Open for business

Not sure whether a business is open? Look for this poster in the window. If they have a poster in the window, this means they are handing out candy and you’re invited to trick or treat inside. NO poster in the window means the business owner is not handing out candy.

Walk this way!

Look for arrows posted on walls to make sure you’re not swimming up stream.
