Cool Disney Shopping

I needed to check out some of the newest merchandise in the Disney shops to find some gifts for later in the year.  So today I stopped in at the Emporium on Main Street at the Magic Kingdom. I have such fond memories of that store and it’s no surprise, I’ve been going there since 1971!

While browsing and meandering through the store, I found the absolutely most fun beach towel. It’s just so colorful yet simple and not in your face Mickey.  I like that sometimes.  It retails for $18.95.  I checked Disney Shopping online to see if it might be there, but it wasn’t. I guessing it’s only available on property.

With my pool I use beach towels all the time.  I think this one just might be a fine addition to my collection.

Also… I stopped at the cast discount store on my way home just to see what they had in stock. I go there maybe once a year just to check it out.  It’s a store where they sell out-dated merchandise or overstocked merchandise to the cast members at a discount price.  It’s not a big secret or hush-hush. Cast members can bring family or friends every once in awhile to shop there, too. Today I got the greatest deal ever on something I’ll probably never use  or need. But once you see it, you’ll understand why I had to have it.

Isn’t that great! It’s a New Year’s Eve Mickey ears  hat from last year.  And the best part is – it was under $1.00 AND because it’s my birthday month I got an additional percentage off that price. So, I practically got it for free. How fun!
