Uses for popcorn buckets?

[Tricialiv]

I have a 2005 Happy Holidays one that my daughter uses to water flowers. Are there always different ones for the parties like MVMCP? That is where I got it. I definately want to get a few more this trip.

I wasn't going to post because I thought my use was obvious -- but actually I hadn't thought to use them for popcorn which i guess is truly the obvious answer....my kids use them at the beach all summer. They're a great size for little ones, and seeing them everyday (we live in a lake community and hit the beach everyday in the summer...) makes me smile.

We've used a few for coins and markers, too...looking forward to getting new ones!

We use our for markers and in the sand box. I think I'll save this years for popcorn!

We use them for spare change. We actually cut a hole in the top to easily put change in them and make it feel more like a bank. We also have a few filled with our disney potato head parts.

For homemade soup to pass along to our neighbor's

Ohhh, that's a good idea. I hadn't thought of that either.

We use ours as a bucket at the beach!

Our kids use them for their toys, markers and crayons.

I use mine to throw all my change in and then I cash it in when I am ready to go back to Disney.

Those popcorn buckets are fun!!! I may have to get a few of those on our next trip! I didn't know about these!!! Thanks for posting!!!

Okay here's what we use them for......
My kids call them the "potty bucket" - An "all purpose" bucket for the car to tinkle in or throw up in. My little blessings (dd8 & ds5) always seem to need to go potty at the most inopportune times where there's no potty. My DS also has a slight tendency to get car sick really fast, which is no fun to clean out of a car seat. Just hand him the bucket. I have 2. I wash them out w/ dishwashing liguid & bleach wipe them out.
I hope on our next trip in just 6 DAYS I can get a couple to really use as popcorn or something fun!opcorn::

My 2 1/2 yr old loves movies and they are the perfect size for him to snack on while watching them(over & over & over!). Plus, the Disney trip was our first real vacation with him & they are a nice reminder for him when he sees Mickey! I didn't realize how useful they would be though I wish I would have got one at each park on our last trip.

Homemade cookies, and popcorn for the pool or beach.

My girls love using them for popcorn when they watch their favorite Disney movie
