Unfortunately, my DD grew up and we have been strollerless for our last 5 or so trips. The stroller served 2 purposes back then: a mule and a place for DD to relax. Now that we don't have it, I miss the mule part. Also, I have become more frugal as WDW has skyrocketed their prices. I am seriously considering buying a used stroller to use as a mule.
Here me out for a second. Yes, I could rent a locker but that is a hassle. With a stroller, it can go with you everywhere. Parking it is easy, you can leave it parked where it is for a while, and you don't have to lug around that backpack with everything in it. I know it is better to pack light. However, there is a need for a few extra things in the heat/humidity of FL. You need flip flops to put on for water rides and cool off in the fountains. You need sunscreen (at least I do because I do not want to have skin cancer surgery again). You need to be able to carry water. Having that ice cold misting fan is nice. I can even save by having one of those backpack cooler to bring my own drinks and lunch in.
Does this sound like a hassle? We drive so space is no issue.
