I'm not a big shopper and to me the gift shops all kind of look like they have the same stuff, except for the Animal Kingdom anyway. For those of you who are a little more shop-oriented, are there any "must-see" gift shops in any of the resorts or parks?
One that comes to mind is the gift shop at AKL Jambo House and also the one at Comtemporary, although the one at the Contemp. is separated into three or four different sections, but taken as a whole they have a wide selection of items.
I liked the one on the Board Walk. We found a lot of stuff we hadn't seen in others.

I am the wrong person to ask this question to. I have never seen one I did not like!!! I do have a few favorites though, like Mase, the one on the Boardwalk, MouseGears, Mickeys of Hollywood, all of them on the right hand side of Main Street when you are walking into the park, both Christmas Shops, Bou-Tiki, Most of them in Animal Kingdom and a few more I am sure I am not remembering at the moment.
I like Mouse Gear at Epcot and Disney's Days of Christmas at DTD.
Good point about the Christmas shops, I love those and I'm not even much of a shopper.
Downtown Disney Pin Traders store.... but that goes without saying!

I pretty much love looking at them all. Mouse Gears is definitely one of our favorites. We recently visited the Contemporary one for the first time and I was impressed with it also, unless it was just "new to me"! 
MouseGear is my personal favorite. Not "lose yourself" big like Downtown Disney but plenty to choose from. Can't wait to spend more time there in May!!
I agree that alot of them have the same stuff but they all also seem to have something that is different. I don't really have a favorite but ones that stick out to me are any of the big pin ones... MouseGears at Epcot... The art store at Epcot...world of Disney
I like MouseGears, Art Of Disney at DTD, World of Disney, the Emporium, and the villain looking store in HS on the left side of Sunset Blvd as you're heading towards ToT. ...then again, I do LOVE shopping! so I can find something anywhere!
I LOVE Days of Christmas in DTD! One of my favorites. I agree with the Contemporary. They just seem to have different items than you see in every other store. One that i absolutely have to go into every single trip (who am i kidding...i go into it multiple times just to look) is the villains store in HS.
