15. Disney’s Character Warehouse

Not on property, however for Bargain hunters consider traveling to Disney’s Character Warehouse’s. Here guests can browse discounted Disney souvenirs. Many from past years, such as recent milestones or anniversaries. The great thing about this shop, besides the prices, is you never know what you will find. There are 2 locations, however the one located at the Orlando Premium Outlets is better. An Uber cost calculator estimated a $12 cost (from Pop Century to the Orlando Premium Outlets), or a $24 round trip (plus tip). The savings may just be worth it, if spending time at the Outlets is appealing to you, or if you have your own transportation.
