Weโll let you know how to grab this BK Halloween food deal, where you can find the new Burger King buckets (itโs not going to be easy, unfortunately: itโs only available in four cities), and even give you a comparison of the BK food deal versus other fast food restaurant offers.
Weโve been keeping track of all the Halloween deals that you should know about โ including costumes, decorations, and food. For more smart shopping tips and savings hacks, text HACKS to 57299.

Burger King Halloween buckets will arrive in four cities on Friday, Oct. 13 at the price of $1 each.
This year, the Burger King Halloween buckets will start selling in Nashville, Tenn.; Las Vegas, Nevada; Charlotte, N.C., and Atlanta, Georgia, on Oct. 13. Each bucket has a black background with white glow-in-the-dark โghost peppersโ surrounding it.
Each Burger King Halloween bucket costs $1, and they will be available until Halloween or until they run out of supplies.

Youโll grab a cheaper Halloween bucket from Burger King when compared to McDonaldโs.
This year, the McDonaldโs Halloween bucket will be the toy for the McDonaldโs Happy Meal between Oct. 17 to 30. McDonaldโs has confirmed that the only way to receive a Halloween bucket is through a Happy Meal (starts at a price of $4.99), so you wonโt be able to purchase one separately.
That means the Burger King Halloween bucket will be cheaper since you donโt have to purchase a meal that costs around $4-$5 to receive one. Of course, if youโre already getting a Happy Meal, you will technically get a Halloween bucket for free.
Weโve got the skinny on all the comparisons between McDonaldโs Rewards and Burger King Rewards programs to know which will save you more.
