Default Wallet just said ouch even louder than before...

And here I thought I was only going to have to bugdet for snacks, balloons, and the occasional gift shop item. And then I see this...

Probably going to be very cool, very expensive, and something my daughter will beg for the first day.

That's amazing.

I've never, in 56 trips, purchased ears for either me or my kids.

This might change that...

We held out until the started making special versions. First was the gold ears for DL's 50th. Then the pirate versions to go with our costumes that year. Now there's dozens of different versions available at all times. Glad we haven't got into trying to collect them all.

As Disney finds more and more ways to pick our pockets, maybe it's time to buy Disney stock and share the wealth!

Exactly the price I had in mind.

Now my only fear is that this will mean the quality will be lacking and they go bad with a few hours of use. That's certainly the case with some of the other stuff they have been selling at the nightly shows. Hopefully these will be different.

Hopefully this one will last. Although I'm not sure I'd want to wear it on GRR.
