Are the light up souvenir sippers sold at Carnation Cafe and Cafe Orleans different from the ones sold in other areas of the park? Looking at menus, I noticed they are only $6.49 at these places and $8.99 almost everywhere else?
No -- it's a one time purchase, unfortunately. You can get free kid cup refills during your meal at table service restaurants though. And during one visit at Blue Bayou the server brought the kids new cups with the light up toys for their refills, so they ended up with 2 each. Doubt that's usual, but you never know
