Do You Have Enough Halloween Candy?

It gets a little stressful on Halloween night when the bucket of candy starts to run low and you still have waves of kids coming through. Do you run out for more? Do you turn off the lights and pretend you aren't home? "Popular Mechanics" has a not-so-simple formula to let you know what you'll need...

The formula is: T times K times G... plus D times F times S... divided by 75. Here's what all that means...

"T" stands for the amount of "time" in hours that you plan to hand out candy.

"K" is the estimated number of "kids" per hour you expect to show up.

"G" stands for "generosity factor" or how many pieces you'll give each kid.

"D" is the number of "days" you'll have it in your house before Halloween. That's to factor in all the candy YOU'LL eat.

"F" is the number of "family" members in your home, because they'll eat some too.

"S" stands for "sneakiness level," or the number of pieces your family will eat each day. Then divide it all by 75, which is the average number of fun size candy bars in a bag.

Confused yet? There is also a variant for rain... Click Here to get the full story and an example of how it works when you plug in the numbers... I mean, I hate math but at least it's useful math?!
