    The only thing I bring from home, other than clothes and my beloved wife and the occasional, various and sundry daughter, is my CPAP, or SnoreMaster 2000 as the guys on my crew call it. Can't sleep without it.
    Officially too many trips to list here!

    Wow...you bring them WITH you??? What a guy .

    We generally don't take too much from home with us, but after reading this thread, I think we might try to squeeze in our pillows. I agree with several posters...when I'm in WDW, I don't want to be reminded of home .

    We do bring a cooler usually with water and some drinks. It's like tradition when we get back to the room we all just site around and have a soda and tell our favorite parts of the day. (Can easily be a long conversation sometimes)

    For snacks: Bottled water, champagne, and breakfast cereal/ pastries.
    For toiletries: Our own shampoo. DH is picky about what he puts in his hair! (But the Mickey soaps are A-OK.)

    We will be going to Disney in May and I am planning on taking my pillow and air freshner for the room. We are also taking bottled water, portable dvd player for my niece(5) breakfast stuff and snacks.

    Rain ponchos, as someone else said. But most important my own shampoo and conditioner! Those tiny bottles just don't cut it.

    I always bring snacks, drinks, etc. I travel for a living so my bag always has my own shampoo and conditioner.
    I did once bring my toaster ( it also cooks an egg on the side) I had homemade egg McMuffins for breakfast before a busy day.

    My own hair dryer. The little ones attached to the walls just don't cut it.

    A better question for me would probably be what don't you bring? Last trip we brought along 2 strollers (1 double, 1 single), crib, 2 inflatable beds, pillows and blankes, toys galore, breakfast food and snacks, and we actually managed to fit in 3 kids in carseats, my DH and myself. We needed a diagram to fit it all in our van

    I thought I was the only strange one who won't travel anywhere without bringing my pillow from home. It's so huge, it flies down in its own large duffle. Ditto on the shampoo, conditioner and blow dryer, as well. Then, the most important part, comfortable shoes!

    My pillow, small fan for the room, an octopus like thing to hang in the shower to help dry things we wash out in the sink, extra hangers and a couple of extension cords help make my value resort like home. Ooops, I forgot, spray disinfectant, botttles water and breakfast bars, ziplock bags, and shower shampoo, conditioner and bodywash.

    coffee pot
    coffee
    coffee filters
    coffee cups
    half & half
    sugar
    Wife and I both need LOTS of coffee in the AM
    One cup just will not do! So we have it set up and waiting for us already brewed when we wake up

    cooler
    beer & wine. Both are just obscenely priced on site. Dont think we're supposed to do it, but sitting by the pool late in the evening with a few discreetly hidden drinks is oh so nice

    And finally ....snacks chips & salsa etc.
    We are Siamese if you please

    Now that we live closer to WDW and drive down, we've started taking pillows, bottled water, and a bottle of the foaming hand soap we use at home. We've always brought our own shampoo, etc., hair dryer, and an extension cord. Oh - and ziploc bags in different sizes - we end up using them for lots of things.

    I bring our own soaps/shampoos/lotions, favorite blanket and stuffy for DS, and my own laundry soap. Oh and we bring our own stroller. Other than that, I'm happy to be away from home.
