yes costume (real effort) is a must but it beats them being pressed at a party for risky behavior -- nm - SyrDragon Oct 11, 11:25 1
- teens who knock without a costume get candy corn -- nm - zeitgeist Oct 11, 23:24

When they get too embarrassed to still want to -- nm - Jovian Oct 11, 09:53 2
- This. Probably around age 11 or 12. Then they'll go back to trick-or-treating at age 16 or 17 because it's "ironic." - ReluctantCynic Oct 11, 10:10 1
  - Don't you think? -- nm - Strongbad Oct 11, 10:15

- I'll agree with this -- nm - crash davis Oct 11, 09:53

- What you're doing isn't technically trick-or-treating. - Cuzzin Todd Oct 11, 09:53 3
  - so my Beetlejuice and the sand worm costume is a no go? -- nm - groiny Oct 11, 09:55 2
    - I'd say "Depends what you mean by 'sand worm'" but I think we all know what you mean. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Oct 11, 10:05 1
      - The important part is that he remembers to hand the court-mandated notification to each neighbor. -- nm - Ender Oct 11, 10:09
When they feel like it. -- nm - Ender Oct 11, 09:47 7
- More precisely, when they no longer want to wear a costume. If an 80-year-old shows up at my door I'll give them candy as long as they're in costume. -- nm - Ender Oct 11, 09:49 6
  - What are you giving out? -- nm - crash davis Oct 11, 09:54 4
    - "...and a bottle of Centrum Silver for you, sir..." -- nm - Max Oct 11, 09:59 1
      - I was hoping for a bottle of high protein chocolate Ensure -- nm - crash davis Oct 11, 10:01
    - Generally Reese's Cups, Skittles, Snickers (Fun size) and whatever other brands come in the multi-packs with those. - Ender Oct 11, 09:57 1
      - hmm, on the food groups I might have to add caramel (but that comes in Snickers) -- nm - crash davis Oct 11, 10:00
  - This is the right answer. Wear a costume? Cool. Show up with a pillow case in normal clothes? Just go to Walmart and buy a box. -- nm - Shaun Oct 11, 09:53
2. 13-15 -- nm - Beaker Oct 11, 09:47
