</li><li>When selecting treats to pass out at the homestead, avoid non-nutritious candies and gums. Instead offer celery and blue cheese sauce platters. While the neighborhood rugrats may loathe you, you'll undoubtedly be a hit with the local dental hygienist (Note: House windows should be securely boarded before attempting).
</li><li>Get all the houses on your street to give out pop cans of less known brands. Watch kids turning around to go empty their bags as it's too heavy.
</li><li> Take care to choose a Halloween personae that lends itself to self-defense. A wicked witch with the trademark broom has a vast combative edge over an wand-wielding fairy.
</li><li> When trying to choose an appropriate costume, be sure to select the darkest colors available. Go for black ninja suits or other non-reflective garb.
</li><li> When out collecting candy, visit houses in out-of-the-way dimly lit areas. Especially look for houses without *any* lights on. These are the enthusiasts trying to make Halloween especially authentic and eerie for little ghoulies.
</li><li> If no unlit houses can be found in your area, you will be forced to approach the well-lighted houses. But don't knock on the door! Instead, sneak around an knock on windows or rustle around in crawl-spaces. The resident family will appreciate your sense of originality and will likely reward you handsomely.
</li><li> Go to the bank and do a "hold up" but instead say "gimme all your candy!" as there are sometimes candy at the teller durring this time of year. Make it seem like a hold up, but don't even mention money.
</li><li> Costume accessories can really make the difference. Avoid using plastic props. Opt for real cutlery to stand out in the crowd.
</li><li> And for little tikes, don't garb them in a white bed sheet that's bound to get tarnished! To cut Halloween budget corners, use white kitchen garbage bags. The costume also doubles as a large goodie bag, in the event that the feelings of asphyxiation simply become too unbearable for the youngster.
</li><li>Paint a big rock as a pumpkin in a place that makes kicking tempting, and give out crappy candy, or just say no to teenagers.
</li><li> You can also look for organized community events to entertain teens. Who can forget playing "Disintegrate The Mailbox," "Pumpkin Toss," "Teacher Toilet Paper Party," "Plastic Pumpkin Pillage," and "Pummel The Ghoulies."
</li><li> Before bobbing for apples at your local Halloween carnival, fill your mouth brimming full with ketchup. When underwater, discharge the goo, then frantically jerk your head up out of the water screaming, "Razor! Razor!"</li></ul>

but the question is where do i get a big enuff rock that could pass as a pumpkin 
. Oh, and for the pumpkin thing, just go out and buy one of the plastic pumpkins and fill it to the rim with cement. Then when the cement hardens, removed the plastic part and VOILA you've got a mould! Then just paint it with some really good acrylics and place it at the edge of your street and have it say: "Kick me, I DARE YOU!". I pity the teens that still wear sandals at this time
