how about some standard issue lime green dis meet ribbons?

Ribbons or buttons imprinted with the DIS logo would be and so would official DIS antenna toppers.


I like Birnbaum's and Rita Aero's guide books.

Good luck with the shop Dorothy.

How about my tag: DIScovering DIS magic! It captures the feel of this site and Disney for me. I can hardly wait! Thanks again. Good luck Dorothy!

I really like "Do you DIS?"

Another item that might be fun:

the little waterproof storage thingies for pools and waterparks (you know- on a string, and can hold keys, passes, money). Kinda like this:

That is scary, Dorothy!!! (I think these things are great, and one of those things you can never find if you're looking for one...)

Love the idea of DIS merchandise! Lime green tees would be great. Only advice I can give as far as clothes are concerned, get good quality. You know like the tees that you purchase at WDW, how they last forever. You will get repeat customers on these type things.

Or if you have tees with other colors, make the writing in lime green on front AND back so all DISers can be spotted coming and going.

Good Luck!

What about "badge wallets" like these:

You could hold money, credit card, park passes, room keys, a pen... all in one little holder. I have one I got at a trade show years ago, and I love using it when I travel!

 

[KathyTX]

What about those neck wraps filled with the absorbant poly beads, the ones that you soak in water to cool your body. Here's one:

These would be great for anyone going to WDW when it's hot (I know, it hardly ever gets hot there! ) They would also be good for WISHers on those long walks, or anyone who wants to stay cool! These could be made in lime green, DIS logo'd, possibly made by local crafters somewhere...

Congrats on the new "job"

Now, I vote for pins. The metal kind!

 

[NHAnn]

WOW...did someone say SHOP?!?!?!

Lots of great ideas, I love it!!!

 

[cruisnfamily]

I vote for hats!

"bucket" style
"safari" style
baseball caps
etc, etc


Also, will there be a kids line? We have to outfit the little ones in DIS merchandise too!

 

[Seahag]

Wow !! you all are *full* of great ideas !!

here are mine just for the record:

1.) keychains ( I love this idea)

2.) Shirts, but simple, maybe with a BIG lime green ribbon on the back & a smaller one on the front ? I mean, anyone who is anyone, will know what it means ! LOL


3.) lanyards !

also, don't forget the Universal side of the board - anything being done for me, oops, uhhh, *ahem* I mean them ?
just a thought

Love it - best of luck & can't wait to shop!!!!

 

[megaelch]

after all there are hundreds of DIS members going to Disney every year and the connections vouchers seem still be an absolute favourite item for the vacation.. so maybe you can fix a deal with Disney to sell them here on the board ?? I would really love to pay 1 USD more than connection charges without all the trouble and selling restrictions and stuff.and help running the boards this way.. i am sure you can sell thousands of them without any problem ín a few weeks

Oh yes and don`t forget to make some nice pins !!!!

When everyone pictures lime green are you thinking
fluorescent LIME GREEN
or
regular lime green. It's not this color, but it's NOT fluorescent. I don't care for neon!!!!

 

[Canadave]

Great to hear you are trying to address the 'shipping to Canada' problem. As someone who has ordered an item from WDW (it was only available there and it was a special gift for my DW) and paid the shipping, $100 U.S. ($158 Canadian) on a $125 purchase , I am looking forward to paying a reasonable cost to receive some DIS merchandise.

Lots of great ideas. I would like to see autograph books. I haven't been able to find any outside WDW in many years & have been looking. Photo albums & picture frames to fit the Cruise line photos that are 6x8. I think I read onthe boards that Ritz/Wolf Camera has a few (frames) in that size, so they must be made. I need a new fanny pack & want one that will hold a water bottle also (but not cost 50. or be huge like a hiker's pack). Last request, that there be some subtlety to some of the merchandise. Some might want a big DIS logo, but I prefer just the green or a small logo. Other DISers will know who I am just from seeing the color (like the person above who had lime green ribbons on their luggage & was recognized).

I just stopped in to say Congratulations! to the poster formally known as d.kurz. I hope you have a great time with your new endeaver! I wish you all the best for a grand opening and a successful run of it!

 

[frannn]

meal vouchers and DIS totes? Count me in! I bet even people outside the DIS would want to purchase some of these items. I would think a good idea would be to do a search on these boards on what most people forget to bring, or consider a "must bring", or is a snappy new lifesaving product, and make DIS versions to sell here. No need to look on ebay, dollar stores, Walmat, etc. How about DIS rain ponchos, mister fans, etc? I feel this needs repeating....MEAL VOUCHERS!!! (So sorry for the shouting)

 

[MaMudduck]

I'm with frann, meal vouchers......I was going to suggest that on my previous post....but I was too shy. If you check the Budget Board I'm sure you'll find lots of things disers want to buy.


(frann- you still show on my PM's tracking, as not having picked up an old PM I sent you )
