What’s wrong with pillow cases for trick or treating?

Pillowcases is a low class teenage thing

Nothing wrong with it. My kids have done it and I see kids with pillow cases every year.

Is there any topic DCUM can’t turn into a classist WASP-off?

Hah yeah. "My kid only trick or treats with an organic basket woven from the boughs of branches taken from our apple orchard and assembled by our expert on staff basket weaver".

No, because this place is full of try-hard strivers.

It does answer the question of who buys the ridiculous shit from the Wiiams Sonoma catalog.

But, but...I was just told pillowcases were okay in a "quietly rich" neighborhood!

The only kid I've seen who used one was incredibly greedy. He went out for three hours in rich neighborhood and came home with 3/4 of a pillowcase. His mom let him keep it. He eats it all year.

I see kids using them on every Halloween. We do get a ton of kids from all over the city and surrounding area, so maybe I just see a wider range of kids??

I do think something with handles is more practical but there is something classic about the pillow case.

Nothing.

So you use perfectly good bedding and dirty it by dragging it through the neighborhood?

We discard pillowcases when they have holes, which make using as bags less helpful.

I see older kids with pillowcases (including my own). Seems to be more practical amongst the tween ToT crew as they cover more ground trick-or-treating than the littles, so the pillowcases holds more.

Paper bag over head is even cheaper. Draw a face on it or just eye holes.

This thread is wild, classic DCUM. We live in a very popular trick or treat neighborhood in a “fancy” town. Usually 400-500 come to our house. I’d say well over 50% use pillow cases. My own DS switched around 2nd grade per his request. The only kids I see with cute candy holders are toddlers. I’ve never given it a second thought, wow.
