I always buy their beach towels! They are plush and hold up well. At only $20 they often last much longer in the household than does a piece of clothing (that often costs much more).
I also love a shoulder bag I got there - I use it whenever we are out and about.
We collect a lot of the little stuffed disney characters. We have Jedi Mickey (star tours) and Viking Pluto from Norway, Japanese Minnie, Mexico Donald, Tower of Terror Goofy and many others. They are great and aren't very expensive.
I like keychains as well (expedition everest and haunted mansion keychains were our last investments)
Shot glasses would have to be on this list. They are just funny!
As for shops... I LOVE MouseGears in Epcot. I like the gift shop in the Poly and at Pop Century. I like a certain gift shop in Animal Kingdom but I can't remember it's name (it's by FlameTree BBQ).
Sighhh... It's time to make plans to go back!
"Is there a 12 step program for this Mouse addiction?"
Next Trips:

-
I always pick up Disney pens, they make great little gifts. Keychains are another favorite, along with antennea toppers.
And a new Hawaiian shirt for DH.
Oh, and a Christmas ornament, every year.
Former VMK nic : majolica
Native Floridian.
-
1. t-shirt for all
2. yearly pin and ornament (and some special events too i.e. MNSSHP, if we are there for a holiday or birthday etc.)
3. pens and notepads (grocery shopping at home is less hum-drum with Disney notepad paper!!)
4. Mickey-roni and cheese...every time...no ifs ands or buts!!
5. Sunglasses! I always flt out of Dallas in the morning before sun-up, and therefore leave my glasses in their holder in my car...every time...no ifs ands or buts!
My favorite shops are The Emporium and the shops at the Contemporary and Grand Floridian.

I typically search for the strangest and most interesting souvenir I can find, since I have a collection of vintage WDW/DL souvenirs, and its fun trying to find stuff that looks like no one else is going to have it. And I always, always, always pick up a snowglobe, a coffee mug, and we have a tradition of buying an elephant in the AK gift store.
The best shops are MouseGears and the shop at the Contemporary (the one right down from Chef Mickeys), but I do like the shop by the Little Mermaid adventure in MGM...cute stuff thats good for gifts. I LOVE the shop in Japan at WS, but its not really Disney stuff--just hip, cute stuff.

Here is my top 5:
1) A 3-d photo frame - We started with a trip to DL and have kept up the tradition since. The ones that we get are the nicer, shaped ones such as the castle shaped frames with the photo going in where the drawbridge is located.
2) Charms for DW. I absolutely love finding a new charm that she likes. DW is very particular and we ussually end up going through every bin that we come accross. She has about 25 now!
3) Matching T-shirts for DW and I. This becomes an indepth scavenger hunt as DW can't abide the crew top T-shirt, so finding a scoop neck shirt for DW and a ANY t-shirt for me is a challenge, but fun!
4) Scrapbooking supplies that can only be bought in the parks! DW loves it, I love what she does with our memories, nuff said!
5) Home Decor/Kitchen accessorie - so we can have some of the magic at home!
Best shops: M. Mouse Mercantile at Grand Floridian, the shops at the Poly, all the shops at the Contemporary, Emporium at MK, MouseGears at EPCOT, Wilderness Lodge Mercantile at WIlderness Lodge, the shops at Caribbean Plaza outside of Pirates,and World of Disney at DTD.
It is my dream to one day pilot the monorails around the Seven Seas Lagoon....where's my star!!!

1.I get a new ball cap each year.
2. DD gets a Princess dress. Last year it was Cinderella, this year she is getting the castle package at BBB in the Castle and will be Snow White for MNSSHP!
3. The kids each get one pin from each park, every trip. The pin has to be something to do with that park. (Just to make it fun ). For example, there will be no TOT pins bought at MK...lol. They are getting new landyards this year, theirs are full.
4. We started getting a new Xmas ornament last year. That will be a new tradition. Thanks Intercot!!
5. The kids each get a new hat or t shirt, whichever they choose.
We love The World of Disney is our favorite store!! Not that we won't shop in the others.
