Extra socks! Our socks got wet and dried really stiff. We had extra, so many extra pairs, but we still ran out and had to do laundry. Never enough clean, dry socks for us.
Plus, camera batteries. Really expensive to buy in parks. And, most especially, the cheap rain ponchos, less than a dollar each and easy enough to just throw away as needed (ours were eighty-eight cents at Wal*Mart).

Pipe cleaners and bubbles. The pipe cleaners for TS when the kids need to be occupied and quiet. The girls made crowns. Bubbles for standing in line or fixing melt downs.

Extra socks, extra shoes and foot cooling spray.
For my BF, he's grateful I made him pack two baseball hats when he lost his first one.

A power supply strip to keep all the recharging items grouped together (much easier to remember to take home that way too)

I would have to second (or third) the following
extra socks
batteries
power strip - with cell phones and rechargeable camera and camcorder batteries there never would have been enough
pepcid - my stomach was a mess
cheap rain ponchos
moleskin and little scissors(with blunt tips) to cut them into the right shapes
sunbock sticks - for faces and ears these work so much better and don't run into the little ones eyes
the cheap over the door shoe holder from the dollar store to hang inthe bathroom. it kept the tooth brushes and hairbrushes ect ect all neat and in one place without them being all over the sink so that the cleaning people could clean.
kool aid and lemonade drink mixes to mix with bottled water
extra camcorder battery. you can't really get them charged anywhere and the one we had only lasted for about 20 mins.
a small notebook that I made with tips from intercot on where to watch the fireworks, great photo spots, menus for the CS places so that we could decide before leaving an area if we wanted to eat there so we didn't have to backtrack. I also had in there a small calendar of what parks we were going to on each day, what parades on what day, park times, ADR's fireworks ect ect ect. It really REALLY came in handy.

Sorry I just thought of another one
rolls of quarters and shiny new pennies - for all of those pressed penny machines. We never really had "change" on us as we charged everythng to the room - I was glad that I thought about it and remembered to bring it so that we had them when the kids started asking for them.

I think someone else said this, but I don't want it to get lost in the shuffle...small scissors! You can buy the moleskin for blisters on property, but they don't have any small scissors...and trust me, its hard to try to use fingernail clippers to cut that stuff.
And don't listen to your DH if he tells you not be bring an extra pair of comfortable shoes...if I hadn't listened to my DH telling one pair of sneakers was enough, maybe I wouldnt' know about the moleskin

Plastic bags, we use them to seperate dirty clothes from the clean clothes when we're leaving and the day we left our bathing suites were still wet so it was nice to have a bag to keep the dry clothes dry.

Last time I was desperate for a nail file. Had a jagged nail that was driving me nuts and there were no nail files to be found. I looked EVERYWHERE at all the parks and finally found those real flimsy cheapos (but overpriced of course) in the hotel's shop. Bring one!

Dishsoap and Tape
We brought a small container of dishsoap for our toddler's sippy cups and the Disney refill mugs. Instead of using disposable cups, we just gave them a quick clean in the sink at night. Also, crazy idea, but we brought tape last time too...we used it to keep our toddler out of the fridge and away from the air conditioner controls.

Zip lock bags.You just never know when you'll need them! I also bought a pair of Disney Crocs down there and I wear them everywhere,no blisters,and if they get wet,they dry very quickly.Your feet don't sweat in them either.

I don't go anywhere without my electric heating pad for my aching joints after walking. Also, my beautiful cane I bought a couple trips back at EPCOT's Mexico. Those get me through the vacation.
