So if you can’t be bothered to get off the sofa every five minutes, you’ll need to check this out[/caption]

Particularly if you are someone who wants to enjoy a cosy night in on the couch, without having to greet young children dressed in spooky costumes, you’ve come to the right place.

Thanks to Vikki Bowie, a content creator from the UK, you won’t have to worry about trick-or-treaters disturbing your evening tomorrow.

Vikki took to social media to share her simple trick, but it left people totally divided.

Whilst some ‘loved it’ and hailed it ‘genius’, not everyone was on the same page and pointed out a major flaw.

Posting on TikTok, Vikki explained that prior to the evening of 31st October, she will make her own sweet bags for trick-or-treaters.

The woman simply adds a small handful of sweets and treats into a plastic bag, which she then sticks onto her front door.

But rather than waiting for her doorbell to ring to hand them out and to ensure that trick-or-treaters don’t disturb her evening, she then added a sign on her door, which read: ‘Just take one and f**k off.’

Thrilled with her super simple but effective hack, Vikki wrote: “Great idea for Hallowen when you just can’t be bothered with the trick-or-treaters knocking on your door every five minutes.” 

She then told trick-or-treaters: “Read the sign kids!”

The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @vikkibowie, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up a jaw-dropping 771,800 views. 

But social media users were left divided by Vikki’s idea – whilst some thought it was a great idea, others weren’t so keen and claimed that children wouldn’t just take one bag.

One user beamed: “That’s a great idea.”

This is absolutely genius

A second chimed in: “I love this.”

Someone else claimed: “Class, I’m pinching this.”

I live in a ‘posh’ estate, this would be frowned upon

Whilst another beamed: “This is absolutely genius.”

However, at the same time, one person said: “Where I live people would take them all at once.”

Another agreed: “They would take all of them.”

A third commented: “Just don’t answer the door.” 

Meanwhile, one user explained: “I live in a ‘posh’ estate, this would be frowned upon.”
