Re: Favorite Shops

The Emporium right on the corner on Main St. if my favorite store. I spent $127 there last year and ended up getting a free lithograph b/c I spent $125!! I was so excited. It's framed and hanging in my living room [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] I could easily have spent another couple hundred dollars in there.

I love browsing the shops in New Orleans Square. The shop in Frontierland behind Splash Mountain is also pretty cool. Lots of Winnie-the-Pooh stuff!!

Re: Favorite Shops

I [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/love.gif[/img] all the shops in New Oreleans Square, Adventureland, and Frontierland. The Emporium on Main Street. The Mad Hatter in Fantasyland. Everything under the Sun and Rushin River Outfitters in DCA.

Re: Favorite Shops

I love the Disney Clothiers Ltd. It's so funny because my kids are not babies anymore but I just love looking at their baby clothes. It is so cute! We always end up making a right and ending up in the section with the adult women's clothes where we actually purchase something. Interestingly, I have spent more money in that one shop than all the other shops in Disneyland Resort combined.

We always make a point of stopping into Basin (in Downtown Disney) and picking up a couple of bath bombs. We'll bring them back to the room and V will enjoy a soak in a fizzy, warm tub before dropping off for the best night's sleep she'll have the whole trip.

Mmmm, fizzy warm bath...

I love the shops in DtD. I'm particularly fond of Illuminations (candle store), the book store (it's really small & I forget it's name), the Build A Bear store is fun to look in (watch people making/dressing their animals & looking at all the accessories they have for them) & the World of Disney store. Oh & the art gallery Hoi Poloi(sp?).

My favorite is still the World of Disney in Downtown Disney. The store is so huge and they've got so many things in there that you need at least an hour just to go through the store. The best time to go is in the morning when the merchandise is stil nice and neat, and you can shop without being shoulder to shoulder with everyone in the store.

Okay, so you've probably already gone on your incredible trip (and I'm sure it was!), but here are my picks.

Sad to say, but a few of my favoreites are no longer there. Loved the Christmas Shop in NOS, but it's now Pirates I believe. Also, does anyone remember Le Gourmet? It was also in NOS and was fantastic. Boy, do I miss those.

But, I digress...love the Disneyana shop. Can only afford the prints, but it is so fun to browse! Also, World of Disney in DTD is perfect for it's selections. Crowded, little atmosphere, but you'll find it there!
