When I get done writing this epinion I am going to Disneyland!! Ok, maybe not. Would you believe that I am going to check out the Disney Store Online?
Just the thought of that wonderful world of fun reminds us of the joy of being a child. Disney was brilliant in deciding to market their products throughout the states at a chain of mall stores that would bring some of the characters that we all remember into our own neighborhoods. Clothing, videos, stuffed characters, collectables and more can be found with Mickey Mouse or Minnie. Also, Winnie the Pooh and Tigger along with the rest of the Pooh gang can be found on beach towels or sunglasses. A place to find Mulan, Belle and the Beast, 101 Dalmations, Bambi, Cinderella, Pocohontas and even Flubber gifts of all sorts and for any occasion or just a fun place to take the kids on the trip to the mall.
Then Disney went one step further to keep up with the times by opening an even better store on the internet. Now I don’t have to drag the kids to the mall just to pick up a gift for a birthday. Browsing online at DisneyStore.com you can find most of the items that you would be able to pick up at the Disney mall store or find in the Disney Store catalog. Best of all there are usually some additional items that you can only find online.
One of my hobbies is collecting Mickey Mouse bean bags of all sorts. It is nice to be able to browse online and order my items without having to run to the mall and find that they are sold out of the new releases. Clearance items are offered seasonally and it is not the usual junk that you find in the sale piles at a store. At least half of the Mickey Mouse items that I have purchased in the last year were on clearance at the online store. This makes my hobby not only fun but, affordable.
Some people are not sure about making purchases online because either the website is too hard to figure out or the shipping costs make the purchase too expensive. DisneyStore.com is set up very efficiently so you can find the items that you are looking for quickly. If you don’t know what kind of gift you are looking for then you can pick your favorite character and browse through all the items with his picture. Best of all when you find what you are looking for the shipping cost is very reasonable. It would cost as much in gas to run down to the store to make the purchase or just buy your item in your own living room. Items are delivered in 5-10 days right to your doorstep.
One of my favorite gifts to send to anyone is a DisneyGram. That is an 18” Disney character dressed for your special occasion. For example…how about a get well gift for someone special feeling under the weather? Doctor Mickey knows that laughter is the best medicine. Dressed in his surgical scrubs, Mickey brings the patient a ''Goofy'' x-ray and a warm hug. With a personalized gift card, the patient should be cheery in no time.
Other DisneyGrams you can choose would be a Pooh Graduation bear, Musical Birthday Pooh, Congratulations MickeyGram, It’s a Boy/Girl Pooh and Wedding Minnie and Mickey DisneyGram. This is an easy way to spread the magic throughout the kingdom.
