Did you (adults) dress up for Halloween or Trick-or-Treating last night?

Nov 1, 2012 8:42 AM

I was surprised by the number of adults that did dress up in costumes last night. I visited by a couple comic book heroes, ghost, and wizards. Several spent the big bucks and went all out. I did not dress up.

I love Halloween and am all for it. Have fun. Just please do not ask for, or even take offered, candy.

Yup. I usually do. I was Hermione from Harry Potter for the 2nd year in a row (easy costume, my kids have all the parts and then I have my clothes).

This time I was walking around downtown Salem after my ex took over the ToT duties, so it was important to be in costume!

I had no choice. I was making/serving cotton candy at our Church fall festival, and HAD to wear a tyvek painter's coveralls. My wife decorated it with a MHI logo (Monster Hunter International). The pink & blue sugar stains were quite interesting at the end of the night.

Nope. Since my daughter reached an age where she doesn't care about Halloween anymore, I stopped dressing up. Now, it's just a night where I try to keep my dog from barking as kids come looking for candy.

I'd happily dress up for a party or function, but I don't dress up (anymore) to hand out candy, and we don't trick-or-treat anymore.

I safety-pinned a dozen or so of the glow-sticks that were wooted a couple weeks back to a baseball cap, and if anyone asked, I was "A little light-headed."

(I was escorting my 6- and 8-yo boys...)

No we didn't. Our last child is too old for it so we did nothing.

I saw a good number of parents dressed up to escort their kids - it was cute. We didn't dress up - it was chilly. But I did have on my jack-o-lantern gloves and Patricspens hoodie of creepiness.

My boyfriend and I dressed up as Mario and Princess Peach for work and candy handing outing.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
