 New online store for Disney theme park merchandise
Received this e-mail announcement from Disney Theme Park Merchandising:
We hope you had a blast during your recent Disney vacation! It was great having you here. But with all there was to see and do, you may have missed picking up a little something special. Or maybe you just didn’t have the space in your luggage!
Not to worry. Because now you can shop for some of the most popular Disney Theme Park merchandise from the comforts of home at the NEW online store, DisneyParks.com/store—the place outside Walt Disney World® Resort and Disneyland® Resort to get select merchandise created especially for Disney Parks.
So add more character to your closet; more décor to your kitchen; more toys to your playroom; or more accessories to...well...to wherever you keep your accessories. There’s something fun for everyone!
Continue the magical memories from your recent vacation at DisneyParks.com/store. And happy shopping!

I got the information about that via email. Interesting that they're putting theme park stuff up on the web. I wouldn't expect to see everything they sell in the parks there, as it might take away some of the prestige/enjoyment of buying it in the parks.

This is nothing more than a way for them to get rid of excess merchandise that they are NOT selling in their parks. It's pretty obvious...
I'm sure there will never be the variety WE would like to see, simply because the stuff that is NOT selling is precisely the stuff NO ONE wants to buy anyway.
Clever Disney...but come on...

If their merchandise wasn't so, I don't know, unappealing lately, then I'd be more excited about this... I'll give them the chance with this once more gets added to the site...

TRICIA JONES: I heard that you were going to propose to Brandi Svenning at some theme park. When are men going to learn that women want ROMANCE, not Mr. Toad's Wild Ride...
BRODIE: Hey, now, be fair. EVERYONE wants Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.

I agree. On one hand I like the ability to go back and pick up something I missed, but on the other I feel like we're losing that unique "got it at the park after fireworks on Main Street" euphoria! (Or whatever else makes you happy!)
That said, I know I'll buy stuff online and still spend my future retirement money on the next trip. It's just part of who I am!

Other sites that offer theme park items?
Aren't there other sites that offer theme park items? Kind of like a "shopping service?" Boy if there aren't, seems like a business opportunity for someone living near the theme parks....

Why not use the internet. Not everyone can get to the outlet mall to get merchandise. Smart business.

It does take away some of the fun of the exclusivity that one can only get this stuff at the parks.
However, there will always be other park exclusive merchandise so the limited offering is okay to me. It's kinda like those Hawaiian chocolates folks grab on vacation only to find them sold back home.
Sometimes you can sneak an extra souvenir in by buying after you get home, especially with the limited luggage these days.
For folks who missed getting one more souvenir for someone back home or just forgot, its a nice 'second chance'.
We Disneyphiles would know what is really from the parks.
