Pareo/Wrap Question

[LCTsMom]

Does anyone remember how much the Mickey head beach pareo (wrap/skirt) cost onboard the ship?

Any info is greatly appreciated.

We bought it at Castaway Cay (don't remember seeing it on the ship, but I didn't shop there much). I think it was either $12 or $14.

I got a couple of nice ones in St. Martin for $7.50 apiece.

Thanks for the info. I found one on eBay but the seller wants $25. I thought I had seen it at WDW a few times, and it was not that steep at all. I am trying to be savvy (for once!)

I bought one in MK in October and I'm pretty sure it was $20.

What is this? Does anyone have a photo of it?

They sell them in Treasure Ketch as well. IN the back near the swimsuits. Also on seas days, they would set up stands near the pools that had swim related items, and they sold them then as well.

I bought one from the stand up near the pool in Jan. I don't remember the exact amount, but $16 seems to stick in my head. I know it wasn't $20 or I wouldn't have bought it.

HTH!

It's a big rectangular piece of fabric (sometimes with fringe) that you can wrap and wear as a skirt or even a dress. You wrap it different ways over your body. They are often used as coverup skirts to be worn over swimsuits. Do a search on ebay for pareo or wrap and I'm sure you'll see what we are talking about. They come in all sorts of prints and colors. Hope that helps.

Here is what pareos look like....we found really cheap ones in the island (not Mickey) but beautiful ones on the 7 day cruise.

Can the Mickey ones be found at WDW?? Does anyone have a photo of the Mickey ones?

The Mickey head pareos can be found at WDW. I have seen them in the All Star Resort gift shops as well as Caribbean Beach and others. I believe you can also find them at the tropical gift shop near the Aladdin ride. They have beach wear and Caribbean themed items in that store. I think Summer Sands in Downtown Disney also sells them. It's been a while since I have looked for them at the resots but I am sure they have them other places as well.

This is the one that I found on eBay:

If I recall correctly, the ones at WDW were slightly different but also very nice.
