Parents Agree Target's New Trick-or-Treat Pail Is a Halloween Must-Have: 'Coolest Thing Ever'
Target may have officially topped its Halloween decor with a new trick-or-treat pail designed to look like one of the store's shopping baskets, with parents everywhere seemingly desperate to track one down in time for the fall holiday.
Instagrammer target_cheer, a Target influencer by the name of Raine Page, shared a sneak peek at what she declared to be "the CUTEST find" in a new video uploaded to the social media platform over the weekend, setting the clip to James Horner's "Casper's Lullaby" as she showed off the felt candy receptacle that was a near-perfect copy of the basket it was inspired by.
Parents of young children, who also happen to be fans of the megastore, were immediately enamored with the new candy bucket, with one agreeing, "This is such a cute idea ??," and another dubbing it the "coolest thing ever ??."
"Oh my goodness!!! Need!" another wrote emphatically, while someone else said, "?????? Adding to cart instantly."
Parents and teachers also saw a secondary use for the basket once Halloween has come and gone, with one commenting, "ooohhh that would be so cute for dramatic play in the classroom ????."
"These are so good for pretend play!" another agreed, sharing that they "grabbed one of them and one of the little Target vest Halloween costumes a couple of weeks ago," which her "kiddo has had SO much fun with..."
Someone else pointed out that there's multi-holiday potential, too, suggesting they could be reused for the Easter Bunny come spring. Unfortunately, everyone else appears to have had the same idea, making the item tough to track down–so here's hoping for a quick restock!
Just make sure that as you prepare to dish out the sweets later this fall, you aren't still holding onto any of the candies that have been recalled recently.
