As a former cast member I simply love all things Disney, unfortunately, I do not have the budget to buy all the things I am going to want once I get to the park! This is a dilemma faced by many families, especially those with children. Many websites recommend pre-buying souvenirs for children to save some $$, and I figured the same should apply for us! However, instead of getting off Disney brand merch at places like Wal-mart, I was able to get authentic Disney merchandise at my local thrift store!
Every time we go to the thrift store I turn my Disney filter on and look for anything I might like to have on the trip. We found a brand new with tags embroidered polo from WDW ($10 at Red, White, and Blue), two matching draw-string back packs also from WDW ($2 each), and two ball caps also from WDW (safari Mickey $2, Minnie $1). A quick wash in hot water made these items look brand new. I love this as an idea to create fun anticipation before taking the trip, it adds a little excitement to have a hunt for treasure for the parks!
