Light up spinning toys

[sara1215]

Light up spinning toys--how much $ do these usually run in the parks? I'm pricing some on eBay to buy and bring along but wondering if I'm really saving money by doing that. Thanks in advance.

The last time I priced the spinning toys in the parks was 2007 and they were too much IMO. Hopefully someone else can give you a current price. I found light up spinning toys at Walgreens or CVS a couple weeks ago for $2.99 each. Even tho my dds are older they still like to have them and on our last night or when they tire of them, they give them to a younger child that doesn't have one.

I vaguely recall them being $15-$20. We hit the dollar stores and Target dollar bins for glow sticks, wands, etc.

The last time I bought them was a few years ago. I want to say, the one we bought was 12.49. It was the spinning Minnie Mouse. I'm sure they have gone up a bit since then and if I recall different toys were different prices. I did notice that the light up spinning toys are a bit cheaper at WDW than the Disney on Ice shows.

can't speak for everything, but my 4 year old bought a light up spinning R2D2 at star tours last november for $15.

We bought one from a cart before the night parade at MK in May, and I want to say that it was $15.

Last year my parents bought huge light up Mickey swords for my boys, and I think they said they were in the $13 range. Honestly, they were worth the money. They've been played with like crazy and they haven't broken yet - can't say the same for cheaper light up swords we've had.

DS collected those like crazy when he was little, and played with them f.o.r...e.v.e.r! I'm not sure of the exact prices now, but ours were definitely worth it! I say buy it at the park so it's a special memory.
