When you’re traveling, it’s easy to make mistakes when there’s so much going on. And when you’re traveling to Disney World, that just increases tenfold.

That’s why we’re here! To help you avoid making mistakes that will cost you more money than your trip is ALREADY costing you, we have a very important reminder for you — you CAN bring items into the park with you that will save you a LOT of money. Don’t fall into the theme park trap; we know how to save you some cash!
Sunscreen is VITAL in Disney World, and while you certainly can buy it at your hotel or in an Orlando convenience store, you’ll be paying MUCH higher prices. (Location, location, location!) So be sure to buy your sunscreen well in advance online!

This is one of our personal favorites, especially because it’s water and sweat resistant, and trust us, you’ll be doing A LOT of sweating in the summer!
Water bottles are EXPENSIVE in Disney World, and while getting free cups of water is great, that cold water won’t stay cold for long. That’s where a Stanley Water Bottle comes in handy!

We love that this is lightweight and leak-resistant, and it’s easy to carry around in your park bag. It’ll also keep your drinks VERY cold, which is essential.
There’s nothing worse than being in the parks and realizing that your phone is about to die, and you have no way to charge it without sitting down inside and finding an outlet. That’s where the INIU Portable Charger comes into play!

You can purchase portable chargers in the park, but they cost about $30. Yes, they can be replaced for free while you’re in the parks, so you always have a free one, but we don’t find them to be as strong as the INIU charger. Plus, this one costs you half the price!
If you’re planning to buy some new apparel on your trip, but you really don’t want to break the bank, we’re sorry to say that buying items INSIDE Disney World likely isn’t the best bet. That’s why we recommend buying just-as-cute shirts online beforehand, such as the Cinderella Vintage Movie Box Art Poster T-Shirt!

These shirts are often just as adorable as the ones in the parks, and you’ll pay less than half the cost (sometimes even less)! Trust us, it’s worth looking!
Ears are massively popular in the Disney parks, but WOW are they expensive. If you want to grab yourself a cute pair before you get to the parks, you can grab yourself a pair like the Mouse Ears Headbands online!

These aren’t officially Disney licensed, but they look great and are fantastic for those who don’t need them to be officially Disney branded. You can also usually find SUPER cute pairs on Etsy as well, if you’re looking to support small businesses.
Not to mention that it’s a great idea to purchase groceries from a nearby store and bring snacks into the park with you to save money!
