As of today, prices have increased for many of the bestselling merchandise items at Disney Parks. Included in the price increases are the ever-popular ear headbands, bubble wands, and misting fans.
Ear headbands are now $27.99, up from $24.99.
Bubble wands are now $27.00, up from $25.00.
Misting fans are now $22.00, up from $20.00.
These prices are now the standard costs for both domestic Disney Resorts, so guests are advised to plan accordingly.
Puzzle prices went up $2 about a month ago. They were $19.99 but they’re $21.99 now.
I will plan accordingly, I will plan on not purchasing them.
There will be more coming. $15 an hour folks…
Yes, prices go UP….. Yes, it is a fact of life…… YES Disney really tries to sock it to you….

It’s always interesting to me that people like to refer to Universal Studios as being cheaper.

But it is NOT that much cheaper at Universal.
Don’t complain, just don’t buy the stuff. Disney always keeps tabs on their sales. Remember the “Supply and Demand” you learned in school? Apply it to Disney. When folks years ago stopped staying in the high priced Disney hotels, Disney halted new construction. Guess times must be good for everyone now, but what goes around comes around.
Prices increase while quality decreases. They increased spirit jerseys by $5.00 too. The parks are already so expensive.
