If you’ve got a penchant for Disney character-bedecked tote bags, you’re going to want to listen up because Walt Disney World has a pair of totes that are basically a 2-for-1. And it gets even better: they’re mouse-themed!

If you’re a fan of Disney Parks merchandise and don’t have a Disney Store near you to wash away your Disney blues, Target might have a store-within-a-store for that!

In just the past few years, Walt Disney World began installing refillable bottle stations (officially called hydration stations) in its Parks and Resorts. To date there aren’t many, but with the many pushes Disney is making to be more eco-conscious (see their controversial plastic plans here!), we expect more will be installed in the future. And lots of readers have expressed interest in these stations, so we’re here with answers for all of your refillable bottle station questions!
Refillable Water Bottle Station
These are water fountains specifically designed to refill bottles. Whether you bring your own water bottle into the Parks or want to reuse a water bottle you bought in your Park travels, these refillable bottle stations make it possible to refill your bottles without having to do that comical and unfruitful bottle tilt at a typical water fountain.
