When the Municipality of Nouvelle-Arcadie postponed Halloween trick-or-treating, that gave some kids the chance to double-up on their candy quotas.

Friday's heavy rain forecast led some New Brunswick municipalities, including Nouvelle-Arcadie, to postpone their door-to-door ghostly greetings by a day.

The rain fell short, but the decision was already made.

But it worked out nicely for 10-year old Peyton Wright and her friends.

Wright was dressed as a hunter.

"We get two Halloweens and that means more candy," she said. "Yesterday, we went to Moncton and today we are going to Rogersville."

Karleigh Arsenault, 10, said the idea to postpone the local event was a wonderful decision.

"Two full grocery bags" is how much candy she already had from her trip to Moncton.
