You can buy refillable cups only for use in the food court of the resort you are staying at for the duratioin of your stay. They are not for use in the parks, there is nowhere to refill them there.

The mugs are only for the resorts (not the parks) You have to buy seperate ones for BB but you can use them in TL and vic versa. Thats what I was told last year anyway.

Im sure there used to be refillable cups in the parks but dont recall seeing them for a good few years. Im sure they just sell souvenir mugs at Disney now.

The hotel mugs cause some debate as many people beleive theyre good for life, and I have seen many people using old designs without being questioned.

You can put the usual beverages coke, sprite T coffee. Definitely worth a punt.

The mugs for the water parks are only good for that day, though you can buy a sticker that activates the scanner at the drink sation on a return trip.

We bought one from Blizzard Beach last year and took it with us this year to use. It is only for use at the water parks (you can use it in both). I can't remember exactly how much it was but you get a bar code which is scanned at the drinks machine when you want to refill it. The bar code only lasts for the day but was good value as we shared the cup. The resort mugs are only for the resorts and as far as I am aware are for the duration of your stay but again excellent value for money.

Years ago you used be able to buy disney beakers in the park and then
get them re-filled at any kiosk but I haven't seen them each
time I've been since.

as you enter the water parks there is usually someone selling the refillable mugs. you buy the mug and a sticker with a barcode on it to put on the mug. when you want to refill it you take it to a vendor, scan the barcode and get your drink. the barcode only lasts one day. however, if you take it to a water park on a different day (either water park, it does not have to be the same one) you can pay a small amount and get a new sticker with a new barcode on it. this is only for water parks, not for theme parks.

there used to be a cold drinks station ( shaped like an igloo) in epcot for sampling soft drinks. Is it still there???

p.s. I've started a new thread for this ....see free drinks at epcot for more detail.

I believe you can only get "sodas" ie. fizzy drinks, plus iced tea & coffee. Fruit juice isn't an option. We've never bothered as my DDs don't like anything fizzy!

can you still get Hot Choc in the hotel mugs? We used to love hot choc before bed after a long day at the parks

[judyjude]

We were at the POR last Oct & we got hot Choc there. It was lovely.

[Orlando-Sky]

Yep the hot choc is the best in the world..........

The water park one you can use again on your next holiday, $5 for the day..
for the new barcode........
