What's on your shopping list for your very next trip? I need some Mickey hands, a new Disney print, a new Pirate flag, and a cute watch I saw last time....

I have been wanting to get a few Mickey bowls in that light blue color. Perhaps something small and cute from the glass blower in Mexico, EPCOT. There's also a vintage print from 'It's A Small World' that I've had my eye on for some time in the art shop in Downtown Disney. A good friend of mine who is also a Disneyphile has always wanted one of those Mickey pocket watches they sell on Main Street in the Magic Kingdom. I may pick that up as a Christmas present.

Hmmmm... That's a longer list than I realized.

A keychain. My daughter broke the one I got in February. :(I always buy a Christmas ornament with the year on it. I always get atleast one t-shirt for myself and one for DD. I bought a retro-ey Epcot shirt on our last trip and I want to check out the selection at MK. I always end up getting a kitchen item. I think I want the measuring cups next time. DH will of course get some of the glowy things. He can't resist. I want to try a chocolate dipped rice krispie treat. Does that count? :blush: And as for the kid... I'm sure she'll add a few plushes to the collection. :mickey:

Now that I got my first Jim Shore figurine (Stitch), I plan on getting a couple more next time.

Maybe another Dooney & Bourke bag.

Some sort of artwork or figurine.

I recently saw a Disney play snack set. It would be a great addtions to DD3's kitchen. It has a choc covered Mickey treat, Mickey ears ice cream, and even a turkey leg! We'll be going in early Dec. so that will be one of her Christmas gifts.
I also always get myself something from Mickey's Pantry, a photo album and frame, and everybody gets t-shirts, sweatshirts, and/or hats.

I saw that set last time. Really cute. Was trying to think of something to do with it now, like glue magnets on the back for the fridge or something. I know my grandchild coming in November will need a set, too!

I always keep my eye out for Tinker Bell figurines, but I haven't seen any I've had to have on the last few trips.

I would love to find some Mickey sprinkles to bring home though!

I will be getting a few new Christmas ornaments and maybe a Disney print. I got a beautiful Thomas Kinkade print a couple of trips ago. I always get a new t-shirt too. :mickey:

Wow, I thought maybe I was the only one that planned what they were going to shop for when returning to WDW! :blush: I'm soooo glad that I'm not a complete wackjob! lol!

I love to get a new watch every trip, always get a new personalized Christmas ornament & every trip I know exactly what I'm looking for before I get there! I'm really bad about impulse buys when I'm in WDW! I really want the IllumiNations CD this year! I also try to add to my kitchen collection every year, my fav there so far is my clock that I bought at The BW resort! Not so much on my list this year, so that leaves more room for those things I see that I've just got to have! :shop: :spend:

I usually get a watch each trip, too. I enjoy them all year. The ornament thing is something I wish I had started way back--would be neat to have all over the tree. Maybe I can start a collection for my grandchild when it gets here.
I sort of subversively :blush: am adding a tiny Mickey touch to my kitchen each time I go, too.
Tell me about your clock. :mickey:

Tell me about your clock. :mickey:

Oh my gosh, I just LOVE my clock! I found it hanging on the wall in one of the shops on the BW & I took it down & carried it to the CM, they looked at me as if they'd never seen it before! :scratch: Lucklily another CM came by & they knew where to find me one in a box! :D

If I knew how to use our stupid card reader, I'd take a pic & post it! :silly: Alas, my techy type peeps are all asleep so I'll do my best to describe it. It's about 12" in diameter, the basis of the structure is black metal, sort of a cobweb design, the face in the center is Mickey red, just a plain circle & representing each hour, a Mickey yellow colored ball at the end of each black metal spoke. At 12 there is a classic mickey head (same yellow color) the second hand is yellow & the hour & minute hands are Mickey's white gloved hands on the black arms! I know, very silly :silly: but I just love it! :mickey:

I have been wanting to get a few Mickey bowls in that light blue color.

I want the oven mitt in that collection and they do not make it anymore!!!! I brought one mitt during my holiday trip in 2008 went back a year later and got the towels and utensils then a month ago I got the bowls and wanted another mitt and the only one that I have seen happens to be in MK at the Main Street Bakery in the showcase...Wonder if they will let me purchase it?
Otherwise my shopping list will consist of stopping in Mitsukoshi Department Store in Japan and picking up some wooden dolls ornaments for the cars (the symbols mean safe travels while driving) also our yearly personalized holiday ornament and I hope they will bring back some license plate holders I could not find any in April and I need to replace my broken one and pins pins and more pins!!!

Great thread! Not really too sure what I will pick up this trip.....probably check to see if new David Doss print out, a t-shirt, new atenna topper, maybe a dooney bag (we will see), probably a christmas ornament and who knows what else! I usually end up with some kitchen items too!

mickeys_princess_mom
05-26-2010, 10:22 PM
It's exciting to read about other people who like David Doss, too. My husband bought me a print for our anniversary last fall, and he was there. We enjoyed talking to him, and he signed something special on our print. Magical Moment!Treasure now.

Easy question!
I always add
New coffee cups, (at least 2 per trip, usually more)
New earrings and Mickey jewelry, many per trip
And I always pick up a new purse, this time I'd love a Dooney bag
Also..coconut patties, clothing, and I always add one new kitchen item per trip. Last time it was Mickey tongs, I think the next will be Mickey mixing bowls...the blue ones!

Do you remember where you saw the play food set? That's definitely on my must-have list!

Try the Pooh shop next to the ride. I think it was at another shop too but can't remember.

