In case you missed it, Disney World is still in the middle of its big 50th anniversary celebration!
Some 50th anniversary items are pretty expensive
And we’ve seen some 50th anniversary souvenirs that are pretty expensive: $100 ornaments, $130 sweatpants, and even $1000 Minnie ears!!! And today, we found yet another pricey souvenir, and we’re still having a little bit of sticker shock.
It’s almost New Year’s Eve, and not everyone can make it to Disney World to celebrate.
