food IS a theme park
As soon as I saw this new Disney item, I hopped into my car and booked it to Costco. Trust me when I say that you’ll probably do the same!

We find fun Disney merchandise all over the place, at stores like Target, TJ Maxx, Aldi, and — yes — Costco. Whether you’re looking for a gift for a Disney fan in your life or you want to treat yourself with a beautiful Disney-themed decoration in your own home, we think you’ll love this new digital Disney photo frame!
We’ve all got our FAVORITE Disney World hotels, right? Personally, I’m a huge fan of Disney’s Pop Century Resort, with its value-level prices and access to the Disney Skyliner. But what about a Disney World hotel that you’d NEVER stay at again?
All-Star Resorts
We recently asked our DFB readers which hotel in Disney World they’ll never stay at ever again, and we got HUNDREDS of responses. Looking through all the picks, we noticed one CLEAR winner (and we totally could’ve called it), but there was a pretty popular second-place pick that we think might SHOCK you!
If you’re eating a snack while reading this, you might want to put it down for just a second.

One of Disney World’s Good Neighbor hotels had some restaurant issues recently, and it’s definitely not the kind of thing you want to think about while you’re eating. A restaurant at the hotel had to shut down entirely due to ROACHES present in the kitchen! [Read more…]

We frequently bring you updates about new Disney merchandise on Amazon or even the best souvenirs that have been around for a long time. But now we’ve got a list of a bunch of Disney-themed items that are coming SOON! These aren’t out yet, but you CAN pre-order them right now so that you’re one of the first to get them when they debut later this year. The list includes some really popular items, like Funko Pop! figures and Loungefly bags.
A building in EPCOT is being repurposed for several weeks, and only certain people will be allowed inside!
EPCOT
It’s possible that not every Disney fan would be able to point out the Odyssey pavilion on a map, but if you’ve been to any of the EPCOT festivals, there’s a good chance that you’ve been inside it! This pavilion is frequently used to house EPCOT festival booths — it has hosted booths like Figment’s Inspiration Station at the Festival of the Arts and Brew-Wing at the Food & Wine Festival. Most recently, it’s been the home of Citrus Blossom at the Flower & Garden Festival (and if you haven’t gotten the tasty Orange Sesame Tempura Shrimp there yet, HURRY! They’ll only be around for about another week!).
Soon, the Odyssey will be repurposed, and this time it’s NOT going to be an EPCOT festival booth.
A hotel gift shop has temporarily CLOSED in Disney World, and it looks like it’ll remain closed for a couple of months at least.
Disney’s Grand Floridian
Disney occasionally closes shops, attractions, and other areas in order to update and refurbish them. That’s how they keep everything lookin’ fresh and new! However, that also means that you might run into some temporary closures on your next trip to the parks. If you’re heading to Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort soon, you need to know about this important update. [Read more…]
This is NOT a drill, folks! There’s a new version of one of our favorite Disney World snacks, and you’ve absolutely GOT to try it.
Disney’s Contemporary Hotel
We all know how wonderful it feels to sit down on the Hub grass in front of Cinderella Castle and chow down on some corn dog nuggets from Casey’s Corner, right? Those nuggs might be a little basic, but the nostalgia factor makes them one of our favorite treats in the whole park. Now, there’s a NEW corn dog nugget dish just a Monorail ride away from Magic Kingdom, and it might be even BETTER than the OG (Yep, we said it. And we mean it!). [Read more…]

OK, you might have questions. WHY are people bringing an extension cord to Disney World? Don’t worry, we’ve got answers!
Walt Disney World
Packing for Disney World can be a complicated affair. The weather in Orlando is sometimes unpredictable, so packing layers and a raincoat (DEFINITELY a raincoat) is essential. You’ll also need ALL the sunscreen. And don’t forget the reusable straws so you don’t have to use those paper ones in the parks. While you’re at it, make sure you pack at least one extension cord.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
