I have ALWAYS given out the little chocolate bars (assorted of course). I remember as a kid, my brother, sister and I would come home from trick or treating and dumping out our bags on the table. We would then separate our goodies into piles
1-chocolate goodness
2-gum/lollipops
3-the stuff we didn't want (this always got thrown out)
I figured I would spend a bit extra for the little chocolate bars and give those out. I think every kid is excited to see them in their pile of candy and I also know they won't be in the pile of stuff getting thrown out (I figure if the kids don't like that particular brand, the parents would eat it)
This year we had.....butterfinger, crunch, take 5, recee cups, m&m's, whoppers, hersheys, kit kats, baby ruth, etc
