Why do some people give out full-sized candy bars for Halloween?

[Anonymous]

The gigantic box of them were on sale at Costco.

Because we asked our nanny to order Halloween candy and he got a case of full sized bars. It didn't occur to me to say "Why did you get that?!" but just to say "Thank you - one less thing I have to do."

Because they want to?
Because they like seeing kids' faces light up with joy?
Because they are trying to annoy people like you?

Why would you care what someone else does with their money? If you don't want your kids to have it, take it away. Otherwise this is a total MYOB.

It's always been a rarity, so no one expects it.

OP here. That’s the only reply so far that makes sense. Thank you.

Why are some people myopic misers who hate fun and everyone in the neighborhood dislikes?

I know you can answer that one from personal experience, OP.

I love everything about this sentence.

Full sized candy bars are the Holy Grail of trick-or-treating. Why not make a kid's evening, if you have the means?

So do you really think that people who give out fun-sized are misers? Do you think full-sized should be the norm unless you’re cheap?

Because they want to and they can.

[Anonymous]

Because they are awesome, OP. Unlike you.

Just turn your light off and go.

DP, but I don't think giving out fun size bars makes you a miser. I think going on online to whine about the fact that other people give out full size does make you a miser.

Is that what you think, OP? Is that why you're so triggered by your neighbors being kind and generous and giving out candy to children? Does it make you feel like the stingy cheapo you are?

Because it's fun and I feel generous doing it. And Costco usually has them on sale around Halloween.

But the small ones are literally called fun size?
