Christmas popcorn buckets?

[Lambie*Loves*Dland]

I was there today and there was no bucket. The ticket booth told me that they might be out tomorrow if I didn't see them today, because they had been releasing xmas stuff little by little. The CM at the popcorn stand on main street told me "December".

So I am hoping tomorrow. I will be there for sure, and I will post if I see any

DH is at DLR today and said that he asked at the first popcorn stand that he saw and no Mickey Snowman buckets The CM told him "maybe next month."
But that was only one stand and one CM so who knows....

We will be back again next weekend, so we will check again then.

I saw no buckets and was told December...

Hopefully they have them out when I'm there Thanksgiving week. It looks so cute.

From MousePlanet's twitter:

DLR CMs say Snowman Mickey popcorn buckets won't be sold until after Thanksgiving. And there was much sadness... ^avp

Confirming, no snowman buckets but they do have Nightmare Before Christmas buckets.

No buckets in DL... Did not try CA..

Well, that news makes me a little sad.

But I will still be at the Merriest Place on Earth, so I guess I can survive the disappointment.

My little sister just returned from DL and said she saw the christmas bucket on her last day. Can anyone confirm or deniy?

Oh, he is pretty cute! I got the ghost one so I may just have to get the Snowman one. Don't know when I'll be going (AP expired in Oct.) but should be going sometime this holiday time. Maybe I can get my DNephew, who's a CM, to get me one. Of course, I'll want the caramel corn inside too! So good!

I was at DLR yesterday, and every popcorn cart we walked past did not have the Mickey snowman. We didn't see it anywhere in DL, at least. Whether or not they had it in DCA is another story, as we didn't get over there.

There is most definitely a holiday popcorn bucket for sale, but there was no sign of the Mickey snowman from what I could tell.

ugh just got back today and NO bucket!!! i'm so upset, every CM last week was telling me THIS weekend. maybe my original date for Dec 8th was right? i hope they come out soon!!!

So are these very limited in quality, or is everyone just anxious to get one but they sell them through the whole holiday season? We'll be there after Thanksgiving but we leave on the 8th, so hopefully we can get one....just curious tho if I need to be buying popcorn at 8am in order to do so!

Your little slip (that I took the liberty of bolding) was definitely an issue with the ghost popcorn buckets.

Since Disney had to pull the initial shipment of ghosts and wait for new ones, thus limiting the amount of time they were available, that likely caused much more frenzy and much longer lines to get them than would have occured otherwise. (JMO of course)

I do think the snowman buckets will be popular, but I bet Disney will be prepared with lots of them, especially since they know what a hot item the ghost buckets were.

I hope they show up during your trip, and I also hope you don't have to wait in line at 8am to get one, unless you're craving popcorn for breakfast of course.

UPDATE: the release date is gonna be december 8th...again

 

[uneekstylez]

Dangit! We're leaving on the 7th.

 

[ConnieB]

Cool...we leave on the 8th...guess we'll have to venture into the park on departure day....oh the chore of it all, lol.

 

[Krissy Marissy]

Sweet I will definitely go the 8th instead of the 10th! Might have to make two trips now These look super cute and I know my kids would LOVE them! Thanks for the info!
