10 for $10: Only Treats Edition
Halloween’s just about to hit us folks – and if you’re looking to hand out something more creative than a mini candy bar, I’ve picked out 10 nifty ideas under $10. Granted, it might be pricey to give these items out if you’ve got hundreds, or even dozens, of kids. But if you’ve got a limited number or you’re picking out some special items for your own kids or your niece / nephew etc. then all of these would be cool, creative treats come Halloween.
Pumpkin Lollipops – $2.25 each or $6 for three @ Purdys
Available in dark and milk chocolate, these are definitely sweet treats, but at least it’ll teach the kids thedifferencee between decadent and regular ol’ chocolate.
Play-Doh Halloween Treat Bag – $11.72 for 15 @ Amazon
Yes, technically this is over $10, but when you break it down, each item costs less than $1, showing you can give away something totally fun for just a little more than candy – and without the toothache.
Brain Power Gummies – From $6 @ Squish
Zombies are a classic Halloween motif – and now the kids can get their Walking Dead on with these yummy, creamy, intensely fruity candies.
Lush Halloween Collection 2016 – From $5.95
These are just a few selections from Lush’s awesome Halloween line-up, which changes every year. From the new Goth Fairy Shimmer Bar to the colour-changing Autumn Leaf Bath Bomb to the pumpkin spice-scented Pumpkin bath bomb, there’s plenty to love – and gift – for under $10.
Pack of 8 Marshmallow or Milk Chocolate Bars – $9.99 @ Laura Secord
Yup, you can give away a good-sized bar made from yumtastic chocolate for a pretty good price. Pick up a pack in both marshmallow and milk chocolate and let the kids take their pick.
Halloween Fun 5-Pack PocketBac Sanitizers – $6 @ Bath & Body Works
Before they dive into that candy, make sure their hands are clean – give ’em one of these five spooky yet silly anti-bacterial hand gels.
Black Licorice and Orange Cream Saltwater Taffy – $8.90 / 1 lb bag (~70 pieces) @ Connexion Candy
Go old school and hand out saltwater taffy on Halloween – it’s relatively cheap to buy and totally unique to whatever else they’ll get. Plus, it’s already pre-wrapped!
Halloween Bubbles – $8 for 24 @ Party Express
Keep their spirits lifted without the sugar high with a fun bubble container themed to Halloween. Available in Frankenstein, Ghost and Pumpkin variations.
Candy Corn Sucker Rings – $6.99 / 12 @ Open a Party
Add a little glitz and glamour (or not) with this fun twist on ring pops – with a honey-flavoured candy corn theme, perfect for Halloween.
Halloween Bounce Balls – $9.99 each for 24 @ Party City
There’s tons of creative Halloween handout ideas at Party City, including erasers, tattoos and more – but these spooky bouncy balls caught my eye. Just find me a little one that won’t love playing pranks with those eyeballs!

I love the Lush Halloween Collection 2016.
Purdue chocolate pumpkin pops for me
The Lush Halloween line up is the best. I bought the pumpkin fizzy last year and really enjoyed it.

The sanitizes are a good idea after knocking on dozens of strangers’ doors all night!
I like the bath bombs
As much as I would enjoy the bath bombs – I would have to go with the Chocolate Covered Marshmallows and Chocolate Bars from Laura Secord!! I would enjoy the chocolate even more!!
The bubbles are a great alternative to candy. I am a subscriber.
I like the Laura Secord Marshmallow Bars.
I like the Lush Halloween Collection

Laura Secord is always good.
I would go for a dark chocolate pumpkin lollipop. For myself. I live in an apartment and we don’t give out Halloween candy.

The salt water taffy has my name all over it.
Oh I,m a tradionalist with candy, the Laura Secord Marshmellow bars.
I love the Lush Halloween Collection
Love the bouncy balls, Play-Doh and hand sanitizers! As a diabetic, I absolutely hated Halloween as a kid, since my parents took away all the good stuff and left me with the “healthy” treats. Ugh. I always make it a point to give out toys instead of sugar-filled treats. The kids love it and the parents, especially those dealing with children’s allergies and such, appreciate it.
The candy corn sucker rings are really neat.
I love the playdoh idea.
i like the bouncing balls or the bubbles or playdoh. I guess playdoh. they are all good prices and we only get about 25 kids…
The Lush Halloween Collection is a great treat for those not able to consume sugar plus..bath bombs are calorie free!
The Lush Halloween Collection is a great treat for those unable to tolerate sugar treats…plus bath bombs are calorie free.
The Halloween Bubbles look fun!
Oh, the pumpkin lollipops, because they are chocolate, of course.
For the kids I would choose the Play-Doh Hallowe’en Treat Bag, however, for myself I would have to choose the Purdy’s Pumpkin Lollipops!
i would love to get these for my siblings they look super delicious and i cannot afford to buy candies to give to kids for Halloween so this would be something nice to make the kids happy
BONUS : I love the Brain Power Gummies .
I have given away the play-doh for years now at Halloween.. I love the brain power gummies and the candy corn sucker rings.. The ‘Boo’ bath melt is pretty great too.
