I give up!!! Where can I get...

[mrsbballref]

As most of you know, I have posted several different questions about
buying US/IOA related items for my Step-DD before the trip. I prided myself
on the goodie bags she received from "Tinkerbell" when we did WDW.
They were a HUGE hit and she still talks about them all the time. She
is not a gimme-gimme kid, so I'm not trying to head-off that. It's just
that she loves to be wearing clothes related to the park we're in,
having little things on the plane, etc.

I am getting extremely frustrated. I want to buy some goodies and
outfits for our trip, but I am striking out! I have found a FEW places
online, but sizes are extremely limited, it seems. Why am I having
such a hard time with this? Does Wal-Mart of K-Mart have anything?
How about Dollar Tree? I have only been to Target so far. But,
I have searched everywhere online. I travel all the time and rarely
have time to go in brick and mortar stores, but it seems I may have
to. Any guidance? Thanks so much in advance.

I am looking for...
a notebook or journal
a character pen
some t-shirts or outfits
flip-flops maybe
misc. little trinkets

Hey Universal... if you're listening... I'll buy your stuff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't know if you've seen this already but http://www.adventuremercantile.com has a decent range of UO merchandise

You can't find any Shrek stuff or Marvel Heroes or Dr. Suess or Sponge Bob? What characters are you looking for?

Damo - Well, yes and no...

Shrek... I have seen various Shrek things but it was boys clothes.
At one time in the past, I found some M&Ms that were Shrek and
would love to find those again. Anyone know if they were a special
promotion? Halloween or movie opening maybe?

Marvel... Again, I've only seen Spiderman and it was boys clothes,
very boy looking backpacks, etc. Hulk... same thing.

Dr. Seuss... No on this one. I have not been anywhere that has
had anything Dr. Seuss except books or movies. We have those.
I did order her a pair of Cat-in-the-Hat PJs off of Ebay. So, I
do have those.

SpongeBob... Actually hadn't thought of this one. So, good idea.
Also, I will check out the Jimmy Neutron stuff. I can usually find
Nick character stuff.

Thanks for the ideas. Anybody else been to a Wal-Mart, K-Mart of
Dollar Tree lately and picked up anything?

Here is a cute Shrek t-shirt for girls:

There is lots of other cute stuff at www.nickshop.com

Also, don't know how old your daughter is, but I know Barney stuff is around everywhere.

You can also try Unicorn stuff (for the flying Unicorn.) There is lots of cute, girly Unicorn stuff out there.

Also, for Shrek stuff, you may have better luck if you google Princess Fiona rather than Shrek.

Go to any bookstore and get Dr. Suess stuff. There is Nick stuff all over the place, and expect Shrek merchandise to get into full gear within a month or two with the third movie coming out. Wal Mart had a whole mess of Princess Fiona stuff, along with stationary and whatnot.

I picked up a really cute pink Popeye T-shirt at Walmart not too long ago. And check Michael's craft store, they have small fuzzy posters that she can color on the plane with SpongeBob or Dora etc.

Walmart usually have a good selection of Spongebob, incl stationery items pens, notepads etc

Thank you for all the great replies. I have hit what
I consider a pretty good jackpot at Wal-Mart.
I found girls t-shirts with Curious George, Betty Boop
and Popeye (long sleeve-did not buy)! Yea!

Curious George - Light pink with George having a darker
pink, somewhat glittery paint all over his hands and prints
all over the shirt. Curious George is written in a glittery
pink and silver writing. $6.22

Betty Boop - Light apple green with a pink circle in
the middle of the chest with Betty's head in it. Cute.
Not as cute as George, but still cute! $6.22

Popeye - I found two long sleeve shirts. They were
on clearance, not sure their price. Both were long sleeved
shirts that look like there is a short sleeved shirt over
a long one. One is light blue and one is light green. I
didn't buy these due to them being long sleeved.

I am going to go to the other K-mart near my house to
see if there are other designs. Again, thanks for all the
suggestions!!!!
