We went on The Wish last February and I asked the cast member if they will refill it at the park if I get the bucket on the ship. He wasn’t sure. When we got to Epcot, I went in line and the cast member said that the cruise is part of our length of stay (land and sea) of our Disney trip. She refilled it for us. My daughter was so happy.
Thinking of grabbing a standard bucket this fall at MK, eating popcorn all day and then using it as another container for our MNSSHP trick-or-treating!
Agree about the fancy buckets, we got a 50th Anniversary one and it was definitely hard to get your hand in and out of Mickey to eat the popcorn, we now keep it w our popcorn machine for home use but we rarely use bc it’s just not convenient to eat out of. definitely think we’re gonna do a standard bucket this time
Hi Nina.. Thanks for all these great tips, we used several of them, but the best one (in my opinion) was the ring wire + the hook, I was able to carry the bucket in my backpack without any issues 👍, even I advised to another woman how to hang the lid at the edge of the hanger 😅... We've just returned from an 8-day trip to WDW, we carried with us our popcorn bucket we bought in Disneyland about 3 years ago and we were able to refill for $2.5 each time.. Thanks again for this great content!. Keep it up.. Greetings from México
Great video, thank you so much! I just moved to FL and purchased an annual pass. Does anyone know how long I can keep refilling my bucket, according to the fine print?
As an AP, I refill whenever I go. Not sure if there is a fine print about it. Some feel more comfortable with a current bucket, but we use old ones all the time. Thanks for watching/commenting!
I like the character buckets because they have the lanyard and I can "wear them" vs "carrying them." - do the handles on the standard buckets have the same attachment style as the character buckets? (i.e. could I remove the handle on the standard bucket and attach a lanyard so that it's "wearable?")
That is policy, but like I said...hasn't been an issue. But with that said, we usually purchase a new bucket every year. Thanks for watching/commenting!
I love popcorn myself but I can't eat it the whole day that's way to much for me. I have the Pluto Christmas popcorn bucket I got back in 2017 and then I recently got another one last year in 2023 which is the musical spinning Christmas popcorn bucket. I have them for decorations but from time to time when we have movie night I use it and fill it with popcorn that I heat up in the microwave. Both of these buckets I purchased as soon as we leave the park. I rather not be carrying anything during my park day and at the end if the night I have my souvenir.
does anyone have tips for making the lid stay on better? (would cover with plastic wrap or parchment paper first before putting the lid on maybe make it tighter/stay on better?) has anyone tried this?
Omg the lid sucks. Disclaimer make sure you are holding onto the bucket if it has popcorn in it when on tower of terror will end bad if you put it by your feet 🤦♀️
They stop the deal on refills at disneyland 😪 i bought a popcorn bucket 🪣 and went to get a refill and they said i pay full price 😒 why even get the bucket and why is no one talking about this . I think it's horrible. that's one more magical thing taken away from us
My daughter was a Disney Princess for Halloween and she reused the bucket as her Trick or treat bucket. Disney themed perfect.
CUTE! Great Idea! Thanks for watching/commenting!
Blue grains at galaxy’s edge qualify for the refill price 👍🏼
YAY! Thanks for watching/commenting!

So glad its not just me :) Thanks for watching/commenting!
Lunch box! I love it! It would also be a great way to bring home so tasty treats! Or a glass ornament from the Christmas store at MK or DS.
100%. We put 2 ornaments in it last trips with socks, lol. Thanks for watching/commenting!
Great breakdown of the popcorn buckets.
Thanks! Thanks for watching/commenting too!

So glad! Thanks for watching/commenting!
Cast members had no issues refilling my older popcorn bucket on my last trip.
Awesome! Us either. Thanks for watching/commenting!
✨girl math ✨I love it
LOL! Thanks for watching/commenting!
That’s the best Disney world math I’ve heard!
LOL, YAY! Thanks for watching/commenting!
Any thoughts on getting a standard bucket in MK and then taking it on the Wish the next day? Will they frown on using it on the ship for the movies?
We have done this! They usually have the same standard buckets on the ships too. Thanks for watching/commenting!
Omg....I absolutely love your orange bird Mickey ears. What park/shop did you buy them at?
Thanks! It was at Disney World during Flower & Garden, like 2 years ago. Thanks for watching/commenting!
Love my nightmare before christmas bucket! 😉. Currently its on display with my nbc stuff.
PERFECT! Thanks for watching/commenting!
Where did you purchase the metal luggage ring? Helpful video! We are excited to get one for our longer trip this year!!

The only specialty one’s I’ve purchased have been haunted mansion or nightmare before Christmas themed so I use them as part of my Halloween decor
And yes, I have many standard ones that get used as popcorn/snack containers on movie nights
Love those ones!
Same! Thanks for watching/commenting!

@@MermaidNinaTravels Thank YOU for replying :) So, I should be good for at least a few weeks/months. Can't wait!
@@juliajames100 Or a Year :)
Fill the popcorn bucket and get in line for outside. It was a lifesaver with our kids and Thanksgiving crowds.
True! Eat while in line! Thanks for watching/commenting!
Other than the prepackaged cheddar cheese popcorn, can you buy cheddar cheese popcorn in any other the carts?
I don't think they pop fresh cheese popcorn. Thanks for watching/commenting!

(i.e. could I remove the handle on the standard bucket and attach a lanyard so that it's "wearable?")
I think this "might" work, yes. Never tried. But the handle snaps off.
Ok did not know you could only use it for the duration of your stay, went twice during to 50th not sure if I’m gonna take it again next year
That is policy, but like I said...hasn't been an issue. But with that said, we usually purchase a new bucket every year. Thanks for watching/commenting!
is it possible when you go up to the kiosk to get a "refill" that you simply pay $2.50 for a "refill" but have them put it in a fresh box?
I think this is possible and have asked that before when my bucket was filled with another flavor.

Now I want to eat popcorn 🍿🍿
YES!! Been smelling Popcorn ALL week too. Perhaps I should have made a batch for filming :) Thanks for watching/commenting!

YEP! Thanks for watching/commenting!
