Well it started on the 25th anniversary. My brother and I got the 25th anniversary ears. I still have our ears. Now I also have the 50th anniversary ones, Christmas ones and the New Years ears from this year. I'm a happy camper!

edited to say: I also love to get t-shirts. I like to collect things, so that is what I have, a lot of things that say Disneyland from the bank to the magnets!

I have to pick up something, anything from Pieces of Eight every time I go. I usually snag several POTC antenna balls for my car while I'm there (among other things). I keep a supply on hand at all times because every few months someone swipes the one off my antenna!

Oh please! What is the big deal with a favorites thread?

My favorites by the way are my mini snowglobes. I buy only Mickey and Tink. Love them.

We love to get any new t-shirts that come out,(you should see our collection, I am going to have them all made into a king size, wait make that about 5 king size quilts, that's how many we have.) I love pin collecting to the chagrin of hubby's wallet, we have literally spent thousands of $$$$$ on pins, but they look great on a cork bulletin board in my office, Mouse ears, always mouse ears, if they have something special for each promotion, got the 50th and the new ones that light up! I also love to bring home Disney candy items, since they will not ship candy, we try to get our favorite sweets while we are there. And of course we buy a couple of Christmas ornaments each year, usually dated. I absolutely love the shorts and stretch tank camis that I got in WDW last summer. I live in them, well in fact my entire wardrobe is pretty much Disney logo or character stuff!!! And when I cannot get to the Parks I shop at Disneyshopping .com for clothing, home decor and of course, presents for everyone's birthday.
And what is wrong with starting "favorites threads"? I think it is great fun to find out what everyone else likes and it lets you know a little more about all our compadres here on the boards. It is a way of sharing a love for all things "favorite Disney"!!!! Go for it! I will join in any of those threads.
Love, and Have a magical Day!

Personally, I collect the mini-snowblobes. I have Pirates, Indiana Jones, Splash Mountain, and the Haunted Mansion so far. I'm not sure of how many there are and the availability of them, but I understand there's one for the Matterhorn as well.

The free ones (i.e., Jungle Cruise map, certificate from piloting the Mark Twain or pulling the Sword from the Stone).

I love salt and Pepper shakers. On our last trip i got a set with Pooh and Eeyore and one of Lilo and stitch. Ofcourse, they are too cute to actually use...

Things I like to get on every trip-

New t-shirts (we like to joke that when our DL shirt is worn out it's time for another trip)
Refrigerator magnet
Hardcover Disneyland book- I've got 5 of them now from 1996 through the 2006 version
A pin or two
Frames for favorite photographs

:D

I've got to go with the antenna balls here, the ones that actually say Disneyland on them. I just bought three from the Disney store in my mall (all Christmas themed) but they're blank so not as cool.

Cool Runnings,
Doc

ah, yes. The antenna ball. Me too. We bought 2 of just about all they had last trip in case they weren't available on our next trip.

Snowglobes of course!! Also tees and sweatshirts. And sadly, I tend to forget my coat each year at Christmas, so I usually have to buy a new coat too...

I forgot about clothing! I always have to buy at least one shirt, but it's usually more like 3-4. :p

Your name should be Grumpy Old Man! Good heavens....if it bothers you that much, why post a sarcastic remark? It took energy to do it, why spend the time?

I must bring home Rocky Road and the kids must get new Ears every trip. New hoodies for the family are a must have too.

i like collecting disneyland maps. i got this beautiful one from GCH, and i see it every day when i wake up. i also have a few maps you get when you enter the park, and the map from july 17 2005. i also have a map of paris because it reminds me of the shape of disneyland :) funny thing is i suck at geography. i secretly plan out what order of rides i go on, when i look at a DL map. its fun.

Did you get the Jungle Cruise map?


Hmm I always have to get a new hat of some sort.. Last trip I got a Minnie headband, but this time I reaally want the Mickey Santa hat which was totally sold out in adult sizes last time.

Aside from that I really like the princess jewelry boxes, they're different everytime and I've got 2 so far.

The mini snow globes sound cute, I'm going to look for those!

I always buy a new sterling silver charm for my Disney charm bracelet. I only buy charms when I am at the resort and I wear the bracelet every day I am there. It has been on all the rides with me and is getting pretty full. When I wear it at home it brings back all those special Disney memories :)
