Any one work for McDonalds or Burger King?? What happens to leftover happy meal toys when it's time to switch?

(Any fast food restaurant employee really.)



I was wondering what happens to all the Sponge Bob happy meal toys that Burger King just switched to Spider Man. They couldn't possibly have gotten rid of ALL the Sponge Bob toys in that short of a time period. So where do they go? I want them! lol!



So if you have any idea on where they go or where to get them, please fill me in!! Thanks!!Any one work for McDonalds or Burger King?? What happens to leftover happy meal toys when it's time to switch?
they get rid of them you need to know somebody who works there you can get them for free email me you pay the shipping i can get them
We usually keep them in our storage area of the restaurant. If we run out of a toy the next time, we go back to the previous toy and hand those out until we can get another shipment. After awhile the old toys either get shipped back to where they came from or they are handed out at birthday parties. Sometimes a toy such as the beanie baby toys will re-circulate and will be brought back to happymeals.Any one work for McDonalds or Burger King??

Well what do you think is in their chicken fajitas?
they probaly keep them in case they run out of another
When I used to work there they would get rid of them like give them to the employees or go to their website and you can order some!
I guess it depends on the chain. I used to work for McD's and we had a guy who would collect the left over Happy Meal Toys every few weeks and donate them to various children in distress shelters and hospitals. Of course, he got permission from Coporate to take them *and we know he did donate them because he was in the local paper every now and then* It's nice to see the toys maybe made someone smile a bit :)
They use them for birthday parties. Also, it's nice to have extra stuff on hand if someone doesn't like the current toy, or if a child is too young for one toy, something can be substituted.



Yes, some toys run out very quickly before the promotion is supposed to be over. It does happen sometimes for very popular toys.
This was my question, you stole it. Idk maybe it was yours, but even at that it is still half mine.
I work at BK and we use them when we run out of the promotion toys or if someone wants them instead...
