I have done almost nothing this year and spending my $$$ on candy as 500 kids is the norm in my neighborhood. Candy isn't cheap even when purchased at Costco and Sam's Club. So far I have 7 tubs of pretzels, 5 dozen Halloween pencils, 5 dozen erasers and 12 dozen stickers, Charlie Brown rocks, and 4 bags of Sam's Club bags of candy - I go by "piece" count on the candy bags since I get so many kids. I need another 4 bags of candy at least, will have to see what is left at as they are often sold out by now.

Whoo o, that is a lot. I buy candy at our discount store. Bagged so many per bag. Never thought of buying other things but did thing of inserting a small toy in each bag, which I have from another project and got a toy motorcycle guy at our swap shop so that is a source too. I think I spend about $30. There must be a lot of houses in your area. Pop of my town is only 9K
I have a mailbox /post on the road. Put a fake pumpkin at the bottom as a planter for a mum. I cut the pumpkin so it sits around 3 sides of the post. Then a cornstalk with a garland of fall leaves thru it is against the back of the post. Since we get mostly tiny kids we cut back on the scary decorations. This year we have a skeleton wearing Mickey Mouse ears, walking a skeleton dog who's tag reads "Pluto. If found, please return to Mickey Mouse ". Second skeleton wearing blinking pumpkin antennae will be holding a lantern and sitting at a table with us. (We sit outside since our porch is small and the storm door swings outward.) Some flashing eyes in our bushes. Other subtle decorations include a metal Jack o lantern stake in a garden bed, a square metal Jack o lantern with an outdoor candle in it on our porch. And a "boo " sign in the bay window.
Here are some I've made if you'd like to look. Some are very simple! the ones made with Cricut could also be done with a marker. Some douvle as treats, too.
