As an adult what chotkes, knicknacks, souvenirs do you buy when on vactaion at WDW?

I've collected so many cups and mugs over the years, I don't allow myself to buy anymore. The cabinets are beyond full! I've recently decided I have a shortage of sweatshirts, so last trip I bought two. I love getting things for the kitchen. When I see my Mickey-head pancake shapers in my drawer, they just makes me smile!
 
We got a blanket from the Mexico area in Epcot but only because it was a colder night and the kids had shorts and dresses on. I don't usually buy anything ecept stuff I will use; jewelry, clothing and stuff like that.
 
Kitchen stuff, mugs, t-shirts, footballs with the year's special design. Haven't gotten any ornaments, though.
 
We get a Christmas ornament every trip, and I always by a shirt from Tatooine Traders. DH and I both like to trade pins, but we buy them BEFORE we go, so I don't know if that counts or not.

I'd like to get a "passport" at Epcot and get it stamped in all the nations :) That's my goal this next trip.
 

Little snowglobes that I keep on my desk at work, and of course, pins!
 
I got totally hooked on pins. I just couldn't stop myself. i have yet to trade though. Next time deffinately.

I also collect Disney promotional videos. I have some from the early 80's and I order the new one every year. I've got the DVC videos too. And then the ones you buy in the park too. Of course.

I'm thinking about getting into snow globes, but I really have nowhere to put them=P

I collect the Carribean Beach Resort refill mugs. Even when I didn't go, my parents got one for me. We're Carribean Beach people.
 
for me, it's pins, a sweatjacket and whatever new souvenir books are available...

that's it as far as the tchotchkes go!
 
When I went solo last year, I bought a Mickey Garden Gnome, 3 t-shirts, and a few pins. Most of that went to Corey. I have never been much of an "I want" person. I see stuff that I like, but I rarely will spend money on stuff just for me.
 
I got the coolest pen from China at Epcot this year. Its black and has brass dragons going all around it, very ornamental and very heavy. I like to collect nice fancy pens and that one caught my eye.
 
I collect carousel horses and DH found one with Cinderella on it!!! I also found the wall in one of the stores (don't remember which one) that has the wall FULL of Disney princess' on carousel horses...individual pics of each one. I would love to have them all but do not have any place to put them all. DH will think it is going too far!! LOL
 
I got a new camera for Christmas and have been taking pictures of things laying about. I think I'll post some of the Disney things here that I've collected over the years, some of the more unique items at least.

I love buying things at Disney, each year they seem to have all new things.
 
I had some fun with my new camera.

First I had this drawn by an animator way back in 1994.

Also picked up a statue called "The Thinker" (hmmm, reminds me of something).

A rather nice clock.

I should say that I've been a few times.

And maybe I tend to overplan just a tad?

And maybe a little obsessed?

Do you watch Disney movies in your Disney room????
 
I don't really buy much anymore, but I will probably buy a watch this trip. My Rolex's clasp won't stay shut so now I'm afraid to wear it. Time for a cheap watch until I can send it in to be fixed.

Also, if I a cute Stitch thing I will usually pick it up. I like shot glasses as well and there's a new 4 park set that looks very cool and I'll get that this trip.

Hmm, I'm into watches, what kind do you have?
 
Another shot glass collector here. I always try to track down the more unique and rare ones I come across.

Everytime I'm at Epcot, I always say I'm going to get a custom stien made in Germany with my family crest. But I alway forget to bring a copy of the crest with me. So, one of these trips I hope to finally get that done.

Go make a copy of it now and put it in your wallet... then you may have it :)
