When Downtown Disney underwent its transformation into Disney Springs it was a somewhat controversial move. Many people didn't think that Disney should have added the big luxury brand stores into the mix and felt like it just turned the area into a big shopping mall. Personally, I was thrilled with the additions because I don't live in an area that I get to visit those types of stores. Sue we have a mall where I live, but it's pretty small and doesn't carry high end goods like you can get in big cities. That being said, I don't think my shopping habits at Disney Springs have really changed. I browse the high end stores, but where I'm spending my souvenir money is still Tren-D, World of Disney, and Once Upon a Toy.
I'm wondering if your shopping habits have changed? Are you buying from the high end retailers? Have the sorts of souvenirs that you bring home become different?
