Halloween Bags - Sprees, Whoppers...

[kristyjab]

I am doing the candy bag (Whoppers, Smarties, Sprees & Suckers) with the little Halloween flyer w the candy saying, my contact info, an offer for a cooking show and November's specials, etc.

I am giving these to my son's daycare & to the guests at my shows on the 18th & 24th. Does anyone think it is a tacky idea to pass these out to the trick-r-treaters? I am sure the parents check the candy before they pass it onto their children. I found some small bags at Wal Mart today (40 for $1) so this isn't really expensive. I just moved into my neighborhood and I have always lived in the "country" where every kid that came by was family. I also live in a neighborhood where you can not advertise, run a business, solicit, homeowners assoc. But I assume since I am giving candy it isn't soliciting...

Any opinions appreciated!

Someone suggested on another thread of actually taking the bags and passing them door to door to your neighbors. It will give you a chance to meet people face to face. I think its a great idea because what better day than Halloween to be able to go out ring the doorbell and actually have people answer.
