They're Only In It For The Candy

With only a couple of days before till Halloween, CBS News Sunday Morning Correspondent Bill Geist once again demonstrates his concept: Power Trick Or Treating, or PTOT.

He trains a group of young recruits in the ABCs of PTOT (getting candy), explaining, "They were here to be taught a systematic approach to maximizing candy accumulation."

That includes, according to Geist, carrying a "a 30-gallon trash bag or a pillow case off your mom and dad's bed."

Ever vigilant against "dilly-dallying or disorganization," Geist puts the kids through a Halloween boot camp that includes the use of his Halloween Tactical Terrain Map and the selection of "an area of expensive homes, situated close together, so that we won't waste a lot of time going from house to house."
