    Kelly R. said:  A house on my street gave out these mini hand sanitizers as Halloween candy alternatives, and the kids went nuts for them. They felt like they had hit the jackpot! Though I don't totally understand the appeal myself, I figure a little extra (adult supervised) germ fighting couldn't hurt on a night when the kids are running around in suboptimal weather and indulging in candy!
