Refillable Mug Poll

[Mickeefan]

I want to clarify my position. I voted for "When the mood strikes me and I like the new design". I just returned from a visit and did not purchase a new mug. I much prefer the individual resort mugs to the Year of A Million Dreams mugs. I did not take any mugs that were purchased earlier, either. I only purchased drinks seperately when I really wanted one. I only bought a drink at Pop Century 3 times, I think. I drank water other times. I will admit to buying a bottle of water and then refilling it with water at the soda fountain.

I also voted the same. I have lots of WDW resort mugs, some of which have made more than one trip to WDW. However, we are staying in DVC resorts more and more and the mugs are too bulky to carry all around the parks just to hold my morning coffee. We purchased disposable paper cups for our coffee instead on the last two trips.

I don't know if I will be buying a mug again as I really don't like the new designs. Part of the charm of the mugs was because of the uniqueness of the resort's design. I don't need another generic souvenir.

We buy mugs every trip. They are part of our plan, and sometimes my only souvenier .

I purchase the mugs based on the decoration design. If I like it, I buy it, but will barley use it while I'm there, its just to have to bring home.

If I am reading correctly all the resort mugs are the same now? We are doing a split stay and I was worried I would have to buy 2 sets of mugs. I am glad if I can save money but am a bit sad as we are staying at the POLY for the first time and I wanted a mug from there!!!

I'm not a soda drinker.. I just have an obession with the mugs. lol.

We did it for a Beach Club trip but I don't find it convenient at most resorts. Also, as another OP pointed out, they don't hold much. We make our own coffee and have 2 ltr bottles of soda and refillable water bottles in the room.

I voted every trip, but it has nothing to do with the "rules" and everything to do with the fact that I do not feel like packing 5 mugs in my luggage when we fly down there. As it was, my luggage was over the weight limit last time.

Plus, we use the mugs regularly at home and they are nice souvenirs.

Dont you have to pack them going home...whats the difference....

We bought mugs when we stayed at CBR and I brought them back and used them again the next year - so shoot me.

We bought new mugs when we stayed at Pop but only stayed there once so they've only been used once.

Next trip we are staying offsite so no mug issues...

Well, this is a tricky question. I buy new mugs every year because of the fact that Disney could change the design of the mug. As well, I re-use my mug when I get home so it's not a waste. I personally, don't care if people bring back their old mugs.

honestly, I ca'n't answer the question per se. We've never purchased them before, but will be doing so this next trip with the deluxe DDP. Curious to see if they actually save us anything, or how big they are. Does anyone know how much they hold (ml)?

 

[kimsuenew]

I only buy them when my old one doesn't match the current style. I always bring my old mugs back to use during our trips.

**DISNEY GETS THEIR COKE PRODUCTS FOR FREE**

It costs Disney 5 cents for each cup of soda they sell....for the cup, that's it. Coke is a huge sponsor and donates their product to Disney.

Everytime I fill up my refillable mug, it doesn't cost Disney a thing.

WOW! That makes it OK then?

It's funny how people justify stealing

I'm not justifying stealing, that would be wrong. All i'm saying is that it will be on their conscience not mine.

 

[Shmily1]

We've never bought a mug. We don't stay at the resort enough to use it

 

[dizkids]

Wow i have a collection and cant seem to throw them out. My kids use them in the summer with their friends. Works for me since they chat about "oh remember staying at....."

I definitely prefer the new smaller size with the smaller base to fit into car cup holders : )
