What keepsake do you buy?

So other then ears is there something else you always get to remind you of a trip.

Mine has started with the ears that is an ornament for the christmas tree. I am talking those big ones. I have three and each time I go to Disney I pick up a new pair.

I usually by a Disney T-Shirt, Hoodie, or some sort of clothes as a keepsake from my trips to WDW.

My kids collect magnets and mouse ears. I try to get an ornament.

We visit around Thanksgiving and always pick up a new ornament with the year on it for our Christmas tree.

At AK Disney sells wooden wind chimes topped with hand carved tropical birds, we have two of them in our back yard Tiki Hut. We added a carved wooden mask from Africa, allegedly, this Oct we hope to add something new along these lines.

A magnet. Maybe from a resort (if those are still made) or just of an attraction. I started doing all the countries around World Showcase (don't think China has one) and just have a few left. A cheaper way to remember all the trips and something else to look for on a future trip.

We always get a Year magnet for the fridge and try to get a Resort magnet too, provided I can find them. Never did find one at BC/YC.

My wife always buys a christmas ornament. My daughter likes pins. I don't usually buy anything.

Magnets and the re-fillable mugs! Not just the ones that you get at the resort; we also pick up the single fill ones that you can (....could, since that might have changed since I was there last!) in the parks.

We used to buy a LOT of stuff and most of it ended up either lost, misplaced, or collecting dust. So we have been trying to focus on the stuff that can be re-used when we get home.

This year, for the first time, I am also really excited to get a silhouette done on Main Street!

Mugs. I have quite a collection now. They're useful for other things too, pencil holder, toothbrushes, etc.

I too buy a Christmas ornament plus a photo album with the year on it. The photo album was hard to find last year. It sure is hard to decide on ONE ornament. Lol.

I always end up getting a coffee mug or two, something tiki related (mug, bowl, print), and/or something more retro, this past trip that ended up being the collection of attraction posters, love them!

 

[bluezy]

A Christmas ornament with the year on it, a t-shirt or sweatshirt (usually without the year), and a Dooney & Bourke bag.

It's so hard to find resort specific merchandise. We loved collecting shot glasses from all the resorts or from a specific celebration. The last one we could find was in 2011 for the 40th anniversary.
