Hello Sharon, and welcome to planDisney! You have a practically perfect question about one of my favorite Disney activities—shopping! Since you'll be visiting during the spooky season, be sure to check out
Memento Mori, located across from the
Haunted Mansion, for all your pre-Halloween accessories!
At this time, shops no longer send purchases back to the hotels for Guests. But do not worry because, as a fellow shopper of all things magical, I've found some options that work for me, so I'm not carrying packages around the park.
I usually do my shopping either in the middle of the day before returning to my Resort hotel for a bit of rest, or I make my purchases at the end of the evening, so I only have to carry my bags as I'm heading out.
Another great option that often goes overlooked is to
rent a locker. These lockers can be found at each theme park and will store your bags until you return to your Resort hotel. These lockers come in various sizes and only charge a nominal fee.
You can ask at the checkout counter of any merchandise location about the option of shipping your packages directly to your home address. While this is a very convenient option, please note that shipping costs will apply.
Sharon, I hope this helps you plan your trip! I am so excited that it won't be long until you get to see the pumpkin wreaths and fall decorations. You might even attend
Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. I hope you'll check out the new spellbinding show,
"Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After!" It promises to be wildly entertaining during this spookiest season of the year!
It's been my pleasure to help answer your question. Let us know if we can help you again.
Magical memories!
Shonette
