    Ooooh oooh oohhhh! I never thought to check the dollar store! I'm totally doing that! We have our disney ponchos from our last trip, but I really don't want to lug them. My day pack is smaller and lighter than ever before (no more diapers for anyone in my family!) so I really want to keep light!

    We are bringing:
    Food for breakfast: Cereal bars, oatmeal, cereal
    Snacks in individual baggies
    Reusable waterbottles and drink mixes
    Purex Sheets
    1/2 the clothes we normally bring
    Mesh laundry bag for dirty clothes... has a strap for carrying it to the laundry room!

    Last Trip: April 2015 CBR
    Next Trip: Sept 2015 Boardwalk

    Most of it has been said, but:

    Dollar store rain ponchos

    Laundry detergent and dryer sheets

    $20 Wal-Mart umbrella stroller

    The stroller has been huge for us, meaning that it has saved us a ton of money. Not only is it far cheaper, you don't have to leave it at the park, and it's not a hassle to collapse to take on the buses. When your four year old is out cold, you don't have to carry her from the bus stop to your room, or from the entrance of the park to your car, etc.

    One last item, but it's not something we bring, is that we always hit the outlet mall across the freeway from Downtown Disney and go to the Disney Outlet store on our way IN to town. We always find things there for *cheap*. One year, we bought Princess nightgowns and dresses for our DD (4) and a friend of hers from home for $20 each. The dresses normally go for $60-$80. We've bought nice Disney golf shirts, tons of pins, t-shirts, etc there that has saved us money over buying something similar in the parks.
