So I was hoping to get the mini Boo Bucket or the soda machine since I'm obsessed with the Diet Coke but I got....well, hold on, let me back up.
McDonald's has Lil McDonald's Happy Meals with mini McDonald's themed toys in them.
These toys:
Isn't the mini Boo Bucket adorable? A part of me wanted to ask one of the workers if she could please find box #8 which is rumored to be the mini Boo Bucket but all the employees are always rushing around with food and drinks and I didn't want to be annoying. Like if I were them and I was trying to deliver food the last thing I'd want to deal with is some spaz being like, "Oh, can you check a Happy Meal toy for me?"
So I stayed quiet and kept my fingers crossed.
I got my Happy Meal and manifested the mini Boo Bucket.
Did I feel foolish manifesting a mini Boo Bucket when the US is in absolutely chaos? Yes. But sometimes you gotta disassociate from that for a bit so you don't completely lose it.
I took a deep breath as I reached inside. There was a mini Happy Meal box and I thought, you will contain a mini Boo Bucket.
I opened it and:
Yeah. Not a mini Boo Bucket. Probably the most boring item you can receive, actually. I mean, yes, I do love the fries. Very much. But it's like, oh fun, fries on a tray. How dull. It's like picking Jello when creme brûlée is also available. Perhaps the universe thought I'd like the fries since I'm constantly shoving them in my mouth when I'm stressed.
Anyway. I'll try again next week if they are still available. Specialty toys tend to go fast and then leftover old toys are put in the Happy Meal box. Like those mini booklet things. But maybe I'll get lucky and get the mini Boo Bucket. You never know.
So will you be getting a Lil McDonald's Happy Meal?
