There is a lot you can spend your money on at Disney World… food, Lightning Lanes, and merchandise, just to name a few.

We love to give you hacks to save big on your Disney vacation. It’s also important to know what is worth spending your money on at the most magical place on Earth. These are the 5 things that might feel a little cheesy to buy, but we think that you should still do it!
Resort Refillable Mugs
A Rapid Fill Mug (or Refillable Mug — the terms are used interchangeably in Disney vernacular) is an insulated plastic coffee mug with a lid. These can be refilled at Disney Resorts, and while they definitely scream “I’m on vacation” we love the practicality of these even from the comfort of you home.

It might seem a little cheesy to carry around a refillable mug with characters all over it, but there’s something about sipping your coffee out of one of these from your home. If buying these are wrong, we don’t want to be right.
Embroidered Mickey Ear Hats
One of the most iconic custom souvenirs you can get is an embroidered ear hat at Disney World! Head over to Curtain Call Collectibles in Magic Kingdom to get your ear hat personalized with a fun message or name.

We love these for milestone moments like a 1st birthday, baby announcement, engagement, or others. It’s also cute to display at home to celebrate that memory.
Minnie Ears
Outside of Disney parks, wearing mouse ears would feel pretty silly, but in the parks, they are so popular! You might be able to find a pair for your favorite ride or movie.

If you are returning to the Disney parks again, we think these are a great buy! You can wear them again and again.
Magic Shot Photos
Magic Shots might seem cheesy, but we love how they can turn out. PhotoPass photographers use Magic Shots to add something fun to your photos using Disney Characters or holiday theming!

You can purchase photos individually or you can purchase Memory Maker which will include all PhotoPass photos you have taken on vacation.
Year Ornaments
The Christmas ornaments with the year on them might not be your cup of tea with bright colors, but we love the idea of having something that will be a souvenir memorializing your trip that year. If the ones with the year on them aren’t for you, you can get one customized with the year on them instead!

So don’t feel silly about buying “cheesy” souvenirs, if they make you happy, we support you! For more Disney World tips and tricks, be sure to follow us at AllEars.net.
