It’s almost the weekend. How’s the shopping cart looking?

I know that you’re trying to look for the best deals and make the smartest purchases when it comes to Disney souvenirs. To that point, we’ve rounded up some of the best ones we could find from Amazon! Let’s dive right in!
In the battle of roller coasters, it seems like there is a clear winner when we’re talking about the newest additions to Disney World. Yes, TRON Lightcycle / Run opened AFTER Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind (sheesh — these names are a MOUTHFUL!), but it seems like people favor the EPCOT coaster over the Tomorrowland ride in Magic Kingdom. In fact, one of the exclusive TRON souvenirs in Magic Kingdom is totally unavailable right now…and it’s NOT because it sold out.
Tomorrowland
Tucked away in the Tomorrowland Launch Depot, Disney hosts a special TRON Identity Program where you can customize your own TRON-inspired action figure at the Grid Digitization Portal. While this activity is still relatively new, it seems to be a rather unpopular souvenir. Recently, we noticed that all of the TRON Identity Program “Portals” were closed. What’s going on with this souvenir?!
Okay, serious question: can you ever really have TOO many Disney mugs?
Mugs
Trick question! The answer is “no!” Disney mugs are something that we pretty much all collect, after all. These are probably among the most useful (and more affordable) of Disney souvenirs, whether we use them for drinking our morning coffee, settling in with that cup of hot chocolate on a cold wintry day, or convert those mugs into pen holders (guilty!). So we’re always on the lookout for more mugs. We guess that’s why a good thing Disney just dropped some brand new mugs online.
The EPCOT Festival of the Arts will be here before you know it.
2024 Festival of the Arts
The festival begins on January 17th and runs through February 24th and features a variety of food booths dedicated to the artistry of food, actual artists selling their works, the Disney on Broadway concert series, and even a brand new Disney on Broadway exhibit at Communicore Hall. However, one of the things that most folks get excited about when it comes to the Festival of the Arts is that there’s usually a popcorn bucket devoted to everyone’s favorite purple dragon, Figment. Well, Disney just revealed this year’s Figment popcorn bucket!
How are your New Year’s resolutions coming along (especially those about your shopping habits)?
Disney merchandise
I know that with the new year, you are trying to make the smartest purchases when it comes to Disney souvenirs. To that point, we’ve rounded up some of the best ones we could find from Amazon! Let’s dive right in!
Target has some GREAT deals on Disney outfits — and you have to HURRY! The sale section is full of great deals, but you have to dig around if you really want the goods. Luckily, we did the work for you!
Target
We found some of the BEST deals on Disney outfits, and they’re all on sale on the Target website! You don’t even have to leave your house to take advantage of these sales, so come with us and let’s see what’s available now.
Look, we get it. When you’re climbing in and out of the Space Mountain rockets, the last thing you want is some fussy dress or flappy skirt. And when you’re traversing all over EPCOT under the scorching rays of the relentless sun, as they so nicely put it on Living with the Land, you don’t want to wear a layered look with multiple parts and pieces. You probably want athletic shorts, a simple tank top or t-shirt, and a good old pair of sneakers. Sorry, Mickey! But we can’t all look that good in Disney World.

But there are exceptions to every rule! So even though we just told you it makes the most sense to wear comfortable clothing to Disney World, there is one park where that special outfit might deserve its chance to shine.
MagicBands are not required in Disney World, but they can help make your trip easier as they can be used to scan into the parks, scan into Lightning Lane, unlock your hotel room door, and charge purchases to your hotel room.
MagicBand+
PLUS, they can interact with various elements around Disney World to add a little bit of magic to your trip. Try waving at the Fab 50 character statues around the park, and pay attention to your MagicBand during attractions and fireworks shows. You might just experience a light show and some special haptics! [Read more…]
