good elsewhere maybe the kids along my streets are just growing up lol


and really ek? allergic to cocoa? thats shitty!

I'll have diabetes by the end of the month!

[sputnik]

125-150 in Winnipeg.

Helps that we don't have any snow on the ground and the evening was around +4C and almost no wind outside.

[DENZILDON]

About 40 to 50 in Copperfield.

[j.garner]

35-40 Kids in Copperfield.

[The_1]

had about 8-10 kids in Panorama Hills
I was expecting a lot more

[sillysod]

Elgin, can't say forsure but looked like a low turn out.

We left a big bowl of candy on the front steps and took Sillysod Jr. out to raid the neighbourhood. Got a pillowcase worth.

[Sugarphreak]

...

[FullFledgedYYC]

I bet 89coupe never let his little snowflake trick or treat without his supervision. 30ish.

[Tomaz]

Final count: Zero

Sadly, we haven't had kids out at the farm for over a decade. :(

We're in Chaparral, loaded with young families. Damn near every house on the street has little kids. That's why I was so surprised with ~85ish as previous years (including 2011) we had in the range of 200.

[403Gemini]

~50 , happy enough with the turnout, still miss from when I was a kid and the streets were packed cause kid's weren't pussies. I remember designing costumes to fit over top of my winter jacket , now kids to go the mall, dafuq is that?!

[Moonracer]

2 in crescent heights not much for kids here

[Mitsu3000gt]

When I lived in Woodbine, we would get 275-300 trick or treaters. This year my parents saw only 10.

I live in a Condo building though so I got zero haha.

Also it was kind of shitty out, so many probably didn't bother.

When I was younger I used to go to town house complexes to maximize my candy in the shortest time haha.

My friends in Auburn Bay had hardly any either, and there are TONS of kids and young families there. Must have been the weather.

Love the costume bud! :thumbsup:

[freshprince1]

We easily had 100+. South end of Okotoks. Really good turnout considering the cold. My little stinkers each got apillowcase full too. It was a great Halloween.

[SilverGS]

75 in Signall Hill

[Tearin]

92 in Braeside at my parents' house. I hand out candy at my parents' house as no one will come to an acreage.

[codetrap]

I took Minion out T'oT'n, and she nailed so much candy I had to carry her bag for her. I think it was pretty much net neutral based on what my wife handed out, and what she brought in. Based on the amount of kids roaming around, I'd say we broke 100 easy.

Our little Winged Barney-Dragon-Unicorn-Pony..

[clem24]

Almost no kids here in Tuscany. After 7, my wife just left the bowl on the porch. By 7:30, it was empty. Judging by how many kids actually rang the doorbell, I have a sneaking suspicion the last kid must've emptied the whole thing into their bag LOL.

[g-m]

35~ in cougar ridge

[Xtrema]

25 in Hamptons.
