In terms of merchandise, food / beverages, etc., I think both California & Florida are the same.
However, there are four parks in Florida compared to two in California, so you would be more likely to spend more time / days at WDW than you would at DL / DCA.
This has been a perrenial question for us for years, since we live in Portland, OR, and Anaheim is significantly closer than Orlando., However, it always turns out that WDW is seriously cheaper than Disneyland, even if you don't take into account the additional parks and activities at WDW. I just did a quick check on the Disney website:
Disney World has better vacation package offers and more discounts available. Disneyland is in "peak" season for most of the year.
Food is more expensive at Disneyland as well. You have to figure about $1-2 over the price of similar items at WDW. Water and soda, (20oz bottles) are $3.50 apiece at DL. Kid's meals at CS locations are mostly $6.99. You get the point.
