October is a month full of Halloween- carving pumpkins,
corn mazes, haunted houses, costumes, and scary movies are all part of the fun. But we all know that
the real fun begins on Halloween when children get to dress up in their costume
and roam the streets giving tricks or receiving treats.
Trick'O'Treating, like Halloween, can be traced back
to All Souls Day. All the poor people would go out at night to people's
homes begging and the people would give them treats called soul cakes.
After a while, times changed and the children became the
beggars. As they went to different houses, they would be given fruit,
bread, and maybe money. Now, when the custom came to America, the
children would be given candy to prevent the people from being tricked.
It is the tradition that if a person did not give the child candy, the child
would play a trick on them.
If you want a treat, come into Check City where you
can get cash immediately for your unwanted scrap gold. This Halloween and
always, Check City is treating you.
