*Always sit at the beginning of the route. Candy givers are well stocked, eager and generous.
* Find a spot with no other children around. Possibly away from the regular line of parade traffic if possible. Not only is there no fighting for candy, but the candy givers feel sorry for the little kids who are out of reach and probably not getting anything, and then go out of their way to come over and give an extra helping. Every. Time. Also, find a spot with cops nearby. Everyone throws candy at the cops. They don't want it, so they give it to the poor, deprived kids who aren't sitting very close to the parade route.
* Bring a big bucket. Even if you have to leave when the parade is only half done.
* And always, ALWAYS sit at the beginning of the parade route.
