I read this on MouseSavers:

>>>The all-you-can-fit-in-a-box Disney-themed Mr. Potato Head toy ... For a flat rate ... you get as many parts as you can manage to fit into the provided box, as long as it closes and is not bulging. This toy is available at many locations at Walt Disney World... Here are some hints for getting the most for your money when buying this toy:
•If possible, buy one or more basic Mr. Potato Heads while you're still at home. You can get one cheaply from a discount store (or even a thrift store or yard sale, if you're really frugal). The head sold at Disney World is the same as the standard ones sold elsewhere, and it's the bulkiest part. Since will take up a lot of room in the box, skip it and load up on the Disney-exclusive parts! You may be able to make up multiple complete sets if you buy the heads separately.
•If you do buy the head at Disney World, be sure to open up the back and fill it up with parts! This is allowed<<< (and it goes on to describe a few other pointers).

Does this mean that you can bring a Mr. Potato Head (in it's packaging) into a Disney World store that was purchased, say, at Toys R Us? And that you should leave the head at home and just use the box for the parts? I should go to Toys R Us and buy one and leave the head at home, just take the empty box to the Disney World store?

Wondering.

They don't have all different kinds of candies like the candy stores in the mall. Maybe more than just taffy, but this was a big island of just taffy, all different flavors.

We didn't go in Goofy's Candy Shop, so there may be more variety there.

Your Wal-mart doesn't carry peach rings? I love them, too. And our Blockbusters carry them, too.

Aly had to bring in a resource from the southwest region of the US last year. We researched it and she brought in the following: pine nuts, Reese's Christmas trees (it was Dec)--pine industry for both, and peach rings (for the peach industry)...lol.

I never thought to look in Wal-Mart for peach rings, it's not a Super-Walmart so I always seem to forget that they carry some groceries LOL.

Dani is the candy-queen at our house. You'd never know that this kid did NOT eat refined sugar until her first b-day LOL, where she proceded to taste her cake and ice cream and made a nasty face ROFL. In her HO, a day without candy is like a day without ... water. She has a healthy appetite and loves many kinds of meats, fruit, veggies, et al, her fave veg is even broccoli, but she HAS to have her candy too.
