What was your best Disney purchase?

[Honeymooner04]

When we were there in May I got a picture frame that has foam around the outside to display pins. It was the last one at the store and I only saw it at one store. I love it and would love to get another one to display more pins but I haven't seen them anywhere else. I'm going to look again when we go back in Oct.

I love Tink!! So, I try to get a Few small Tink items when we are at WDW or DL.

Our 2003 trip to DL I couldn't find anything I liked or could afford. Till I found a Plush Minnie dressed in a Tink Costume at first I thought it was sort of weird??

But Dh said Buy It!! Now it is one of my favorites because it is so querky!!

On our last trip we returned home as new Disney Vacation Club members. Now that's a souvenir! Looking forward to DL and WDW for years to come.

I've seen that Minnie plush too! At first I thought it was a little strange but part of me really wanted to buy it. I should on my next trip! lol

I know it is for pin trading, which I don't do, but I have to wear an ID every day at work, so last school year I wore it on my Disneyland lanyard! I retired the lanyard over the summer...after it had been a year since our visit.

This summer we went to Colorado. I was sad that I couldn't find a usable lanyard anywhere...I'd thought of starting a tradition of buying one for each each. The only one I saw was at the Downtown Aquarium in Denver...and it had a huge clunky velcro closing at the back of the neck.

Ah, well, this will be just a Disney tradition...can't wait to go again to get another lanyard.

Second best...a photo of my family in CA. I have it on a shelf at work...it makes gloomy winter days less gloomy!

Um what haven't I bought? LOL I cherish my Pinnochio snowglobe I got from the store on main street. It's just my absolute favorite, I've never seen it anywhere else.

We bought the 50th Anniversary train set, the big gold one, last year. It's really neat.

This year I bought a print of Thomas Kinkade's Disneyland's 50th Painting. I got a nice frame for it. I love it, would like to have an actual PAINTING of it, but that was A LOT more money!

I really love all the things I get from there. I'm a big disney shopper!

Are the Thomas Kinkade prints still available??? Suggestions on where to find them if they are would be greatly appreciated Our trip is fast approaching so I hope I can still find the print

Thanks!!! Great thread!!!

It was the whole magical trip for me. I came from the North Pole Alaska so it meant alot to get to go to Disneyland.

 

[mermaidlagoon]

The Thomas Kinkade 50th print should still be available. I suggest the Disneyana Art Gallery in New Orleans Square in DL and I believe you can also purchase it from the Disneyana shop on Main. St. in DL or World of Disney in Downtown Disney. Last week I saw this print being sold in a local mall at a Thomas Kinkade store. Good luck!

It was our first family trip in May, we went a little crazy buying....I'm a huge Christmas person, so the first thing was a ornament for my tree......then I went crazy from there, 50th Anniversary plate, jacket (for myself), Grumpy shirt for my ds, 50th ears & regular ears, POTC glass, 2 mugs, towels, scrapbooking supplies, 2006 grad hat for dd. Tink lamp for dd b-day (bought it without her knowing).....watch...and the list goes on. Oh did I mention we had to buy a new carry on bag for all our purchases.

 

[DianeL]

Thanks on the print!!! I'll jot those 2 store names down on my shopping list so I don't forget to look there. Can't wait!!!!!

Intsmom, I think one of your posts was the first thing I read on the DIS, because I remember looking at that picture of you and your boys in matching t-shirts and golden Mickey ears, and thinking "Yeah! That's the kind of experience I want to have there!" It just screams Disney, happiness and love, it's a beautiful photo.

I got a small bag/purse from DL that I use all of the time. It was around $20 and I think it was for the 50th. I am not a purse person, but I love this bag because it fits my checkbook, glasses, keys, snacks, and has a spot for a cell phone.

About ten years ago, I bought the Peter Pan snow globe. It is the Pirate ship, with Peter and the rest of the characters inside the globe. I would say that is the best thing from the park. But My Disney Signature Collection dolls are my favorite Disney things.
