  Okay. Or…my kids are walking around with a gaggle of neighbors and we are all socializing. And then we have to go “that one guys house” where we sit and watch as he wastes 10 minutes while we’re 2 miles deep into a neighborhood. And kids have finite energy.

    Ohhhh nOOO ten minutes???

    Just drop your poor kid off with one of his friends and stay home yourself, you sound like you ruin everyone’s good time all the time.

      Nope we had a great time. And they’re 7 and 10. Old enough to not want to bother walking all the way up to a door and waiting.

    But if you don’t get the amount of candy you want in the end (and even with a slow pace my kids have always had more candy than they could ever finish), just buy some more. Who cares about the excess of candy?

      Because it’s the experience my kids want. And they don’t just “go buy more candy” considering their 10 and 7.
