I'm sorry, this isn't about the parks, but I didn't quite know where to place it. I was in Wal Mart yesterday and they now market Disney Princess fresh flower bouquets !! The only saving grace is they cost just $ 3.88 like the regular arrangements, and they are quite pretty. they include a glitter covered star wand type thing, and the flowers are glitter sprayed. The plastic protective wrap is pink and has the Princess photos all around. Now my little princess thinks she needs flowers every time I go to Wal Mart, which of course was the store's idea all along !

Did you see the Princess tvs they had for sale? Princess #2 wants one...well she really needs one! :rolleyes:

Didn't see the flowers (but I wasn't really looking), I'll have to check them out; one every once in awhile wouldn't be too bad. :wave:

I'm almost to the point where I don't want to buy anything Disney unless it's from a store (rare, since they haven't carried anything adult, per se, in a while) or from WDW. All this merchandising has gotten totally out of control, IMHO. To me, the plethora of Disney merchandise available now means that it's not special like it once was. :(

Wow ! Somehow I never found this forum. Guess the main 3 one the main page keep me so busy I haven't explored enough.

But, at least I know now I'm in good company, Tig's Mom. I must hear " but I REALLLY NEEEED IT !" at least once every 48 hours ! :lol: :lol: At least for now the flowers have kept her happy. The thing she keeps asking for is a Princess car ! I know they used to have a battery powered ride on that was Cinderella's coach with the white horses. Rosebud was just born then, and I didn't have anywhere to store it until she was big enough. Now its discontinued. :brick: I keep checking eBay, but so far no luck.

What, you mean the Mickey & Donald Kleenex box doesn't do it for you?:lol:

(I get what you mean... but I bought it anyway :brick: )

Everything my son sees, he really, really needs !! He is also doing a good job of teaching his two year old sister how to need everything as well!

And, I LOVE those princess and mickey tvs and other electronics. We just bought the kids a tv for their play room a couple of years ago, so I can't justify buying one of these, but I do like them!
