Popcorn buckets

[crazyredhead]

Not very original but my kids use them as pails for the beach.

We have one for our spare change towards our next trip...and two that are our...popcorn buckets! Nothing like popping some microwave popcorn and eating it from our Disney buckets!

We have 2 popcorn buckets, on different levels of the house, and they are the "Disney money" buckets. My daughters put all of their birthday, tooth fairy, holiday money into them, plus my husband and I daily put in our spare change. When they get about halfway full, we take the buckets to the bank, cash in the change and then immediately go to the Disney store and buy gift cards for our next Disney trip!
It's really sweet that my kids put in all of their money, too!

My daughter uses Mickey to rinse the shampoo from her hair in the bathtub. Perfect amount of water, with a handle and it is fun for her to play with.

Thanks Jamie, think I may need to get one this summer. Do all the parks offer the same bucket or do all the parks offer different designs?

There are some designs that are different and at TDR they even have different flavored popcorn. This is an example of one the newer buckets. Donald Bucket

I use ours for storage of flour and sugar, etc. they fit nicely into the cabinet and I use the different design for each one so I know which is which.....

Great ideas everyone! We keep one of our old buckets under the bathroom sink- it is holding some tub toys for bath time. The other bucket we have is in the sand box outside- but now I can't wait to get a couple more new buckets when we are there in April!

Take care,
Diana

I hadn't thought about using them as canisters in the kitchen but that is also a great idea! I love all the replys. Can't wait to go back to get another one.

We also use them as popcorn buckets *gasp* we do have a popcorn machine in the garage though (like at the movie theater). DH and YDS have a popcorn problem.

We use ours for flour and sugar too. They do work nice in the cabenets.

I have also used them to send soup to family, cereal containers, sand buckets ...

These are some great ideas!! We use ours for sand play at the beach.

I have one, I use it to hold my change for Disney. I don't really love the design (it's the blue and white where dreams come true one I think) so if I see one I like better I'm going to buy a new one....don't know what I'll do with the old one, but I'm pretty sure I'm never going to need more than 1.

Hey, I can't remember. Can you use a snack credit for the bucket, or just for the small size in a bag?

I'm so excited for our upcoming trip to see what the current design is & to get one (or two or three or.....)

Can someone post pics of what they currently offer as far as buckets for 2011?
