McDonald’s Halloween Boo Buckets 2024
The spooky season treats- The McDonald’s Halloween Boo Buckets are loved by kids(some adults, too!). They come in handy in the place of the traditional trick-or-treat buckets. The boo buckets are available in four colors- white, classic-orange, green, and this year a new blue color bucket is added to the list. The blue color boo bucket replaces last year’s purple boo bucket. Last year in 2023, the boo buckets had specific horrifying characters such as the Skeleton, the Mummy and Vampire figures on it. This year, McDonald’s has changed the bucket design to a cute but vague monster. With the boo buckets, stickers are given so that the kids(and some adults, too!) can creatively customize it according to their wishes.
What people are saying about these Boo Buckets?
Since McDonald’s Halloween Boo Buckets release date is announced, people have become so excited for this year boo buckets collection. McDonald’s announced the release date on their official X(Twitter) page. Reacting to the announcement, several users posted fun Halloween gifs, commenting funny things to celebrate the news. Many users expressed their gratitude to McDonald’s for bringing the spooky and cute boo buckets back this year too.
While many users expressed positive opinions about the boo buckets, some users, however, were not impressed by this year’s designs. They said the designs were not as spooky and cool as last year’s. While some people also said that this year’s McDonald’s boo buckets are not as good as the seasonal collection by their competitor Wendy.
One of the main complaints since the images of the boo buckets went out is the lack of a lid option. Earlier versions of these boo buckets have come with a lid to secure the contents of the buckets. The released images show a plastic McDonald’s arch design attached to the handle not a lid. While this design feature may seem challenging to some people if they want to use the boo buckets for heavy storage, they are still cute and beautiful to look at.
