I know this isn't really dining, but it is eating.....sort of.
A friend of ours stopped by the house over the weekend. They had just gotten back from WDW and surprised us with a popcorn bucket from the MNSSHP. Actually, the bucket is for our youngest grandson, Danny....aka D3. Let me tell you, I love that Nightmare Before Christmas popcorn bucket. It is one of the best I have seen for WDW. The photo looks great, but in person it is so nice.
I don't collect popcorn buckets, or really anything. But the grands always seem to be getting a new ones each trip.

Some of the popcorn buckets (like this one) make me wish I had space to collect/display them.

I neither really like the Nightmare Before Christmas nor get into popcorn buckets, but I think this is really well done.

Does look nice. Do the wheels move?

The wheels do move and it lights up! And the Mayor's head turns, lol. We had to get one when we were at the Party.

Still doesn’t surpass Cinderella’s carriage bucket, but I wouldn’t turn it down. I have resorted to selling my Disney collectibles to yard sales. I had so much stuff I didn’t have room for more Disneyana.  |

The Mr. Toad one that they assumed would sell like hotcakes didn’t really and it was in the AP sale at Wide World of Sports for $5. I don’t think it was as fancy as this one and I don’t think the wheels moved.
I have 2 that I use for decorations for Halloween and Christmas. Otherwise, I’ve controlled myself. They take up an amazing amount of room! Oh…and the free DVC one. I brought it when the family was here this month and no one wanted to carry it all day to get the cheap refill of the maple popcorn in Canada. I guess it’s great, but I cannot eat popcorn.

On the last day (maybe other days) of the AP Merchandise Event, the Mr Toad popcorn bucket was BOGO. They were also giving out the Spike the Bee drink sipper for free as you left the event. We went back to the Merchandise Event on Tuesday as a guest of a CM and they either ran out of Mr Toad buckets or pulled them for the CM sale days. |

We went back to the Merchandise Event on Tuesday as a guest of a CM and they either ran out of Mr Toad buckets or pulled them for the CM sale days. Based on how much merchandise they had at the event (I watched 2 streams) they really missed the mark on how much they ordered of many items. I was in awe of how much stuff they had leftover…way too much for the outlets. |
