Are you afraid you're going to buy too much or too little candy this Halloween? Here is a handy Candy Calculator to use to figure out exactly how much to get!
(T*K*G) + (D*F*S) = Candy Pieces divided by 30 = ?? Bags of candy
T= the time, in number of hours, you plan to leave the light on
K = estimated number of kids per hour that ring the doorbell
G = the generosity factor (how many pieces will be distributed to each trick-or-treater)
D = the number of days between the initial candy purchase and Halloween
F = the number of family members in the household
S = the sneaky factor (average pieces of candy each member of the household will eat per day)
If rain is in the forecast, divide the final count by 1.5.
