Token Freebie
What token (freebie) keepsake do you look forward to getting year after year. For our kids it's the pluto spoon straw from AK. They get them with a frozen lemonaide from a pretzel stand just after getting off of KRR.....they use them all year, and when we go back, they make sure we "refresh" their supply of 'em ......

My Favorite use to be the plastic souvenir cups that you got when you purchased a soda at the parks. They had them at MK, AK, and Epcot. The ones at the MK were really cool because it was a set with a different cup from each land. They made great cups to drink from at home and I have also used them as a pencil holder on my desk at work. Recently they have disappeared from all but a a few places and on my trip in June I didn't notice any

This isnt really a freebie, but i gather all the round Mickey coasters that the glasses rest on in the hotel room. i get as many as i can and use them at home year round. it helps me grab little bits of pixie dust until my next trip.
also, i grab extra napkins through out the parks to use at home. again, helps with the disney withdrawals.

Us too. We have Epcot with Figment and Spectromagic and a couple of "Share a Dream Come True" buckets. I love them and after a few years in the dishwasher, they still look new.
I am looking forward to this year to get some new ones.

I love the Mickey confetti. We gathered some on our last trip, and I've since scattered them around the house. I'll come across one every now and then, and it brings a smile to my face!

I thought I was the only crazy one that brings back hordes of napkins and the coasters. I also bring back the toiletries and use them to stock our guest bathroom.
Love the drink stirrer idea, will have to do that next time as well as the AK spoon straw.My two aren't really snackers so I had not seen those.
Not a freebie, but during a rain at the World we bought those clear rainponchos with Mickey on the back and my kids have used them for a year. They look forward to a rainy day so they can wear them.

I pick up bits of confetti, and little feathers that fall off costumes, but my favorite is a leaf that blew right in my lap during the safari. All that stuff is in my "box" waiting for DD to scrapbook for me. Everytime I look at that leaf, I remember that we were stopped for the giraffe that was in the middle of the road, and that leaf shared the moment.
I also have my popcorn bucket, and yes, the coasters - dozens of them. AND, (don't burn me for this), a package of crayons from Cape May. I signed the tablecloth first.

That's a wonderful memory. Thank you for sharing it.
By the way, I saw the Mickey confetti on Main Street and thought about scooping some up but felt shy about it. Now I know others do these things too ! I've got tons of napkins, cups (from each park when each one was different), plates, popcorn boxes... I'm not as crazy as my friends think ! Yipee I found my place !

That was DD's favorite. She kept stooping down and picking up all she could after each parade.
For me, it was napkins from the F&W festival. They make a great accent on the bar.

I don't really have one, but I do take the toiletries... (who doesn't?)
and I ALWAYS keep my pass into the parks (from Disneyland it's a paper swip card with a magnetic strip, fromWDW it's palastic).

Besides a soap or two and a handful of napkins, the biggie for us is the room key.

I remember as a child when we stayed at the Contemporary Resort, at the food stop on the first floor the Orange Juice would come in little plastic shaped oranges, with plastic green leaves on top with a straw. I remember taking these home and for a time it was all my sister and I wanted to drink OJ out of. ahh the memories as a child.

Well, thanks to all of you napkin "theives", I don't feel guilty anymore! We always grab extra napkins here and there. It is so cool to every now and then throw one in DS's lunch box for school or my lunch box for work. It helps spread the magic out from trip to trip.
The other freebie that is really cool for us, is the Kidcot masks from Epcot. You can see my son's artwork design from age 2 to now age 9. We have them as a decoration on the wall in his playroom.

Freebies
The room key and park passes are in my photo album. I forget where we first saw Mickey shaped confetti, and collected some, but we all thought it was cool. But later we were in the Gear shop in Epcot and when my youngest DD saw that they sold packages of it, she had to have it.
That was almost a year ago and I don't think she's opened it yet. Too precious I guess!
