Hi there,


I've never done this myself.....but it seems that the packing material is key.

instead of paying for shipping, why not contact Wegoshop or gardengrocer to do your shopping for you? THat way you can also get perishables shipped directly to your resort!! Just a thought. I used Marge from we go shop the past 2 years and LOVE her!!

I've never shipped food ahead, but I did use a grocery service this summer and LOVED it!

I did not ship food - I packed it. I only packed snack stuff for the parks (granola bars, peanuts, etc). I figured that the room that the food was taking in our suitcase would be taken up by souveniers. Worked out really well for us.


We didn't take any water or drinks but did take some disposable sippy cups (turned 5 when we were there DD and 2.5 year old DS). I am sure this is frowned upon (nothing was ever said to us though)

We didn't fill in the parks. We filled the cup -
