Christmas MagicBands Front
You might remember that we spotted an addition to the Coming Soon! section of shopDisney a few days ago that got us pretty pumped. That’s right, there’s a whole new way to carry your tickets around the parks and that’s with Slap Bracelet MagicBands!
Welcome back, DFB friends! We’re here with another DFB Video, and today we’re talking about the mishaps you can encounter in Disney World!

While there are so many wonderful things to see, do, and eat in the parks, problems just tend to happen on vacations (we’ve all been there and done that). But, sometimes, there are a few difficulties that we don’t expect to happen while we’re staying at Disney World. Don’t worry — the DFB team has got you covered!
The FuelRod saga continues! Just days after it was announced that a class action lawsuit had been filed against the portable (once-upon-a-time-unlimited-swappable) charger, FuelRod appears to be reversing its decision to charge for charger swaps!
Swapping Fee Sticker
After creating quite a stir online (and in DFB comments!), it appears that FuelRod stations at Walt Disney World locations are not currently advising of the new fee. [Read more…]

Several special holiday menus have popped up already around Disney for guests to choose from, like over at the Rose and Crown Dining Room, Boatwright’s, and The Wave, but we’ve found a few more to share with you today! These menus will be available for guests to enjoy on Thursday, November 28.
The reduction of single-use plastics has become a hot topic around the country, and there are several states where you’ll see political pushes to do so.
Disney Conservation Fund Goals
And a new law in California is about to nudge those efforts along a lot faster. And it will likely affect your stay at Disneyland.
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!
Minnie Mouse Reversible Tote
We’ve spotted two red-and-black tote bag designs around the World, including this solid black version with graphic Minnie touches. [Read more…]

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! At the D23 Expo yesterday it was revealed that Disney is partnering with Target as they never have before: by launching Disney Stores right inside existing Targets!
ShopDisney at Target!
The new displays will bring more than 450 items to the “shop-in-shop”, including 100-plus products you could previously only find in proper Disney retail locations. [Read more…]
If you were worried that Epcot’s new transformation might phase out ALL of the learning opportunities of the park’s original mission, perhaps Moana can calm your fears because D23 gave us a few more details about Journey of Water — including something that sounds a little educational.

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.
