Howdy Jasmine!
I love it when a fellow Texan stops by planDisney! Thanks for bringing us your question.
One of my favorite things at Walt Disney World Resort is shopping! I love bringing home some of the magic, like a beautiful mug or five! They make my everyday morning brew feel even more magical!
Jasmine, as you know, so much has changed since the pandemic. While some wonderful perks have returned, such as the
complimentary overnight self-parking for Guests staying at Disney Resort hotels, some have not. Currently, merchandise pickup and delivery services, which ship Guest purchases from the parks directly to their
Disney Resorts Collection hotel, are not being offered. I also loved this service, but I'd be happy to recommend other options in case they appeal to you.
Guests can
ship merchandise from most major Walt Disney World Resort park stores and most Disney Springs shops to their homes for an additional fee, as long as they have their original receipt. I like to ship any of the glassware I purchase to my home, so I'm not worrying about it breaking. You can also do this towards the end of your vacation and send your selected items together. Most Disney Resort hotel shops can take your purchased merchandise and their receipts to ship to your home.
You can also
rent a locker to store merchandise in at the parks and pick up your things before you leave for the day. You can find them offered at each theme park, and you'll find different sizes available. Each locker can be used throughout the day for a one-time charge.
Here is one of the most unique souvenirs I've ever gotten, and you can find it at
Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa at Basin White. It's seasonal and available while I was there during my most recent visit just last month, and I had it shipped home to me! I have my candle lit as I write this response to you, and I find it very comforting!
Wishing you an enchanting visit, Jasmine!
