Juiced’s Flip Of The Week: 5th – 11th June 2023

Junho 11, 2023

Welcome to Juiced’s Flip Of The Week for the week of June 5th-June 11th. In this series of articles, we reveal our favorite (not necessarily the most profitable) product of the week each Sunday, allowing you to get a sneak peek of the rewards reaped by Juiced members. This week we have selected a popcorn bucket that was released to coincide with the release of Disney’s new Little Mermaid film. Whilst the movie itself may have underperformed at the box office, this popcorn bucket certainly did not, yielding a high return on investment for our users.

Recent times have seen strange items become highly collectible and one of these is popcorn buckets. At first glance, these colorful containers might just seem like gimmicks designed to drive up the cost of your cinema snacks. However, for the shrewd reseller, these buckets have the potential to deliver surprisingly high returns. This is due in large to these buckets having found a sweet spot at the intersection of cinema fandom and the booming market for collectibles. The harder a bucket is to get, the higher its resale value. Limited edition or exclusive buckets will usually perform best. Many theaters in the US offer exclusive buckets that can only be bought at their screening of a film or online store. This was the case with this Little Mermaid bucket shown above. Another important factor when reselling popcorn buckets is a character’s popularity and the uniqueness of the bucket design. This bucket certainly ticks these two boxes also.

Following the release of The Little Mermaid, AMC Theaters released this limited edition bucket both online and in their theaters. The bucket contains two walls and also LED lighting. These features are what have made it a hit among collectors and resellers. It retailed at $25, which may seem costly for a popcorn bucket for those who are uneducated on this market. However, it is now going on eBay for over $100, marking a huge return on investment for our members who were informed of the bucket before it quickly sold out.
