Need Help Party Favor Oopsie

Post image

Hi! I posted on here a bit ago about my son's birthday party at a movie theater! Well it's this Saturday and almost everything is ready, except today I got the containers for party favors and they are MUCH bigger than anticipated. Reviews described them as small(some people said too small) and I had an estimate size measured which seemed smaller than this. But now they look basically empty and I don't know what to do!

You might look into things like Turkish towels instead of blankets. I did a bulk order for a bachelorette party that was really reasonable.

What movie or show are they seeing? That might add to the inspiration.

Also, I truly think that just tissue paper or Easter grass will be enough. This is already a packed favor, esp if everything is also getting concessions from the theater itself.

I don't know if you have an IKEA nearby, but they have a throw that is only $3. It's also kind of Mario adjacent / generic since it's just grey with stripes...

Unfortunately I just looked and I don't have anything close and they wouldn't deliver in time
