Your Most Expensive Gift..

We don't tend to by many expensive things, we buy ALOT Of pins and vinylmation for people for the value for money the most expensive thing we have brought are ride photos, I can not see how they are so expensive for a print out. So glad we have brought memory maker this year

I think the most expensive gift we bought was a watch. On the previous trip Disney had given us two three hundred dollar gift cards for booking two rooms and we still had money left on one of them so we used that to buy it. My guess is it was about eighty dollars. We rarely spend that much on one item. I have a hard time justifying that kind of spending. I can't even think of buying some of the disney t-shirts I like just because I think they should be a few dollars cheaper.

I bought an animation cel way back. An HM scene that was my daughter's favorite ride. I'll post a picture one of these days.

It was actually pre-trip... A Rapunzel Wedding dress for Blondie... $70 but well worth it for the smiles she had!!!

And it was purchased at the Disney store LOL

We don't really buy big items when we are at Disney. The DH buys t-shirts and hats and I usually get pins. If you add up how much I have spent on pins over the years it's a lot of money! I think the Mickey dress I bought last year was the most I have ever spent and that was $60.

I think the most expensive thing we have bought was new jackets in the Puffin's roost.The majority of the cost however was paid out of christmas cash that we had got (we try and buy something specific so we can say "thanks for getting us x for christmas).
Next to that would be a mickey watch from Main street,although i can't remember how much that cost/

Haha my Dooney & Burke bag!! Plus, one for my DD! My DH just shook his head!!

I don't think I buy expensive items I think its more the vast amount as cheaper items I buy!!!! for example and expensive necklace or watch I probably wouldn't buy - however id buy say 5 items that would add up to that amount!!!!!

this is also why we need 2 extra holdalls for the journey back!!!!!

I'm with Amy1989! It seems all those "littles" add up! A handful of pins, trinkets in Epcot....all of a sudden a few hundred bucks are gone and it's only day one We have bought some Art of the Evil Queen and they usually run around $50....two years in a row DW has bought a long sleeve t-shirt from Everest which has real patches sewn all over it...pretty cool but a salty price of around $40. I'm with Watchmakers DW- I'd love a D&B handbag-especially that haunted mansion one!

(cute pic of Blondie )

My pearl and setting each year at Japan (this year a ring) and my husband picks one jade item from China. We used to buy lots of little stuff that really added up, but not so much anymore.

Son bought a cake topper his GF just had to have for their wedding that never happened....

thanks! I think she is pretty cute myself! I buy a lot of little things. I don't even want to think about what we spend on pins each time we go. Could probably pay for another trip instead

Pins are my weakness for sure and though not "expensive" per pice, they do add up rather quickly!! I think the most I've spent on an individual pin was $20 and there were 3: The D23 Chip & Dale pocket watch pin (for DH. I went without him right before his birthday one year and I couldn't resist), Darth Vader LE from SWW, and C3P0 LE from SWW.

I did spend $200 on new running shoes at Fit2Run, but that was more of a necessity than a souvenir. My good running shoes were shot and I have a pair of nikes, but running in them makes we want to saw off my feet. I ran 7 miles in them right before our trip in May and I was freaking out because as soon as I took them off, my left foot started to swell and I couldn't even put light pressure on it for nearly two hours.

I'd rather sink my money into more trips, or more good food during the trip. Souvenirs don't rank really high on my priority list. Unless they're for people back home, then I can spend a chunk of change.

My kind of running shoes! The most I've spent on my newest pair was $120 and I must say its worth it to spend more if you're an avid runner. They really do make a world of difference.

Since we were celebrating our 25th Anniversary on our last trip, we splurged on a few things. Hubby bought me 3 new charms for my Charmed Memories bracelet, a new Vera Bradley purse, and we had an ornament personalized at the DTD Christmas store. He got a new mug
We are usually pretty frugal though. Here's a tip. If you make a purchase at Starbucks in one of the parks at the bottom of the receipt they have a coupon for 20% off your total purchase at certain stores like Mousegear at Epcot. That's how we did our souvenirs for the folks back home and my purse!

awwww thanks!!!

Sweet! I will look out for that, I love me some Starbucks!

My wife loaded up in the Christmas store in anticipation of my daughters wedding shower, but no one thing was that expensive. In total it was alot.

For me, it was an Indiana Jones hat. Over 60 bucks and by far, the most expensive hat I've ever bought!

I'd have to say DVC

I bought a Lion King 'letterman's style' jacket 20 years ago. Had coveted them at the Disney Store all year and finally there was some sort of sale/discount. Was something like $200 originally, but don't recall what I paid. Still have it!

Sorry, Watchmaker, but I have to say my Dooney & Bourke bag was my most expensive item as well But since it's the only designer bag I own, I feel like it was worth it

Well, that was actually the running shoes AND a pair of super-cushion-walk-on-clouds flip flops, but I have a lot of mile to put on those babies up to and including ToT 10-miler and I've not been having the best time with my feet lately. I only spent $60 on the nikes and they were clearly not the shoe for me (so. much. pain.) The new shoes are helping tremendously!

It would have to be my DVC. It was my birthday gift.
