If you are a fan of Disney, then you know that having the best Disney merchandise to celebrate your favorite brand of entertainment is essential. But it can also cost a lot of money.
“It’s no secret that Disney merch can come with a hefty price tag. However, you don’t have to spend a ton to get good quality Disney merch. Whether you’re prepping for your next Disney trip or need a gift for the Disney-lover in your life there are plenty of options out there!” said Jayme Keffalas, a travel blogger with a heavy emphasis on Disney content for The Northern Prepster.
Here are five of the best places to buy cheap Disney merch.

Etsy
“Etsy is my go-to if I’m looking for something super niche Disney,” Keffalas said, adding that the online retailer is the perfect spot to find super specific pieces, vintage items or even customized pieces.
“Not only can you typically find a good deal, you’re also supporting small businesses!” Keffalas said.
Amazon
Another option is online retailer Amazon.
One of Keffalas’ favorite “hacks” involves buying licensed Disney shirts on Amazon for a discounted price, especially when you compare what they are listed for on Disney’s own website.
Target
Keffalas pointed out that Disney has a collaboration with Target and in some locations customers can even find mini Disney Store setups.
“The key to getting a good deal on these items is using Target’s app to find deals on items like toys or clothes,” Keffalas explained. “And take it a step further by getting 5% off with their debit or credit card (this discount also applies to Disney gift cards!).”
Disney Character Warehouse
Another option is the Disney Character Warehouse.
“If we drive to Disney World, we sometimes stop here and end up always finding amazing deals,” said Steve Griswold of Pixie Vacations, adding that Disney shoppers can also find overstock and seasonal items here.
“So if the Epcot food and wine festival ended a month ago, you will find that merchandise here,” Griswold explained. “If Christmas ended two weeks ago, that extra stock will be here. Some items can be 50% off or even lower. You will find everything from all Disney parks and resorts merchandise here.”
Disney Cast Connection and Property Control
According to Griswold, if you are a Disney cast member or a friend of a Disney cast member and invited to go, Disney Cast Connection and Property Control is the place to visit on Disney World property. You can find offers on House of Mouse merchandise at low prices.
Similar to the Disney Character Warehouse, Disney Cast Connection and Property Control has extra stock or event-specific items that are no longer useful to the park staff.
“Property control also will sometimes have things like Disney hotel furniture or office items from Disney property starting at like one dollar or things like metal filing cabinets and massive office desks,” Griswold said. “When a Disney Hotel redoes the room decor, chairs, tables, headboards, lamps, paintings, mirrors can show up here for like $50.”
