What is your oddest Disney parks souvenir?
We have a jar of Authentic "Roman Ruins Stink Juice" from SSE. It's in a sealed bag inside a small jar inside a larger jar. We also have some of the red reflectors from Mickey's arm that was on the SSE ball.
What do you have?

Well, it's a little more funny than odd but when I was a kid, I bought those invisible dog leashes from the Magic Shop on Main. I don't know, it sounded amazing to me at the time.

Oh Man! I wanted one of those so badly when I was little but my mom wouldn't buy me one! LOL, but I thought it was so cool at the time!!!

I have two trays from the Sunshine Seasons food court in The Land (purchased legitimately.. not pocketed - my pockets aren't that big). They're the old, happy yellow ones from before the most recent rehab and I use them all the time.

Okay, who's selling the stink juice?

I think I have a Golden Horse Shoe Revue boot shaped mug from the 80's. That is the oldest thing I have I think, unless something is buried in a box.

We saved shopping bags from the parks. In fact, we still have a bunch of bags from the old Disney Shopping Village - those ugly 70's yellow & white ones.

I have a bunch of the Disney shopping bags, since we try to reuse our plastic bags as much as we can (the newer blue and white bags).
In fact my lunch today was in a Disney bag, a strange coincidence!
As for wierd souveiners, I think the cream of my crop is a (legitamitly purchased) 3X3 foot square piece of the Imagination! pavillion carpet- you know they purple carpet with the Imagination! lightbulb logo.
It is on the floor in my bedroom, right under the huge Figment towel hanging on my wall. I need to find the pic I took of it!

I think we have all kept the bags.....But try this one do you save the tags for your merch? I don't but I know a co worker that does. She loves them because they have mickey on them. I do keep all the receipts from the trips, this is so I can look back in 10, 20, 30, etc years and see how much things cost compared to then.

I still have the punched out key card from the Disneyland Hotel that let you access the concierge breakfast area and express elevator to the ground. It's from our visit when CA was just starting to be built, so we got to see all the area's being dug out from our hotel window.

A mini-beer stein that DH won in the Biergarden's yodeling contest. It's so small that it's useful for nothing except collecting dust on our dresser. Still, we keep it around.
We also used to keep the bags, until one day I just looked at them and asked, "Why?" We started using them shortly after that.

You've got to know someone!
My DW keeps all the boxes that our Disney stuff has came in. Also, we have a few of the Disney extruded plastic figures. You know the ones that came out of the coin op machines they used to have in the parks years and years ago.

I have all the bags from our trips between '99 and '06 (the last time I went). I also keep receipts, napkins, park guides, etc. I believe I even have some the merchandise tags from my last trip.
but, I believe that the oddest thing I have kept as a souvenir is either a cup from some hot chocolate from MVMCP, or some toasted/candied nuts from the party (yes, I still have a couple of them, Dr. I kept them for the wrapper and just couldn't finish them a week after our trip)...

Would collecting park maps be considered odd? I have too many to count.
