The trading positioning starts well in advance of the counting of the take. Three Costums at least, scoping out the good places with rare and hard to find candy, spreading misleading information to other kids like such and such a house is dangerous, only in New York people that give money rather than candy, finding some fool who will eat marshmallow candy,and finally the trading. coming from a large family I had a retained stash and a trading stash. Baseball cards with bubble gum where highly prized and easily traded. Apples, and other types of fruit where thrown in the trash bin. At the tender age of 13 I found girls is tight costums (tigers are my favorite) more interesting than candy or maybe I found a new candy?
