Pen light or pocket flashlight for looking at park maps afterdark.

A baseball hat....when i am ready to go to the parks and dont wanna take the time to do my hair.

Gloves and a toboggan. We were there last January and it was very cold. The temp was about 40 degrees one day. Since we are from Ohio we figured Florida would definately be warmer than home. We had to buy gloves and hats at the park, which were very expensive. We will be going back Dec. 12 - 20 and I will be packing warmer clothing this time around.

A pair of scissors to cut the mole skin.
We had to buy mole skin one year and though the store lent us a pair of scissors to cut it with, they were dull and would not cut.

We always remember to pack the following: clothespins, tip envelopes, zip-loc bags, tickets, photo I.D., sunglasses, baseball hat, rain ponchos, an extra pair of walking shoes (in case it rains), and binoculars. In the cold months, we pack layers (sweatshirts and jackets) and gloves. On our last trip, I wished that I had packed thicker, warmer socks.

Tape. We had to use sticker to hang up the birthday banners and streamers. It worked though.

 

[wuv tigger]

cost $8+ @ mousegear ... had generic @ home which cost $2.50

I always try and remember to pack a small nightlight for the bathroom. I also take along the laundry tablets and dryer softener sheets that I have cut in two. My spouse won't travel without a roll of duct tape and it has been very handy most of the time. It works well as a lint brush, holds plugs into the wall sockets, works to hold the drapes shut on those mornings we want to sleep in and a small piece held the side of my sun glasses together until we could get to an eye place and have the tiny screw replaced.

A can opener. I brought cans of tuna and some mayo packets and was going to make that for lunch a couple of times. But I forgot the can opener, so I wound up bringing them home! Oh well.

 

[bunnyfoo]

Aloe lotion for sunburns and an eyeglass repair kit

 

[chirsty'smom]

The Sunshine State CAN be cold in Dec/Jan so don't forget to pack those jeans and light jackets. 2 yrs ago we were at Disney on the 27th - SOOOOOOOOOOO cold there were NO Ice Cream stands open ALL DAY! Wished we had something to cover our ears/fingers!!! Gloves are OUTRAGEOUSLY expensive at WDW.

nyquil, lol sorry but it was the best $8.00 I spent on vacation! I was really sick the day I left but didn't think it was going to develop into a full blown cold, so I only brought tylenol and cough medicine and that wasn't enough, needed the NyQuil.

When I was there in January the change in the air from NY for FLA was so much that I got a terrible sinus infection- I couldnt even go up the elevators because of the pressure in my head- I spent so much money on Sudafed that I always bring that & nasal spray from now on. & bug spray, this sugust there were so moany bugs on our balcony at the BW that we couldnt even sut there- I cought a botle for $10-- isn't that crazy?? & i sprayed 2 towels & left them out on the balcony so that we could enjot the fireworks with out the gross love bugs. Oh one more thing-- johnson & johnson blister band-aids they are AMAZING!! I for those of you that bought gloves for that crazy price in WDW- you are very lucky- I would have paid anything for glocves when we went New Years Eve one year- WDW was sold out of gloves- they would get random boxes of plain black gloves from Kmart that they were selling. & there were no wool hats of blankets to be found- Mexico & Norway were BOTh sold out... imagine how much money Disney wade on those $100 blankets... ) have fun!

 

[tinkerbellmagic]

My old broken-in gym shoes - I swear I would have paid $200 to have them instead of the newer shoes I "thought" were broken-in -

The wrong shoes can ruin a vacation at WDW, scissors to cut the moleskin, more moleskin lol, and more of those Otis Spunkmeyer individually wrapped muffins. The muffins are great to cure those hunger pangs in the morning and to tide you over til you can eat something more nutritious.

A small bottle of dish soap to wash out the "unlimited soda mugs" in your sink.
