So my wife and I went to our first trip to a Disney character warehouse store today here in south Florida. OMG it was amazing!!!!! As we walked I talked to the first CM that I could find. I told her that while at our trip to Disney world 2 weeks ago we started getting into pin trading. Once I said pin trading she was so excited . She explained that every CM there has a landyard and they have a pin book in the back that almost no one knows about. She pointed us to the pins that we can buy and said she would be back with the book. They didn't have any LE pins but we got at least 1 of every pin there. For $0.99-$1.99 a pin I'm sure everyone would buy at least one of every pin. While grabbing one of every pin we found the 2 pin hidden Mickey mystery packs. For $4.99 a pack I ended up with 10 of them. I knew that with getting so many of the mystery packs that we would get a bit of doubles, but that just means more trader pins. After making sure we had on of every pin my wife made her way over to the Tsum Tsum. She grab one of each that they had. She was very excited about that. Finally the CM came back from the back with this huge book of pins. Luckily we had 8 pins with us to trade. We traded 2 each with the book and then made our way to each CM to see what they had on their landyards. A couple of them had the mystery trades, where the pin was backwards. We traded for a couple of those. After all the trading we made it to the checkout. We spent a total of $103 for everything!!! We made out with 38 new pins for our collection. In that we have 2 complete hidden Mickey sets. Plus we have 8 new trader pins. So 46 new pins in total. We feel that we made out very good and we had a blast at the same time. This is something we are going to start doing once a month.
 
Yeah!!! Go Sawgrass!! :rock:

They also get the fancy purses in there sometimes. Like I found an AWESOME haul that I talked about here: x

I love that store so much. I think it's probably a good thing that I have to go to college far away. :lol:

Also, if you call ahead they can put stuff on hold for you! (I think. Or at least they used to. I know that they still do guest holds though. I'm pretty sure you can make them over the phone.)
 
Im planning on stopping by a Character Warehouse at the end of the month. Im so excited to get my hands on some new pins :) Hope I have as much fun as you did :)
 
That's GREAT!! I love going to the Character Warehouse when I'm down in Florida!! I can usually find something I want lol (that's not hard when it comes to Disney!)
Congrats on the haul!!

Yes all the pins we got are 100% authentic. When I was putting the pins up on PinPics I found out that the pins are from 2011. So they are a little older but that doesn't matter to be at all. Pins are pins. Yes this place is awesome!!
