I Splurged on Two of the Coolest Things You Can Buy in the Italy Pavilion in EPCOT — Here’s What I Bought

By Madeleine Zaharchuk 2 Comments

I go to Disney World a lot. More than most people. I don’t say this to brag — if anything, I go too much. But when you go to the parks as often as I do, you tend to become a little souvenir blind. What does that mean? Well, I’ve seen new t-shirts come and go. I’ve seen more new ears, park bags, and plush characters than I can count. After a while, it all starts to blur together. I’ve gone numb. You can’t impress me with a basic Spirit Jersey, Disney!

EPCOT

But on my recent visit to EPCOT, something came over me. I splurged on not one, but TWO big souvenirs. And we’re not talking silly little $20 trinkets. I went big. It was a rush. Wanna see what I got?

By Jordan-Paige Sudduth 3 Comments

Dining in Disney World isn’t cheap, that much is for sure, so we’re always on the lookout for the best deals you can find while you’re experiencing the parks.

EPCOT

Most of the time, we say these deals are found at quick service locations around the parks, not at table service restaurants, and certainly not those with prix-fixe meals. However, that’s changing, because there’s a NEW $29 prix-fixe meal coming to a restaurant in EPCOT this summer, and you won’t want to miss it!
