5 Spectacular Splurges FOR DISNEY LOVERS ($75+) – Holiday Gift Guide 2018

October 18, 2018 · In: Disney World, Gift Guides

Here is the final installment of my Disney lovers portion of the gift guide! These items are all over $75 so they are definitely splurge items. Great for spoiling your favorite Disney fan this holiday season! Enjoy!

1. Minnie Style Luggage – I know I could definitely use some new luggage. I’ve been using my parent’s despite having moved out almost 3 years ago and I live over 1,000 miles away lol. This Minnie style luggage from American Tourister is just so cute! There are two sizes, a 21″ and a 28″. At the time I am writing this they seem to be on sale on Amazon. The smaller one is currently $75 and the large is $100. This is great because you can get one or the set! Luggage is definitely one of those items we could all use a new set of, but we hate buying ourselves. There are also other Disney styles available in the links provided.

 

2. The Partners Statue – Okay, okay, so it isn’t a FULL SIZE Partners Statue. But how cool is this? This iconic statue can be found in Disney Parks all over the world! Perfect for the Disney lover on both coasts and internationally. This 9″ statue is $160 from ShopDisney.

 

3. LEGO Disney Castle – This one is truly a HUGE splurge! I actually have this and it isn’t your every day LEGO set, and it’s ages 16+ for a reason. We bought this in March 2017 and just finished it earlier this year. In total time it probably took us about 20hrs to build. But this is really awesome! The details are crazy and there is nods to all of the Disney Princess movies inside. A great family gift for sure! This will run you $349.99…. Yeah, definitely a spectacular splurge! You can get this in LEGO stores nationwide, LEGO’s website, and at Disney World and Disneyland (we managed to get 10% off with our AP).

 

4. Disney Tour – Does your favorite Disney lover have a trip coming up? How fun would it be to gift them a Disney Resort EXPERIENCE. They do truly have this for all budgets, but I’m showing one of the more moderately ones for Disney World, and a more expensive option for DLR. Tours like Behind the Seeds at WDW start at only $20 for kids and $25 for adults or The Magic Behind Our Steam Tour for $54. Also keep in mind some tours change seasonally and WDW definitely has more tour offerings than DLR. The classic Keys to the Kingdom Tour at Walt Disney World is $99 a person and lasts 5 hours! They’ll show you all the secrets around the Magic Kingdom and it is truly a once in a lifetime experience. The Walk in Walt’s Disneyland Footsteps tour at DLR is (I believe after some research) $109 per person. You can either book these experiences for your loved one or get a Disney gift card for the dollar amount!

 

5. Tsum Tsum Plush Advent Calendar – I have wanted one of these the past few years, but I just haven’t bit the bullet! Not all Disney lovers are going to be into Tsum Tsums, but this is just too cute and festive to not put on the list. This advent calendar comes with 25 mini sized plushes and costs $129.95. I know, it’s a lot. But this IS the spectacular splurges section. I think this would also be a fun family gift and an alternative to individual advent calendars. You can even see what plushes are included by scrolling through the pictures in the link!

 

Thanks so much for reading this gift guide! I hope you got some ideas and inspiration. Let me know in the comments what your favorite item is that you would like to give or receive. And let me know your ideas for spectacular splurges. As always, don’t forget to subscribe to my email list in order to get notified of a new post. Thanks for reading!

      Thank you so much, Beth! I’m glad to hear that. I actually have never done any Disney tours! I know, crazy! I’ve done excursions while on the Disney Cruise Line but that is a whole other world. My parents have done the segway tour at Fort Wilderness, but unfortunately I was too young at the time. I really want to do one soon though!

    I love the Tsums! I got the vinyl tsum count down last year, maybe it’s time to splurge for the plus one!

      I love giving and receiving experiences! It’s something no one normally thinks about. Grant got me tickets to Mamma Mia Farewell Tour a few years ago for my birthday and I wish I could go back in time to that night. But girl, I need new luggage so bad lol. Thanks for reading!

    Love, love, love the suitcase! I would be afraid the airlines would ruin it but I am willing to take the chance!

      Yeah I don’t blame you! That’s why I personally love hard luggage. They get dirty but all of the scuffs easily come off with a magic eraser.

While we didn’t have the best beach weather last While we didn’t have the best beach weather last weekend, we still managed to soak up some sun☀️🌊

The best part of any beach trip is showering after a long day in the water and throwing on your favorite sun dress with your fresh tan🤍 I am obsessed with this new one I snagged for only $35 - plus the perfect purse to match🐚

Genuinely if I have $1 for every time I’ve been told I “don’t belong in Western PA” - I’d have enough money to move to the southern city of my choosing😂 But seriously - I’ve gotten these comments since I was in middle school! 

I’ve heard it said PA is 10 years behind on fashion👀 I can confirm people don’t understand me or my Lorna Murray hat I bought back in 2022👒

Getting vulnerable for a second: I love creating content and blogging but photographing myself lately, especially on this trip, has been rough for my self-esteem. While curating this post I was second guessing even posting these pictures because I didn’t like the way my body looked. Over the past month I’ve been on a regimen of medications that have thrown my body through a loop have had me not feeling myself. Even a “healthy” diet and daily exercise can’t reverse the side effects I’m experiencing and it’s been hard for me to reconcile that. In this process I’ve been reminding myself I don’t look at others around me or people I follow online and analyze their bodies or looks. 

So this is your reminder that we’re overthinking ourselves more than others are thinking about us. And it’s easier said than done, but give yourself grace through all seasons of life🤍

‼️TLDR: Overall it was as chaotic as I expected so I was neither impressed nor disappointed. However I’m unsure how things will suddenly be running smoothly at the opening that’s just 2 weeks away.

✨I’ll start with our highlight which was mainly Super Nintendo World! I was a big Nintendo kid so this was very anticipated for me. While the rides were meh the land is extremely immersive. I do wish we had more time to explore the games you can play with the power up bands! 

🍔As for food we didn’t eat a ton but had lunch at Oak & Star Tavern (BBQ) which was much better than I expected! Not the best theme park food I’ve ever had but definitely better than anything I’ve had at Universal in the past. We also got a frozen melon apple drink in Nintendo that was perfect for a hot day!

🐉Isle of Berk was cool overall but for such a niche IP I wasn’t really interested. The one ride we rode in the land - Hiccup’s Wing Gliders - ended up being our favorite!

🧟‍♂️Dark Universe was a tad underwhelming. I was really looking forward to it but it didn’t really do it for me. At night it was cool but the ride wasn’t as good as I was expecting. I’ve heard quotes that this is the “most technologically advanced ride in the world” and that’s simply not true. However the ride wasn’t as scary as I thought it would be!

🇫🇷Magical Paris was neat despite me not being a Harry Potter fan. It really felt like Paris! However the lack of attractions there is a huge problem. 

🎢Despite it being technical rehearsals to me does not justify the amount of rides that were either completely shut down or broke at some point. Only 2 attractions in the entire park had zero issues all day. We rode 4 attractions since everything else was closed (2 would’ve caused motion sickness). I don’t see how these will magically be working in 2 weeks. The closures caused long wait time and chaos in every aspect. At opening they had no system for filtering people into queues in a reasonable manner. Something Disney figured out decades ago. 

Glad we went and experienced something new! #epicuniverse
