    Can I use a popcorn bucket I got in a different trip to WDW

    Hi Maria Teresa,  

    Welcome to planDisney! It’s so exciting that you’re planning another trip to The Most Magical Place on Earth. When my family arrives on property, one of our first traditions (aside from grabbing our Resort Refillable Mugs for endless coffee, soda, and tea) is to scoop up the latest refillable popcorn bucket. Over the years, we’ve gathered quite the collection! They’ve become perfect companions for family Disney movie nights—everyone picks their own bucket to enjoy their favorite snacks in style.  

    To answer your question, refillable popcorn buckets purchased on a previous trip cannot be reused for refills on a future visit. Each bucket is valid only during the trip it was purchased, so you’ll need to pick up a new one to enjoy those discounted refills on your upcoming stay.  

    Since it sounds like you’ll be adding another popcorn bucket to your collection, be sure to explore the popcorn carts at each park before making your selection! Some parks feature special-edition buckets inspired by beloved characters and movies. I’ve come across unique designs like a Pumbaa popcorn bucket at Disney’s Animal Kingdom and a Pizza Planet truck bucket at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Unfortunately, we had already picked up the Disney Parks bucket that trip, so I had to pass them by, but they’re definitely on my wishlist!  

    I hope this helps answer your question, Maria Teresa. If you have any more vacation planning inquiries, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I love sharing recommendations for Disney Resorts Collection hotels, snacking spots, and fun activities to enjoy on non-theme park days. Wishing you an unforgettable visit!

    See you real soon,
    Brent
