NEED a chocolate Frog...going to WDW this weekend

[Goofy&Sleepy]

Will be flying in late Friday -early Monday . DD7 has asked for a chocolate frog from SANTA. I can order online for $20+++ (or $50 from US & get 5). We were there in May & NOW it's on the LIST. Is there a way to have DH drop me at US & I run into a store that has them? Probably too much trouble as we will be pretty limited on time as flying to/from Sanford....

I would pay the $20 and have it shipped to my house. DH and went to IOA for the morning on a recent trip - just to buy our boys some candy from the HP candy shop. By the time we drove over from Disney, parked, walked into the park, got the candy, and repeated all the steps listed in reverse, 1/2 of our day was gone.

I would enjoy my time at Disney and pay the few extra dollars to have the candy shipped to me.

you can also order the chocolate frogs www.jellybelly.com

there are the same as the ones you buy at honeydukes.
and, they have the cards in them.


i live close to the jellybelly factory and buy mine there.
i used to pay $1.89 each but they went up early this year to $2.49

a few of my friends order them online.
don't remember how much they are online but check out the price in case it is a better price/deal than ordering from the UO site.

just a thought.
went to the site and see the prices have been raised for the holidays.
$2.99 now here http://www.jellybelly.com/search/go#w=chocolate frogs&asug=choc

Macraven- those chocolate frogs seem to be made from different molds, are they the same size as the WWoHP ones? It's a good alternative, but they also lack the awesome box.

OP, there is a store at CityWalk that sells Potter merchandise. I'm not sure if they sell the frogs, but I imagine they would.. you could call CityWalk's guest services and find out. If so, there's a guest drop-off where your husband can wait while you run in and grab it. Shouldn't take more than 20 minutes, and you won't even have to pay to park.

I was just there and I believe I saw the frogs in the Universal store in CW.

That would be real easy to go up the stairs at drop off and walk over to the store and back.

Can you buy those at the universal store in the airport? I thought you could.

sunshine, no box but they do have the cards in them.

to the pp, yes, try the Universal store at the airport.
maybe you could call them to see if they have the frogs there.
you could buy them once you land so you will not have to figure out how to get to the darkside to buy them then.

same goes for calling the University Store in CW.

I believe the Universal store in Orlando International Airport sells them as well. It's worth a call to them to check and would save you shipping or an extra trip.
