Like I say I'm not trying to defend the price just explaining why the marketplace will fulfill this price. If you look around their website you'll find all their shirts go for well more than $14.99.

And Disney just struck a deal with K-Mart last year, not sure about Target... they used to do a lot of stuff with Target. I can't vouch for the quality.
Originally Posted By maui512 I love the Reyn shirt. I pre-ordered but haven't received it yet. I'm excited. Thanks for the link Rebekah. I hadn't checked their site for about a week. Lori

I called up the airline, only to be told...well...we'll see what we can do. I made the comment I worked for Disney, and was told, OH REALLY....DONT YOU JUST LOVE STITCH!!!!! I admitted I was a Stitchaholic, only to learn that the reservationist on the other end of the line WAS ALSO A STITCHAHOLIC.... The upshot is, the spouse and I are sitting together on the flights..... Gotta love that blue guy.... Also, fellow Stitchaholics, Hilo Hattie has some exclusive shirts that are just adorable. Alas, none in adult sizes, but the blue Stitch shirt is just as cute as can be. According to management, they've been selling at a fast clip. For those of you in the Disneyland area, check out the store at The Block at Orange.... Your fellow "stitchie" Mushu