Do it! They are fantastic! I haven't had one at WDW, but on my stay 2 weeks ago to Paradise Pier at Disneyland the wonderful CMs left them for an evening snack for us!

My DH and I get an ornament for each other every Christmas, so I will pick one up at WDW. I am also liking the new Vinylanimation, so maybe a new one or two of those as well ;)

Doesn't everyone plan their shopping items? :shop: DH will add to his ceramic character collection, in addition to the usual parks music cd and t-shirt. DD will probably go for the handbag, or maybe MM shorts and tees, and me...I gotta have my dated frame, all my scrapbook supplies and dated book, and another beach towel from...well who knows! :shrug: I'll just have to see which one I like! :D

Coffee mug. I've been drinking out of a large blue salt-glazed mug w/ a mickey icon for 10 years now, but a few weeks ago, a bottle fell out of the cabinet over the sink and sheared off the handle. (>sigh<) Other mugs just aren't the same, but maybe they'll have something nice at WDW.

I broke my WDW sunglasses while coaching, so that is first on my list. In addition, all of my DKs have outgrown their crocs, so we will buy them a new pair and lastly, we have decided to begin pin trading.

Guess what Kathy?! You can actually get the new silly bands at Walmart in the Jewelry department! I just got the Mickey and Friends ones Saturday! They have Cars, Toy Story, Fairies, and Princesses too! I think they were $4 and some change?

We started collecting Disney ornaments back about 1985 and now our tree is covered w/them, but I still buy 2 or 3 each year. DH will get a new ceramic figurine, and probably a print. DD usually goes for jewelry, tshirts, keychains, and sonmething for her BF :ack:, and I ALWAYS get scrapbooking supplies, something for my kitchen or bath, and any any special or anniversary items for my "WDW collection cabinet". Yes...we do plan for our souveniers, and we try not to go too much over budget. Since we've been so many times and DD is older, we find that we spend less each year. :whew:

This trip I am actually going to buy somethings for myself!:shop:

I plan on getting a Dooney & Bourke Purse, I like the Blue and Cream canvas bag. Also a Mickey watch I saw, I want to pick out some WDW Christmas ornaments too. Any perhaps anything else that might catch my eye!:deer:

Not sure what my DD is planning on this trip. Guess I will have to wait and see.

I must buy a 2011 calendar (keeps me happy all year long)! I need a new pewter Mickey key chain.
Since I will be there in early Dec., I will pick up a few x-mas gifts. Probably some Burberry or Chanel No. 5 for DD. For DS, maybe soccer related items at Epcot. I will also be looking at the Dooney & Bourke items everyone is talking about!!

I just had to follow up! We just returned 2 weeks ago & we saw so many new cool things! For the first time I didn't but a watch but DH & youngest DS both did! Of course got a new ornament, and some new toppers. My fav is the Mickey Bar! :bar: I got a Dooney & Burke Bag & I love it! I got the tan/brown hipster type! I LOVE IT! I also got an adorable little cloth Mickey bag, kind of a Hobo style bag, kind of a Bermuda short plaid with some Mickey squares! Very cute! DS's got cool shirts with Mickey & saying in various languages, oldest DS got the German & younger DS got the Japanese! Note, these aren't everywhere, saw them in DTD on arrival day, found the German version in Germany in Epcot, but Japan didn't have - so we had to make another trip to DTD for that one! My new kitchen items were a stainless coffee scoop with a Mickey glove on the handle & a spatula. And DH just had to get the new Mickey Crocs! lol

So many new cool things, if anyone has any q's I'd be happy to try & help! :mickey:

I really want a gray disney sweatshirt that says Walt disney world 2010 or something like that. Also i would really love to build a Mr.Potato head because in the past few years my parents have said no :( and of course some new pins to add to my collection.:)

07-22-2010, 05:47 PM
My most important purchases are always t-shirts, but I always look for a calendar, cds with park music, keychains, and location specific souveniers, especially if the item has the name of a ride, park, or resort. :mickey:

Oh, yes, and i almost forgot...we always get a WDW Christmas ornament specific to the year of our visit!

I always get a Christmas ornament to remember each trip, and lots of pins...DD likes to trade them, but I collect pins from the different resorts we visit, and special events.

Since we'll be there at the beginning of Dec. I'm hoping to get the Mr. potato head for my nephew (and maybe my niece, too), and the my little pony for my other niece, as xmas gifts.

I want another family sculpture from Epcot, too...

Fun. I found WDW D-rings clips at a main street MK store. I have a Sorcerer's hat and get lots of comments on it, I did not get more and regret it.
It is also time for another watch, a hat and of course, a tree ornament.
Thanks for the reminders, I put my list in the spread sheet.

It's so interesting to read how many people buy things for their kitchen. I thought I was the only one that did that. :chef:

I have a question about the mixing bowls that so many of you mentioned. How do you typically transport them home--particularily if you are flying?

So back to the question at hand. I typically don't spend alot on purses. I would rather have several cheaper ones than one expensive one. BUT I think I may have to have a D & B purse. :spend:

Going to the Christmas party--so I need a shirt or something from that.

Definately something for the kitchen.

Got to get some gingerbread to take home. So many things to get!

I would love to find some Mickey sprinkles to bring home though!
My Mom bought mickey sprinkles at the gift shop at the All Star Movies resort. They are really cute.


We're going to start pin trading this year!
I love pin trading and I buy pins almost everytime I go to Disney! It is a lot of fun.

Hm..I really don't plan what to buy, the only thing I planned to buy was my D&B bag, which I got last time I was at Disney.
