    How do you all count the TOT's that come to your house. Do you precount the candy? I can only do a guess cause we got into the candy before Halloween lol!

    I took count on paper this year just to see. We got around 650 kids and it was a lot of fun!

    We count the candy beforehand (most bags have the number printed on them for an easy count).

    Total pieces of candy - leftover pieces - wrappers from what my husband eats = total number of trick-or-treaters!

    We just kept adding to a tally on a piece of paper. Every time we had some at the door we'd quietly keep track and then run to the kitchen and add a few marks to the list.

    Of course, something like that would be silly if we lived in a subdivision that pulled in hundreds.

    Thanks for the tips! I see UnOrthodOx the counter would work also lol! Next year I will count the candy ahead of time so I don't over buy which we tend to eat.
