Disney Swag on a Budget

Hey guys! We received a lot of questions around where to get the best Disney apparel when we posted about our Disney World trip. With that, we thought we would put together a guide to ‘Disney Swag on a Budget’ to share some of the awesome looks you can get without breaking the bank!

We absolutely love Disney! But we all know a trip to Disney can add up quickly. Your outfits should not have to suffer just because your wallet is ha! We list some great items below from some of our favorite retailers, and we think you will be pleasantly surprised by the prices 🙂 Even if you don’t have a Disney trip coming up, it’s always a good idea to rock some Disney Swag. Happy shopping!

Disclosure: Some of the links below are affiliate links, meaning at no additional cost to you, we will earn a small commission if you click through and make a purchase.

      Awesome!! Let us know if any of them work out! People forget that it can rain at Disney World, so poncho is a must.

    Awesome! I’m a big Disney fan as well as my daughter! But we all know Disney can be expensive, so it is great to see some options that aren’t! Thanks for sharing!

Learning how to ski in your 30s is a little different than when the Olympians start at age 3 😅

I learned the hard way…with a few wipeouts and plenty of bruises. I may not be the next Eileen Gu, but I can absolutely excel at après-ski. 💁🏻‍♀️

A little over 4 hours from the Twin Cities, @bigpowderhornmtn in the UP was a great place to start. I took a lesson, made my way down a few green runs (or tumbled down), and honestly had a great time.

So where do Minnesotans think the best beginner hills are around here?

@lutsenmountains? @aftonalps? @buckhill? Somewhere else we should try before the season ends?

Have you tried this new group activity in the North Loop yet?? 

📍Fowling Warehouse opened up not too long ago and it’s such a fun + unique activity that you and your friends will love! 

It’s a blend between football and bowling 😆 so you split into teams and work together to hit the opponents pins down with the football. 

They have 21 lanes (**not 30 oops) and a full bar - perfect for a team outing or a group hang! We had a blast and couldn’t stop laughing 🤭. 

Think you’ll give it a try?

February showed up with its own mix of weight and warmth.

We made space for celebration where we could—culture, community, friendship, and love in all its forms—while staying present in what’s happening around us.

Holding both is complicated, but that’s where we are…🤍

We’re on a mission to find the coziest local cafe in the Twin Cities, and @momocafemn might be up there.

We love when a place feels like it was built with intention. This one comes from a Tibetan immigrant wanting to create a warm, inviting space around coffee, matcha, and community. You can just feel that when you walk in.

Tibetan artwork, unique matcha latte blends, comforting dumplings, and a space that makes you want to stay longer than planned.

What’s a cozy cafe you always come back to?

Only 4.5 hours from MSP to paradise. 🌴

If you’re looking for a tropical babymoon that doesn’t require a 12-hour travel day, Grand Cayman is the move!! A quick direct flight from MSP for fresh seafood, crystal clear beaches, and early bedtimes 🥰

Why it’s Babymoon-Friendly:
✨Zero Jet Lag: Little to no time zone change from MN depending on when you go. 
✨Quite Accessible: The island is small, fairly walkable, and very safe.
✨Perfect Pace: It’s built for early nights, with most of the excitement happening during the day. 
✨Easy Flight: With both Delta and Sun Country offering direct flights, you can get there in 4.5 hrs.

What to Do:
✔️Seven Mile Beach
✔️Snorkeling
✔️Catamarán Sail 
✔️Swim with Stingrays 
✔️Botanical Gardens 
✔️Crystal Caves 

Keeping it 💯: Grand Caymans is not a thrifty destination! We used hotel points and airline buddy passes to keep the costs down, but food and housing can get pretty pricey, so plan ahead! 3-4 nights is more than enough to experience this babymoon getaway. 

Let me know if you have any specific questions about where we stayed or excursions we booked!
