When we went to Disney World growing up, my parents always told my brother and I we could have one souvenir from our trip. This was an important decision to make-- one item to remember our whole trip by! Sometimes, it was a stuffed animal, sometimes a shirt. As I got older, usually a coffee mug :)
Not much has changed. BUT on this last trip, I got a full HAUL. Here's how:
A couple months before our Christmas trip to Disney World in September, I was scrolling on Instagram and came across a giveaway from @thedisneykrops, a Disney account of a fun couple I follow, celebrating reaching 13K followers. I love their account: they are the sweetest couple, they post a #verseoftheday with a Disney background everyday, and they have the coolest line of Disney apparel and accessories! I was excited for them, and I entered.
and then I won a $150 Disney gift card!!
This was me:

Then this:
It was the best! day! ever! I don't think I'll ever stop thanking Nick and Aleta, The Disney Krops!
So on our Christmas trip this year, instead of one souvenir, I got FOUR! ;)
Here's my haul:
The first thing I got was this "Belle (Reprise)" mug! This was the perfect combination of my favorite things: Beauty and the Beast, coffee, and books!
I found this at the DisneyStyle store in Disney Springs, but also saw it at multiple gift shops throughout the parks! It was only $13.99.
As I am a sucker for a good Beauty and the Beast mug, I also got this ADORABLE stack of books mug with a rose handle! One of the books says "Looking for Adventure" on the spine. So. Cute. It was $24.99 from the World of Disney Store in Disney Springs.
You may notice a theme here :) The next thing I got was this gorgeous Thomas Kinkade 1,000 piece puzzle-- Beauty and the Beast, of course. I had been eyeing the puzzles for forever, so this was the perfect time to finally get one! I also got it at World of Disney in Disney Springs for $21.99.
The last thing I got this last trip was a spirit jersey!! In no other color but millennial pink, my favorite! I got this at Merchant of Venus in Tomorrowland in Magic Kingdom for $64.99. I love it SO much!
Throughout the week of our trip, I also used the gift card to get more Joffrey's coffee (who's shocked?) and other yummy snacks. It was a 150 Disney dollars well spent :)
A huge thank you, once again, again and again to @thedisneykrops! Be sure to follow them and join in their Disney fun!
Also, enter Instagram giveaways!! They're usually pretty easy to enter, and you never know when you may win :)
What's your favorite kind of souvenir from vacations?
