Cartoon of the Grim Reaper/Death at the door of a smiling, plump woman giving out Halloween candy. Death says: “I’m not wearing a costume. I’m here to take your sou—” The sentence breaks off when he sees what the woman gave him, then he exclaims: “Holy Shit full size Snickers” He concludes: “Nevermind Margaret we’re good”

        How else does Death guarantee a steady supply of full sized Snickers? The arrangement works for both of them.

          Also helps kill the kids with diabetes or peanut allergies. In the long run death gets more business keeping her alive.

          He could just threaten everyone he comes for to buy him some full-sized Snickers or he’ll take their soul. Most would consider that a fair trade.

            Oh, I’m sure that, once word gets out, everyone will have a few Snickers or similar treats to hand at all times, sort of like how spirits would be sent to the afterlife with two coins for Charon, but a bit earlier in the process.

              And then for the suicidal people, he’d threaten to NOT take them if they don’t buy him some Snickers.
