Buy rain ponchos ahead of time??
| Fri, 09-01-2006 - 9:17am |
What color are the ponchos sold in Disney stores in parks? I thought I'd avoid the confusion of losing my kids by getting a different color ahead of time, but not sure where to look. They are ages 7 and 3. I suppose we should get something too. We are leaving Sept. 18.
thanks,

the ones we bought last week were clear. Well, milky, but clear. We brought our own rain gear but hte 2 days we left it in our room is poured!!
Hope you have good weather!

We bought cheap ones from a dollar store before we went last year and took zip-loc bags to stuff them into when they were wet.
They worked just fine and cost $1.00 or so instread of $7.00 but the WDW ones are prettier LOL!
We used them almost every day at some point in SEptember last year, but only in short bursts and never for the whole day.

I would definitely buy before you go.
The Disney ones we bought on our 2002 trip were yellow with Mickey on the back. They held up quite well, despite the fact we used them EVERY DAY (it poured non-stop that trip :(...
Anyway, I bought some at the Dollar Tree that were 2 to a pack for our 04 and 05 trips, and never used them. I think I bought yellow, but they have blue, clear, orange, etc. They are quite flimsy, but I purchased several packages. Then, in Target's $$ spot this summer, they had child sized ponchos for $1. I picked up a couple to save for our 07 trip for my youngest DS. He's short, and the regular ponchos from the Dollar Tree are way too long on him.
HTH's!
