funny keepsakes or non traditional souvenirs

[The MadHatter]

usually anything free in the room...shampoos, towels pens, sometimes the pillowcases if i think they will match my bedroom set. I also have a screw collection at my house so i usually take out screws from any furniture in the room but only if i think the screws wont leave the furniture too unstable.

I always keep one wrapper from a Mickey pop and it gets put in the Disney photo album for that year. On my first trip my grandpa loved to buy me Mickey pops so now I keep one wrapper every year in his honor.

A saucer size paper plate that my almond pretzel came on sits in my cupboard. Has Walt Disney World all around the edge of it. Unused fast passes for Test Track. Maps of the parks (going back to 1983).

We keep nearly everything that has something about Disney on it. Napkins, room pens, cards, maps, room keys, etc... We even still have the robots that you could build in Innoventions back in 2007. I have a box with scrap papers, pens, and other stuff that I just kept while at the parks. I even have a foil hot dog wrapper from Casey's Corner. :ROFLOL:

That explains why our bed collapsed at PORS on our last visit,here's me thinking I'd put on weight.:ROFLOL:

So I'm guessing you must have a background in safety engineering that allows you to decide what screws are safe to steal and which are not?:shrug:

I always keep my resort keys. I also keep park maps, fastpasses that don't get used, My monorail co-pilots license , some wdw napkins, and anything else that i feel would make a good keepsake.

We have all of our Key's, I personally do not think that is so weird. We have every refillable resort mug, even some from our family members that were not ours. We have tons of park maps too. My wife also likes to take the soaps and the shampoos from Mousekeeping every day and stick them in her suitcase. She brings her own soap and shampoo from home, and just stashes the WDW stuff in the suitcase. We have a big pile of them in the shelf closet in our master bathroom.

But the pens, omg the pens. We have probably close to 100 of the pens that you sign your meal tickets with. She takes them to, and uses them at work.

Some of the odd things that we do have are the ticket books that our checks have come in from Le Cellier and the California Grill, we have a drink mug from Liberty Tree Tavern.

We do have a few things that you cant buy, like buttons from World Showcase Performers and some special pins that you can only get from experiences, not for a price.

one of the weird things we have is a cloth napkin form California grill that has the california grill emblem on it

Every time we go to the Polynesian for lunch (we've never stayed there), even if it's only for drinks, DH always asks for a lei at guest services. I must have about 100 of them!

Enough to last me till my next trip. What can I say....it's the little things that make me smile.

:sohappy::sohappy::sohappy: YES! :sohappy::sohappy::sohappy:

I was waiting to read about another scrapbooker!

I have KTTW cards, 1st visit button, napkins, MNSSHP hard tickets, Photopass cards, MNSSHP bracelets, park maps, times guides, some quick service takeout menus, everything and anything! :wave:

We have several scrapbooks from room keys, EMH bands, Birthday buttons, maps, hotel guides, and Mickey pops. And everything else my husband thought had to be save.:lol:

I guess the weirdest thing that I have saved would be some confetti from Pleasure Island's nightly New Year's Eve Celebration. :lookaroun
