Mobile Magic Bands
Hi, does anyone have any suggestions about getting magic bands before we travel? I’ve looked online and can find plain ones on Amazon for around £30 which is twice as much as I can find them for on the US Disneyshop.
Should I just deal with it and get them at that price, is there a cheaper way to get them or should I wait and buy them from somewhere as soon as we arrive? Thanks

I'd wait til you get there. Part of our first day ritual is going to Disney Springs to get our bands.

We’re in the same boat, staying offsite but hoping to get them in the airport when we land

Thanks for the advice guys, we fly into Sanford so will probably get some when we arrive. Is it only disney springs where I can buy them or do places like Walmart sell them?

You’ll get them at Disney Springs, the Disney outlets and any Disney park or resort hotel. The outlets will be cheaper but less options.

You can’t find them here really. I’d wait until before you go and either select ones online at least two months out if you are staying onsite or purchase them when you get there. There are some lovely new slap band ones in various colours and character designs out right now.

Apparently the slap bands have been pulled from sale according to a thread on here yesterday.
