Come Shop The Disney Clearance Outlet With Me!

Every few months I like to check out the Disney Character Warehouse, our local clearance outlet for all the WDW parks. Almost everything in the store is at least 50% off the in-park prices, so I *HIGHLY* recommend a visit if you're here on vacation. 

   I always take a ton of pictures for my IG Story when I shop here, but this was a few weeks ago and I completely forgot to post them, ha. So instead you get a REAL LIVE BLOG POST WHAAAAAT.

  Now, there are two Character Warehouse locations, but since both have the same merchandise, I recommend this one in the Premium Outlets on Vineland. It's bigger than the one on I-drive, and not far from Disney Springs.

Before you ask, none of this is available online. At least not through Disney. You're likely to find re-sellers on eBay offering a lot of these things, though.

So with that caveat, let's take a look around!

 Lots of cute Christmas goodies:

Those velvet Mickey Santa backpacks were $45, down from $90.

And these little coin pouches were only $10.

Lots and LOTS of iron-on patches:

These sets were all $8, down from $20. They make me want to buy an old school jean jacket again and cover it with patches.

Cute Toy Story hair clips:

 I think they were $4?

As you can imagine I have to exercise a LOT of self-control in this store... but I did buy this:

Miss Mindy is one of my favorite artists, and I've been pining over her Mickey & Minnie vinyl figs since they first came out. Minne here was only $15, down from $30, I think?

And good news for the rest of you: Minnie is only $17 on Amazon right now. So apparently she's being clearanced everywhere. (And her matching Mickey is $22, so I should probably buy him soon.)

Here's a pic from Miss Mindy's page of the two together:

Speaking of art, there are usually some drool-worthy matted prints here from WonderGround gallery:
 
 

This adorable Bambi by Joey is $20 down from $40.

 Same for these Celebration matted prints.

There were a bunch of boxed sets of these Haunted Mansion plushes:




Plus the Headless Horseman with Mr. Toad:


Both boxes were $30 each.


The cutest chip clips:

... and another thing I had to buy:

My new favorite magnet! This Donald is layered acrylic, and cost $5.

There was such an enormous stack of these Haunted Mansion doorbell knockers that I bet you can find a bunch of them on eBay right now:

The rusted metallic finish is pretty cool, but as soon as I push the button I think you'll see why so many are here:



Um.

Huh.


Moooving on!

I also bought these holo ears. Ostensibly to give away to one of you, but we'll see if John can pry them out of my hands. :D

Fantabulous apron:

I don't remember the price, but it was too high for me to try to turn the bottom into a skirt. :D (Those bat pockets, though!)

Egadz, I have so many more pictures!

LIGHTNING ROUND:

This sequined tee was only $13, y'all. I'm on the verge of non-buyer's remorse over here.

Adorable $6 Alice necklaces:

And these teeny earrings were $1.99 per pair:





 If you're thinking you would spend all your money here, then I can tell you you are CORRECT. Temptations at every turn!

Trader Sam's purse:

This was $30 down from $65.



There are almost always a few Dooney & Bourke styles here.

The CUTEST coin pouches:

I'm realizing I didn't take many pics of clothing, but there are racks and racks of shirts:

I should note these stores get merch from ALL the Disney parks world-wide. I remember one time there was a big shipment of stuff from Hong Kong, which was pretty incredible.

You'll also see overstock from events like marathons and Food & Wine:

 


Some stunning Rapunzel dresses for tweens:


This was $150, not sure of the original price.

I've seen women's dresses here from the Cherry Tree Lane shop in Disney Springs, too.

There are always LOTS of phone cases:

And look how adorable these are!

Here's one for the WDW die-hards who've grown to love our 90s-era road signs:

And I don't know who could EVER use this Dumbo case... but it's cute!

:D

I'll leave you with the best deal in the whole store:

Eeeeee!! C'mon. It'd be a crime NOT to buy a couple of these, right?

At least one of those rainbow ears is joining the rest of our Squeegineer Prizes this month, so you guys have a chance to win them here, if nothing else!

Which reminds me: We just picked our first ever Squeegineer winners for the month of January, woot woot! So Amanda & Ellen, watch your e-mail for a note from John. Once you choose your prizes we'll get those shipped out ASAP.

Oh hey, since I have Miss Mindy's art on the brain, I have to show you her newest Jack & Sally figures:

 
Miss Mindy Nightmare Before Christmas

I'm not even the biggest NBC fan, but DANG these are awesome. His dapper little umbrella! Her poofy skull bow! So good.
