EVERY holiday, celebration is the same. But if the kids have fun and look forward to it, big deal. So the candy and costume makers make money. Unfortunately that is the way things are today. Pretty soon, the grocery stores are going to make a fortune selling turkeys, pumpkins, cranberries, etc. So what do we do. Discontinue Thanksgiving? How about Christmas? And the list goes on and on and.........Its not something that I've ever celebrated but we do get 'trick or treat' kids coming round sometimes and as epicuric says elsewhere its rife in the shops and mainly aimed at kids.
