**Last Day to Score McDonald’s Halloween Happy Meal Buckets!
Today is the last day for McDonald’s Halloween Happy Meal Buckets! 🎃
Take a spooky walk down McDonald’s memory lane!
Don’t miss out on these nostalgic McDonald’s Halloween pails that haven’t made an appearance since 2016! Today, October 31st, is the last day these cute buckets will be available.
The trio of Halloween pails – known as McBoo, McPunk’n, and McGoblin – are available with your Happy Meal purchase at participating restaurants nationwide through today or while supplies last! And each bucket comes with spooky stickers – so fun!
Most Happy Meals start in price around $4.49 depending on where you live so not a bad deal when the bucket and stickers are included!
McDonald’s has been helping families celebrate Halloween since way back in 1965 when the restaurant gave away trick-or-treat bags for children to decorate with the purchase of every Happy Meal.
When McDonald’s replaced the trick-or-treat bags with buckets in the 1980s, people loved them so much that they found ways to reuse them year-round. Below, you can see some of the creative ways that McDonald’s fans are still finding to repurpose their beloved Halloween pails.
While McDonald’s doesn’t give away Halloween buckets every year, they have offered them many times since they were first introduced. These releases included several different versions and redesigns, which eventually evolved into the modern-day pumpkin, ghost, and goblin we see this season! 👻

Never Miss a Deal!

Love these buckets!!
ME TOO! ππ
This would be amazing!
My son is older now and we use these for trunk or treat⦠candy buckets to pass out, bean bag toss and more
How fun! Thanks for sharing with us, Lisa!
That would be sooooo amazing especially the smiles on kids faces π
Omg I remember these when I was a kid! Hope they bring it back so my son can enjoy them
And the lids had a cookie cutter!
Omg yes, I remember that!
Oh yes! Thanks for that reminder!
Distance makes the heart grow fonder! I hope I can get these for my kids!
I hope so too, Katie! β€οΈπ€
Iβm hella excited about this post Iβm so getting a happy meal if this is true!!
What will be the cost of the happy meal
The Happy Meal price should stay the same. We’ll keep an eye out for any additional details that pop up!
Bring back the Halloween coupon books
Hopefully, we’ll see those too!
The McDonalds website makes no mention of this. Please tell me its for real!
Hey Donna! There hasnβt been any sort of official confirmation from McDonaldβs, but the reports are promising with a leak of their corporate calendar showing the pails as being set to be available at the fast food restaurants starting October 18th thru October 24th or while supplies last. We have our fingers crossed that they will be available! π€β€οΈ
The nostalgia… π₯°
I can only imagine the crafts for this!!! Hello Pinterest π
Since McD already had me buying the overpriced adult Happy Meal this week… I’m definitely looking forward to these!! Sometimes it’s the small things that can brighten the day π
Yes! SO true! Enjoy! π€π
How much are these more or less? My daughter is having a Halloween party on the 29th and instead of buying food that they might leave it might be better to get them all happy meals that they can use for Halloween.
That’s such a cute idea, Daisy! I’m not seeing any details on a price on these. Hoping that they are reasonably priced! π€β€οΈ
There is a rumor that these will be for Canada only. Really hoping it’s also for US. π€ Would be so disappointed
Hey Michelle! It looks like McDonald’s has released the information on social media, including the ones for the United States. Hoping this is helpful! π
Yay!!! I’m just now seeing it!! Can’t wait!πππ
YES! I’m excited too! Hoping you can score one (or a few π)! π€
Is the pail considered the toy or will there be a toy inside?
Great question, Hailey!!! The pail is considered to be the toy. Hope that’s helpful.β€οΈ
Will they be in the adult happy meals as well?
Hey Ryan! The adult happy meals are not including the pails. Hoping this is helpful! π
Yaaaayy! Now all we need is the ice cream cone voucher booklet to give to trick or treaters and my life will be complete!
Check your McDonaldβs app. I have buy one get one for a $1.
Awesome deal! Thanks for the heads up!π I don’t have that one listed in my app. Glad you can grab the savings on them! π
I have this too! Was surprised to see it!
I was so excited about these buckets was able to get one today, and am so disappointed, itβs so small and the pale handle is placed in a way that when you hold the handle the boo face is on the side of the bucket and not in the front! I know people are posting pics on their social media, a suggestion is you might want to see it before buying.
Thanks for letting us know what you thought of it! Sorry to hear it is smaller than expected. I’m hoping to score one soon!π€β€οΈ
I just bought a happy meal in Pittsburgh, PA and received the ghost bucket. It doesnβt actually have a lidβjust a horizontal piece (to reinforce the handle?).
Thanks for the heads up on this! π€I know many were curious about a possible lid.
Yeah, I was super disappointed to learn this too. Real lame.
Got a white ghost bucket today!!
Aww, great! Thanks for letting us know which one you scored! π»
I would just want the bucket and not McDonald’s food. After I got really sick of there food I have never gone there again in years
So sorry to hear about your previous experience, sue! Hoping you might be able to grab a bucket only at your nearest location! π₯°
So glad we got these and they didn’t cost anymore than a regular Happy Mealπ Yay!
Woohoo! So happy to hear you scored some buckets, SavingsMama! π€
Went to get a Happy Meal today and a plain old cardboard box. Boo hoo!
Bummer! Thanks so much for letting us know what you received at your McDonald’s, Stacey!
Buckets gone where I live.
Darn! Thanks for letting us know, Patti!
Honey they were gone a few weeks ago π€£π€£π€£
My local McDβs stopped on Saturday.
