When I was in my late 20's I lived in a blue collar neighborhood that was about 5 miles from "the HOOD" My house was 6 doors down from a park that would have a halloween shindig every year.
We would give out around 13 pounds of candy, 1/2 a box of dog biscuits and a tray of icecubes every year.
The LARGEST bowl that I gave candy out of was loaded in this fashion. Dog treats on the bottom. GOOD candy for the neighbors kids next. fun size candy bars on top of that and NASTY cheap candy on top of everything. The front door would be used to block the veiw of the bowl of ice cubes.
If a neighbor kid came up you would just palm down to the good stuff. If there was a person tricker treating with their dog while junior ran up to the door I would give them a candy + a dog treat handed to them
If a kid who would look at the load on top and say "ain't you got no snickers!" I would palm a dog biscuit reach into their bag so that they couldn't see me dropping the dog biscuit into their bab. NOW! Wait for it why a tray of ice cubes? Well it was only used a few times but if the kid was a brat with out manners and was using a paper bag for his trick or treat bag....... He would get an ice cube! The bag would burst in 1/2 a block
