I got my first two souvenir popcorn buckets on this trip and I'm wondering what to do with them now that I got them home! What do you do with your popcorn buckets?
 
We use them for all of our pocket change from the day. We then save the change for our next trip to Disney.
 
Ice buckets, we put popcorn back in it for family movie nights, crayons and markers in it for road trips...:thumbsup2
 
I like to use them for my antenna topper collection. When I return home from a trip, I buy some small dowels, put the antenna toppers on them, and then put them in a popcorn bucket. It doesn't get much more Disney than that. :thumbsup2
 

Canisters for the kitchen. I have 4 different ones for sugar, flour, coffee and tea bags. With the sugar and flour I put it in a ziploc bag in so it stays better.

That is a great Idea!:thumbsup2 I have so much coffee, but no containers, now I know what to do with it!:laughing:
 
We are big popcorn eaters (stove popped, not microwave!) so we use them for popcorn. We made sure to get three of them on our last trip so we would each have one.

Cute idea!!!
 
crayons, markers and other art stuff for dd.
we have a few different color ones - so the red, orange and yellow crayons go in the one with a red top, green and brown and black in the one with a green top, and blue, purple and white in the one with the blue top, that way my daughter can keep them separated....

i like the flour, sugar and coffee and such idea...
 
We use ours for popcorn.... each kid has his own container so it works out well.
 
Me too (see a picture that is) do you get them from the popcorn carts?popcorn::
 
Here are some pics of our Fantasmic and EPCOT buckets... they're from 2001, so I'm sure they're completely different now...

ETA, they cost $1 more than the regular popcorn (so $3.75) and you can't use a snack credit. Essentially they are a nice souvie for $1!
 
Last year I used 3 buckets for Christmas present holders for my niece and nephews. I'll probably do the same thing again this year.
