By Leave a Comment

When it comes to visiting Walt Disney World in September, rain is a MAJOR factor.

Frogg Toggs Poncho

While Central Florida has its fair share of precipitation throughout the year, there’s an uptick in September as it’s usually around the height of Atlantic Hurricane Season. Plus, since temperatures at the end of the month will tend to start dipping, guests drenched from the rain won’t dry off nearly as fast as they do at the height of summer. That’s why we ALWAYS have this essential from Amazon on-hand during September visits.

The Disney World Essentials That Are Cheaper on Amazon Than in the Parks

By Leave a Comment

When you’re thinking about essentials for your Disney World trip, you may be thinking about getting a few of them when you’re already in Disney World, because what if you don’t need it, you brought it from home, and then took up that space in your bag?

Let’s take a look at what’s in the first bag!

Here’s the thing, though: you may be surprised to see just how much MORE some of those items will cost you in Disney World. Whereas, if you buy them online ahead of time, you’ll spend less money, and if you don’t end up using them, well, Amazon has a pretty solid return policy (especially if you haven’t opened the item).

Sure, you could buy one of those plastic ponchos they sell at Disney World, but our favorite reusable poncho is far more comfortable — and right now, it’s on SALE on Amazon!
