Dad Tax!
The trick or treating will be in full force tonight as the kids go out in our communities and see just how full they can fill their bags/pillow cases/wagons! And of course, as the ritual would have it, dads everywhere will be swooping in and laying their claim to a decent portion of the haul.
Dad Tax!
Let’s be clear, the dad tax is applicable in all jurisdictions throughout the year. It often shows up driving in the car with a dad hand sliding between the front seats when our kids have something sweet in the back. However, I’d be willing to lay money on the line that the tax rate goes up substantially every Oct 31st (and likely for days & weeks to come).
I lay claim to a variety of candy – Reeses PB cups, Reeses Pieces, M&M’s, among others and of course my all-time favourite, ROCKETS!
I’m not a big Hallowe’en guy, and don’t love getting dressed up. But the candy & chips part of the night, that’s something I can support!
May all the kids heading out this evening have fun and be safe!
And to all those dads out there, enjoy the most profitable Dad Tax day of the year!
PS – if you have an over abundance of Rockets, you know who to call!
