Cheap Disney Merchandise?

[vhoffman]

I want to buy my kids some Disney stuff to put in a surprise basket for them when we arrive. I want to include autograph books, fat pens, "smushed" penny books, Epcot passports, and other Disney stuff. I realize I can buy all this stuff once in the parks, however, I want to have a surprise bag for them when we get to the room. Also, it will save time looking for that stuff once we get there. Is there a website I can order stuff like this for not a fortune? I've seen websites that make up gift baskets with items like these and deliver them to your room, but they want way too much money. Or is it possible to order items like this direct from Disney? I've looked, these items aren't available in local disney stores.

I can't help you as far as the penny book or the Epcot passport.
But you can find lots of things locally. I found lots of Disney things at the dollar store. One was a Pooh tote bag, which I put suntan lotion, lipgloss in. I got tee shirts at a store, we are also going to Univeral so I got Cat in the Hat too. I got a regular autograph book and covered it with Mickey paper, you could just get some Disney stickers too. Big lots had some nice fat Mickey pens. My daughter has her autograph book from when she was young, she's 18 now and she is bring it. Her boyfriend wants Mickey Gloves you know the big white ones.
Keep your eyes open there is a lot of Disney stuff around.

I know you can pre-order stuff from www.giftsofalifetime.com but they are overcharging for things.

YOu might be able to call Disney directly and order the merchandise. Phone 407-363-6200 or email wdw.mail.order@disneyworld.com
