I found out about “Boo-ing” friends and neighbors during the Halloween season before I had kids. We weren’t included because we didn’t yet have children, but I knew this was something I wanted to do eventually, and once my oldest was 3 we started Boo-ing friends and neighbors. Its not about the money spent or how much, but the act in and of itself is sweet, fun and really just kind of silly- but in a nice way. Who doesn’t like free candy?
For this post, I was set to shop at Walmart for Mars Candies- Harvest Mini Snickers, to be exact, but unfortunately, the three times I headed to our local Walmart they didn’t have them, although as you can see from photos they had about 200 options for candy purchasing.

I don’t understand. What is BOOing?
You leave a bag of candy or whatever on a friend or neighbor’s door before Halloween- just for fun.
Oh ok. That sounds fun! Thanks
