Buying case of water at resort gift shop?

[Erinmc3]

Do the resort gift shops sell cases of bottled water? If so, around how much does it cost? We are staying at POP in August and having water is a must. Checked into GG but do not plan on getting anything other than the water since we will be on dining plan. Also do not have a membership to Amazon Prime. Thanks so much!!

Hi Erin,
We just got back from a week at POP. As of now, you can buy a 24 pack of 12 oz / 355 ml bottles of Dasani in the cafeteria area (not the gift shop). It is $6.99 (same as 2 x 500 ml bottles lol). Find it in the back corner between the treat freezer and the staff door next to the baked goods (also same area as bottled drinks). The cases of water are on a shelf, and because there's only room for 4 cases, you may need to ask a staff person for more (they were able to go get some from the back for us). It was one of the best buys there for us. I started a free trial of Amazon prime but honestly couldn't be bothered as there were only a few things we needed. We found the Art of Animation gift shop did have a slightly better selection of other sundry / "grocery" type items though (I saw Jif peanut butter there, and did not see it at POP). As you probably know, it's just a short walk over the bridge. Have fun!

You're in luck. A thread got bumped with a ton of good info: https://www.disboards.com/threads/cases-of-water-from-resort-store.3592490/

Thank you soooo much for your response!! I agree about amazon prime. We have used garden grocer in the past and are thinking MAYBE we should just use them again and order milk/wine/beer. What's a $14 delivery charge when I'm already spending a small fortune in Disney...lol!
