What was your first DVC Merch purchase?

Nothing yet! I still feel a little embarrassed with DVC gear, especially as a non direct member.

I did get the old school 80s style Mickey WDW sweatshirt they were selling in the parks recently though. I always wanted one as a kid and never got one! WDW was simply too far away as a child; flying from the PNW to Florida was nearly unheard of outside moderately wealthy people at the time, so my first Florida trip was as an adult. And now I can buy my own darn Mickey sweatshirts!
Why embarrassed? You're still a member that got a great deal 😀
 
Somehow my thriftiness feels slightly unseemly.🤣
🤣🤣 Don't let anyone make you feel that way, we still get the most important part the rooms... and the free parking 🥳 🎉

I would be quite amused though if they were super petty and started rolling out jackets that said Disney Vacation Club Resale Member (material not as good of course) and DVC Y needed to buy it without the Resale label 🤣🤣
 

Never Bought any but have a lot. Years ago there were gifts from Prints of your home resort to other prints, Sliders, hats, pins, tote bags etc. and a lot when you went on a cruise even wooden boxes, Beach towels more tote bags, water bottles. All doubled because Castaway Cay gave nice gifts as well years ago. Now we get nothing but a bill for dues every year...... Occasionally one of the DVC sales booths will give us something other than your owners did you check out..... I have learned to walk on the other side of the path lately.
 
I have some resort specific stuff from all of the resorts we own at (shirts, ornaments, etc.) including the VGF loungefly that Genie+ has above (which I get so many compliments on), but I only have the below sweatshirt that is specifically DVC and I haven't had a chance to wear it yet.

I have that same one and haven't worn it yet, either. I actually kind of forgot about it since for some reason, I don't keep it with my other sweatshirts. I've seen it with Aulani and another resort, too.
 
Like someone else already said, we've been members for so long, I don't remember. One of the first was a BCV collared shirt I bought at the brand new BCV. Also, a "DVC member" jacket I bought at DHHIR for 1/2 price because they were changing the logo(?).
