Snickers Wants to Change <br />the Date of Halloween On July 26, Snickers, Twix, Skittles, Starburst<br />and M&M’s all shared a petition to change the<br />date of Halloween to the last Saturday of October. The five brands have a combined total of almost<br />1 million followers on their Twitter accounts. <br /> The petition, which currently has over 100,000 signatures,<br />was created by The Halloween & Costume Association. According to the petition webpage, having an<br />annual Saturday Halloween would make for a<br />“safer, longer, stress-free celebration.” Supporters of the petition believe having<br />Halloween on the weekend would allow for<br />more adult supervision, as well as more festivities. In addition to promoting the petition, Snickers<br />also promised to give out 1 million Snickers<br />bars if the date is officially changed. Snickers, via Twitter
