Today, I bought fifteen bags of candy for the trick-or-treaters. I sat outside with a bowl of candy the whole night. Only one person came. FML

Black Friday
70% off something you didn't need, a stampede and a cart that crashes at checkout. Thanks, Black Friday.
Today, I had to tell all the trick-or-treaters that I'd run out of candy. I'd actually bought about $50 worth of candy, but managed to eat all of it by myself, sitting alone in my apartment, exactly like last year. FML
Today, I dressed up like a pirate, dressed my dog as a parrot and bought $30 worth of candy to pass out to trick-or-treaters. I waited by the door for 3 hours. Not one kid came. FML
Today, after a stressful shift at work, I bought three bags of candy to hand out to trick-or-treaters tonight. I didn’t realize until I got home that one bag had a hole in it, and there were three empty M&M wrappers inside. My grocery store sucks. FML
Today, I asked my girlfriend to get a bunch of candy for our first Halloween at our new house, so she got $60 worth. We got into an argument about who was going to give it out. It’s now 9 p.m. No one came to our door all night. FML
Today, I was handing candy to a little boy who was trick or treating by himself. He was small enough to grab the candy and run past me into my house. I've been searching my house for two hours and still can't find him. I'm afraid to go to sleep. FML
Today, I spent over an hour decorating my house for trick or treaters. I never got one person at my door because I forgot to unlock my gate. FML
Today, I saw what my mom handed out for trick-or-treaters last night. Toothbrushes. Yup, we're that house. FML
Today, I woke up excited to go trick-or-treating, the treat being candy. Instead, my town has officially postponed Halloween due to blackouts. I guess this is where the trick comes in. FML
Today, a kid came Trick-or-Treating at my house. When I told her it was still one more day until Halloween, and that I didn't have any candy, she wound-up her fist, punched me in the groin, and ran off laughing. FML
Today, one of my neighbors dressed up in the exact same costume as me. Every house I go to refuses to give me candy because my neighbor has already been there. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Why didn't you stay inside your home? But, that does suck. And it was probably cold out.

From what I understand, France is nothing like the US with Halloween & trick or treating - thats probably why this experience occured

I live in the UK, we had 3 small groups of kids. It was really popular this year, it was like being in the US.

You deserved it for not just turning off your lights and pretending you're not home.

That would increase the chance of trick-or-treaters choosing "trick" if they wanted to do that. Of course, that's not very many people these days... And this isn't that bad, OP, now you've got a bunch of candy for youself! :)

awwww that really sucks. Your heart's in the right place. Maybe you could return most of it and keep some around to snack on.

So what? I haven't had a single ToT in nearly ten years and I leave my lights on. But then again I'm a scary old guy, who lives way back in the woods and likes to clean his shotgun on the front porch so the parents warn their kids to stay away from me.

lol, I wonder then why you don't get many ToTers...

Maybe you just don't live in an area with a lot of kids, or you live in an isolated spot? Either way, this means that you now have more than 14 bags of candy for yourself, so this is not that big of an FML.

If you live in France, of course no one trick or treated. Who the hell waits for kids here for Halloween anyways??? It's not our tradition. ONCE in my life some kids have coàme to my house on a Halloween night. They were my neighbour's children.
