Some Disney Fans Are So Obsessed With This Popcorn Bucket, They Use It as a Purse

When you close your eyes and imagine Disneyland or Walt Disney World, you probably envision the sound of laughter, the sweet smell of churros or chocolate, and colorful clusters of Disney's iconic Mickey Mouse balloons. These balloons are almost as vital to the Disneyland skyline as Sleeping Beauty's castle, so it makes sense that Disney would find a way to transform them into a more permanent piece of memorabilia for park guests. During Disneyland's 24-hour 60th anniversary celebration in 2015, balloon-shaped collectible popcorn buckets were sold to lucky attendees . . . but now, they're back for the general public and better than ever!

Disney fanatics aren't walking — they're sprinting to buy their own Mickey balloon popcorn buckets at both Disneyland and WDW's Magic Kingdom. There is a regular option, which is a plastic balloon-shaped bucket with a matching handle, and there's also a special yellow version with a blue cross-body strap. The latter is extra popular, with Disney fans even joking that they'll use it as a purse after eating the popcorn!

You can find your own at various stands throughout both parks, priced at $15 each. And if you're confused about how to actually eat the popcorn inside, don't worry; there's a small door on the back of Mickey's balloon head where you can access your snack. Check out these photos of the bucket and you'll see why everybody's rushing to get one for themselves!
