What type of treats and what did you do on Halloween when you were a kid?

I remember all the homemade goodies. You could go all over the entire town if you wanted and not have to worry about someone trying to do something to you or give you dangerous treats. My brother and I knew that our mother wouldn't let us go out again, so we'd hide in the bushes by our house and exchange costumes then go out and hit the houses we knew were giving out the good stuff. Luckily I was a tomboy so I didn't go into girl costumes, don't think my brother would like to have been caught in a tutu.
