If you missed the news, All Hallows Geek and Splash of Spooky have all the details you need about the release.
As a girl who grew up in the 90s, these are a huge part of my childhood. I’m still not sure how I managed to bring a full set from 1991 with me into adulthood…but I am grateful because they’re such a hot commodity these days!
I’m, of course, hoping to get my hands on the new set next week. Until then, I’m appreciating all the small businesses out there who have made fun products based on their love of these 90s Halloween icons. Check ’em out!
13 things you need if you love the McDonald’s Halloween pails

If I still worked in an office, I would snap these up SO fast for my name badge! Pick your favorite pail design, and these also get bonus points for glowing in the dark. GET ONE HERE
McDonald’s Halloween Pail Keychains—Sew Snarky Designs
There was one year when the witch pail went purple, so I had to share at least one item paying homage to that! These keychains are the perfect flair for a purse or backpack. GET ONE HERE

Probably the most unique item on this list. Keep a flask of your fave fall drink (spirited or spiritless!) on you in this fun flask. GET IT HERE
