I have a soap from a trip many years ago that is a full sculpture of Mickey instead of the bar with the Mickey imprint.

I have a nametag with Dale on it. =3 My favorite chipmunk, got it secretly. I have the cast only telecasts, which are neat, I have the cast only placard cast wore during the first Pirate's and Princess Party. I've got cast only tickets to special night events, my premiere Disney Adventure's Pin, the frame they gave us last Christmas... Uhm... And an artist watch, my favorite souviner. =3 Cast discount on that was awesome, and considering mine's REALLY the only one of its kind in the world, I cherish it.

I cart all the pens around in my purse and the soaps and shampoos are stock piled in a linen closet.

I also have a similar folder from the DLH.

Tomorrow sure was great (20 years ago)

Did that make any sense to anyone?

Originally Posted By bloona I read that theyve altered the design of the soaps in the hotels now, I have the black (packaging) rectangular ones with Mickey on . What are they now?
Originally Posted By NikkiLOVESMickey The soaps are round now and packaged in clear cellophane. The cellophane is sealed in the center with a light blue sticker with Mickey's head in the center. They look very upscale in comparison to the old packaging.
Originally Posted By MinnieSummer I save everything but my latest thing is the mickey shpaed plastic dishes that the kids meals come in. My husband thinks I'm insane everytime I stick one in my purse but I use them all the time for my DD. It even makes it through the dishwasher (top shelf). I also have a large collection of pens but alas only one black with gold lettering. The other black ones have silver lettering. I actually had enough of the round mickey coasters to make a deck of cards out of.
