If your child only had 20 Disney Dollars to spend

[ktglads]

Personally, I would love another link for my Italian Charm bracelet. I try to get one on every trip and help keep down the one-time cost of it.
As for my friends (who fall in the 20-25 y/o age range), snowglobes is one of the top choices, shot glasses (or toothpick holders) would be second and ornaments would go in third.

I have a whole wardrobe of Disney shirts/sweatshirts also. They DO eventually have to be retired. that is why I was POSITIVE that would be the "low" count category.

I don't drink coffee either !! I'm a tea or cocoa person, too. Gues that is why it just NEVER occurred to me others would still have rrom for one.

My family all voted for T-shirts. (When I originally typed that, I dropped the "r". Not very family friendly language!!!)

My reasoning was a T-shirt is something useful, and has a limited life (a plus as I see it). We have too many knick-knack around.

DD8 when asked what she's going to spend her disney dollars on always tells us that she wants a t-shirt that says something like "I went to WDW -- and I'm not kidding!"

DD6 wants a shirt she can wear to show her friends at school.

I would vote for a custom-made Tinkerbell watch from the MK! I love Tink because she is sassy, and speaks her mind without having to say a word! I wear a watch everyday, and look at it who-knows how many times a day?! So, every time I looked at it, I would think about the most wonderful place in the world...WDW!

If my 2yo dd could choose, she would probably want to bring Stitch back home with her! She has a speech developmental problem and Stitch is one of the first words she could say clearly. When we were on our Dec. cruise, she was in awe when she saw Stitch! Those are some of my favorite photos of our trip!

EVERY TIME I GO TO WDW I SAY I'M GOING TO BUY A SMALL REPLICA STATUE OF WALT & MICKEY (LIKE THE ONE IN FRONT OF THE CASTLE) EVERY YEAR I FORGET TO LOOK FOR IT. I'VE SEEN THEM IN THE VIDEO SO I THINK THEY ARE AT DTD. THIS YEAR I'M GETTING ONE. WHAT A GREAT PIECE OF A MEMORY.

I'm a scrapbooker---so I definitely voted for the scrapbooking materials. I have some great scrapbooking pages from our trip to MK and Universal in 2000 when my son was five!!!

You'll probably have to have multiple offerings depending on age. The kids are going to all want something they can wear or use right now. Watches, pens, pins, photo albums etc for the adults.

I'd like to see WDW do a photo album package that includes pictures from the photo rides at reduced prices with a minimum charge and a family picture in front of the castle or other location for the cover of the album. You give them your ID at the desk, choose which ones to go in your album and it gets delivered to your resort before you leave. My 2 cents.

I voted Scrapbook as well.

I love being able to look at my pictures with all the Disney stickers and papers I've purchased. Its a great memory book

I just got into scrapbooking in the past few months now that my DS has been born and I absolutely love it! I can't wait to introduce my little mouskateer-in-training to WDW, Mickey Mouse and all that Disney has to offer. I've been looking at some of the Disney related scrapbook items in craft stores in the area, but can't wait until we can get down to WDW again, to see what they have. I'm sure they have some really neat punches, paper and other supplies that will be great to start making up a scrapbook specifically for Disney trips. (guess I should look into remortgaging the house now... ) By the way, do they really have ear-shaped scissors?? How adorable!

 

[Fire14]

I voted scrapbook stuff to perserve my memories of trips past. Another thing I seemed to have started is a t shirt collection with year of vist and characters sigs on back.

 

[tc]

I voted "other". I've always wanted a framed print or cel from the Art of Disney store. I can spend hours in there, just dreaming of taking one home.

 

[Chim Chiminy]

I voted other because I love the framed art and posters available in the parks and DD.
I can't go to MGM without stopping by Sid Cahuenga's to see what kind of interesting posters and movie memorabilia they have available.
I have so many lithos and posters, I don't know what to do.

Need a bigger house!

 

[mousechic]

I voted Scrapbooking items. I have just started really getting into scrapbooking. I like it because it's a fun hobby and really makes just plain 'ol photo albums BORING! But to be able to get something "different" for my scrapbooking supplies would be AWESOME!

 

[bobbiwoz]

My favorite would be a coffee mug. Yes, I have oodles, including a DVC mug that we bought on our first trip "home," but I have a mug rack for display, I enjoy cups of herbal tea and the mugs take me back, and Disney is a good place to be.

[Mortlives]

I voted for a backpack. Guess I've been to too many conferences.

Kungaloosh!
Mort.

 

[DeDixie]

OOOh I like the idea of the throw! I was thinking of CD of the park music, or Drinking Glasses from the parks and resorts, or prints/pictures of family at disney or just of the parks and resorts.

 

[tn4mickey]

I voted other. If I could choose anything, money is no object, I'd go with more DVC points!

 

[NotUrsula]

Picture frames, of course; we love those, especially those lovely cherry ones w/ the discreet little black ear cutouts.

Something I always get is the small metal canisters of candy; once the candy is eaten, the canister can be reused for all sorts of things. There are two sitting in front of me on my desk right now; a tall oval one with pens, and the other is a short square one full of paperclips. The side I can read says, "Hey Mickey, what time does the 3 o'clock parade start?"

Also, just FYI, the Black and White pkg. truffles are delicious and very well priced. Everyone I know asks us to bring back a supply when we go.

 

[pintrader]
