Cheap Disney Gifts
- Available in Disney parks, online auctions and on the Disney Store website, Disney pins make small, affordable gifts that start at $7 for basic pins and between $12 to $20 for special-edition pins. Pin sets are considerably more.
The pins feature different Disney characters, so you can purchase a pin that has a friend or family member's favorite character. Pins also commemorate different Disney parks, resorts and park anniversaries, so at any given time, you can purchase a limited-edition pin that marks a special occasion. So, besides giving a special gift, you are also giving a collectible. - Since 2010, Vinylmation figures--which come in a variety of sizes from the small 3-inch version to the large 24-inch doll--have been a popular Disney gift choice. With all Vinylmation figures being shaped like Mickey Mouse, the figures feature different designs and color schemes that commemorate Disney characters, parks, and anniversaries, and a new series is released every few months. At D-Street, a store located in Downtown Disney Marketplace, you can create your own Vinylmation figure and customize it to match a friend's unique taste, making it a gift that has Disney flare and a personal touch. The small versions are usually under $15.
- Cute, yet functional, kitchen accessories like salt and pepper shakers, cookie cutters, measuring cups, ice trays, hand towels and even spoon rests make affordable and functional gifts as many are under $25 dollars. Disney kitchen utensils often feature Minnie or Mickey Mouse, Goofy, Pluto or Donald Duck. If you're in Disney World, Downtown Disney and Epcot have stores that sell other characters such as Lady and the Tramp, Pongo and Perdita and the faeries from Pixie Hollow. Other character-themed kitchen items can be found on the Disney Store's online shop.
- Many of the coffee mugs Disney produces are often kitschy, which is why they make great gifts. Disney mugs come in bright colors, a variety of sizes ranging from 6 ounces to 24 ounces and feature many different characters. Many also have puffy, three-dimensional faces. There are mugs shaped like Mickey's shorts or wide mugs that are a coffee drinker's dream-come-true. For kids, there are travel mugs that are shaped like their favorite Disney characters. Many of these can be purchased for under $20.
