Retail Therapy-Disney Merchandise Around My Town

I have seen so many wonderful Disney products while I've
been out and about Christmas shopping that I thought I'd
start a thread to highlight some of my favorite.

First store to kick it off is my local Walgreen's!

yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

When I first spied these great plastic Mickey & Minnie glasses
I grabbed 2 right away! Good thing I did because when I went back
there was only 2 left...These glasses light up with a push of a
button on the bottom and the lights dance like starbursts for
about one minute. The batteries are 3x1.5 and can be replaced.
Best yet is the price...2 for $5 !

Next up is this Mickey Head made with light up tubing.
The box is slim and it would be so easy to pack in my
suitecase for a trip to Disney! I picked one up to save
just for next year so we can decorate our resort room,
Mickey Style! The price is only $7.99

I think all my friends have one of the solar flower pots
that came out this summer. I love this spin on it even
more! Assorted Disney characters were available and
even under the store lighting, they were moving back
and forth! An easy stocking stuffer for your Disney fans!

Please feel free to add your own tips and pics of any super
Disney items you've added to your Santa list...

What's your favorite store at the holidays to find

We just happened to be in the area of the San Francisco Disney Store this morning! I have NO idea how that happened sarcastic The store is 2 stories, and they had the usual merchandise, plus a nice selection of Christmas stuffs, and a section that was all San Francisco-related!

They had hanging snowflakes in the windows that had Mickey heads on them!

I got a box-set of ornaments, and a pin with the Golden Gate Bridge as the backdrop for Mickey & Minnie. Smile

I bought a few more Disney ornaments and one Rudolph at KMart today. There were so many things I wanted to buy. I'm going to try my luck with the after Christmas sales.

I was at Walgreens after work and looked for the tree. They didn't have this one but had one with Cars. It wasn't on sale. It stayed on the shelf.

I bought a Disney Christmas ornament at the Hallmark store about a month ago. It was last year's ornament and on sale for 50% off. It was Woody's guitar from Toy Story 2.

To me, the words "retail" and "therapy" don't go together at all. The correct term would be "retail torture."

On the other hand, I do love me some Mickey/Disney merchandise.

I think I need to make a very quick commando run to the nearest Disney store to see what kind of T-shirts and stuff I can find for our next trip.

I love the Hallmark decorations!! I have the Lion King one and the Cinderella one on my desk at work (along with a Alex Ovechkin Mr. Potato Head!!). Gives me a little bit of Disney to get my through the stress at work!
