We’re big fans of saving money where we can, and sometimes that means not buying things that are unnecessary.
However, it also means sometimes you need to buy things before you arrive at the park to save money while you’re there! We’re in the parks nearly every day, so we know what’s definitely needed for your trip, and what you may want to take out of your Amazon cart. These items are 100% the essentials we think are needed for your next vacation!
Keep Yourself Dry!
Disney World is rainy, especially in summertime, and instead of buying a cheap poncho inside the Disney World park which will tear after your first time using it. Instead, we recommend grabbing the FROGG TOGGS Poncho online, which will last you time and time again! It even comes with its own pouch that you can put it back into, so it doesn’t get anything else wet in your bag.
Never Lose Anything in Your Bag Again
There’s nothing worse than KNOWING you put something in your bag, but being unable to find it because your bag is too cluttered. That’s where the HOYOFO Mini Backpack Organizer comes in. It has tons of pockets to help you organize your items so they’re all easy to find. It also helps you decide how much you can realistically pack so you’re not overwhelmed in the park.
Get A Replaceable Portable Charger
Having a portable charger in Disney World is of utmost importance, but it’s a terrible day when your portable charger runs out of juice. By using a FuelRod Portable Charger Kit, you can purchase two FuelRods online, then replace them in the park whenever you need a recharge. Then, you can continue to use your FuelRods at home and charge them normally!
Keep Yourself Cool!
Summer is also HOT in Disney World, so keeping yourself cool is super important. We love the JISULIFE Handheld Mini Fan for how small it is, and it’s easily rechargeable. Again, it’s something you can use back at home too, so it’ll certainly get plenty of use during those hot days.
Charge Everything at The SAME Time
When you’re on vacation, especially if you’re staying in a Disney World hotel room, you may find that you don’t have as many outlets as you’d like to charge what you need. As you likely know, it’s very important to have everything charged for each day of your trip, so you don’t want to pick and choose what you charge, which is where the MultiCharger comes in! This way, you can make sure all your devices are ready to go without taking up multiple outlets.
Keep The Sun TOTALLY Off Of You
If you want to avoid sunburn and help keep yourself out of the sun no matter where you are, you’ll want to grab the BAODINI Travel Mini Umbrella. Even if you use sunscreen, sometimes you still can get sunburn, or even worse, sun poisoning, and nothing can ruin your trip faster. We find that by using one of these, it lowers the temperature underneath by 5-10 degrees easily.
