arrival baskets?

[momandseandodisney]

I chose all my stuff from Disney shopping and a couple of things from the resort (like the mugs) and Sarah charges what the cost is retail (some of the things she found for less elsewhere) and then $25 charge for the first basket and $5 for the second.

So basically is $30 ontop retail to have her do the 2 backpacks for my boys.

heres a list of what I ordered to show how diverse she is in what she will get if you ask...

Son #1-
Mickey plush 12"
Autograph book
Tigger straw
Buzz trading set
resort keychain & refillable mug
Dash plush 12"
Cars swim tote personalized (gifts all into this)
Cars swim shoes
Cars tee
Buzz Lightyear lanyard

Son #2 -
b-day card hopefully from Buzz & Woody
Mickey plush 12"
Autograph book
Tigger straw
Buzz trading set
resort keychain & refillable mug
Buzz plush
Dash backpack (gifts all into this)
Dash personalized watch
Buzz swim shoes
Dash tee personalized
Buzz shirt personalized
Buzz swim trunks
Buzz lanyard

May I ask how much each of these 2 "suprises" cost?

Wendy,
How old are your China princesses? My dd will be 20 months old when we go. She is from Jiangxi.

I'd like ideas on what to do for her.

My daughter is from Jiangxi also, her birthdate is 3/19/04 and we are going back to Disney in Jan 08.

Some of these items we are thinking of putting into a gift basket cost as follows:

Pal Mickey $65.00
Disney trading pins start at $6.95 and go up from there, the majority of pins are either $6.95 or $8.95
Starter lanyards (a lanyard and 4 pins) are $27.00
a lanyard alone is $5
Plush characters are $13-$14...however, by the time you come, the Holiday plush will be out, those are usually $11 each.
Disney mugs $10-$14
small Tin of character cocoa $3.65
large tin of character cocoa $11
Key chains $4-$10
a cute tote bag $24-$26
fanny pack $16
personalized name badge $6
small photo album $14
large photo album $20
photo/autograph book $10.95
small autograph book $6.95
Epcot passport $9.95

Hope this helps...

These prices exclude sales tax

I think its come to just under $300. Its all stuff I wanted to get the boys but without the hassle of going out and getting it ourselves - wonderful!

They'll love bringing all this stuff back home with them and remembering a fantastic trip I'm sure

does Sarah get these baskets to your room before check-in or do they give them at desk or do they come later????

does Sara have all this stuff listed on her site with photos? Some of the things you've mentioned putting in your baskets I've not heard of before.

Thanks for any help!

No she does not - I just told her a little about my DDs and there likes and dislikes and she suggested some items. Also I browsed around Disney Shopping sites and told her what we would like too. She was great and came up with some good sugestions.

Just drop her an email (Sarah.Cubit@celebration.fl.us) and she will help with list of items and prices.

yep thats what I did - we need some stuff whilst we're there like the swim stuff and the backpacks so I just put together a list that I wanted, including logo items for our oldest who's celebrating his birthday, and she gets them all and puts it all together.

In terms of delivery I dont know - we havent finalised that yet as we're not there until Oct. She has our dates and resort name so I imagine that she will deliver to front desk who will put them in our room.
