The Mug...... a little funny and an observation....

[dannysmommyval]

*this isn't to start trouble about re-using at WDW, I wouldn't do that, I am just asking about my observation and sharing a laugh I had today, thanks*

We came back in April proudly possessing our refill mug. I love it, carry it all the time for my coffee, my son uses his all the time.

Well, he was in the kitchen and I heard him yell MOMMMMMM what did you do?!?! :scared1: I didn't know what he was talking about - apparently he was mad at me for washing the cup too hard because the color was coming off in little blotches. I looked more closely and saw that they were little mickey heads. I laughed, I told him it was doing it by itself. Poor kid thought I messed up his cup. :sad2:

Then I got thinking... do these things lose their color in certain spots to prevent people from reusing them after a certain period of time? Tricky....

Anywho... are these supposed to lose their color or AM I scrubbing it too hard?:confused3 If I am I need to admit to it I guess. lol But then again - I did tell him to wash his own darn mug...:rolleyes1

Thanks if you know the answer. :)

Well, I guess either I haven't washed mine that often or that hard...I guess I will have to try it:) Nice surprise tho.

Interesting.... I guess I don't use mine much.

I have mine from last summers vaca and use it all the time. I put mine in the dishwasher and it still has all its pictures.

I also still have mine from our trip in 2003. Although it has faded a bit it still has all of the picture.

It wouldn't surprise me though if Disney found a way to do this.
