Very well done! I have never thought about all the Disney shirts I have now. I would say that half of mine are still sitting with their tags on as I have so many different ones to wear.
Definitely a sign you're a WDW nut! When you get home with a T-shirt from the park you bought because you really wanted to wear it when you purchased it, but once you get it home it suddenly becomes a "cherished souvenir". :mickey:
Or the opposite, too: you just have to have that t-shirt when you're in the parks, but when you get home, you open up your drawer, see all your Mickey shirts and ask "what was I thinking?!" :lol:

Haha I am so the same way on both accounts! I have enough shirts to stay at WDW with WDW shirts and not run out. And just this last trip, I bought a shirt that looks awesome, it is the green one with what I am guessing are vinyl sew on patches of the Epcot icons, like World of Motion and Communicore etc. But it isn't very practical to wear or wash, I probably shouldn't have gotten it. :)

when you go to a Disney Store with family, and you know your 2 weeks late asking, but you grab a CM, and ask if they have any more anniversary Ears left... and Allison gives a half-smile and says 'you must be hardcore'... and comes back not only witha set of 25th silvers... but a clearance tee in my size w/ mickey sketches over the years!...

The best thing you could do is try and find a way to write in to corporate about it.

I personally lined up at my local Disney store to get a set, sticker, and then beat all the little kids in answering a trivia question to get the button. I was unaware that it was a Multiple choice question so the guy only read half the question :D

ohhh, thats right i got a couple of holo-stickers as well... and some dirty looks, since, as you know, you normally cannot find ears outside the parks... had several ppl ask me about them, and had one 12 YO(DD) turning 10 shades of red... well of course a was wearing them in the mall!...

but you see, the best part was i got the ears YESTERDAY... 22apr12

You know you're a WDW nut when.... the same week that you come back from WDW you buy *2* 50 PIN LOTS of pins from EBay so you will have plenty of pins to trade and give away when you go back..... in 365 days.

When you tell your child: 'Por Favor Mantengase Alejado de las Puertas' as you open the door to head off to work!

When your 3-year-old sings "There's a great big beautiful tomorrow" and I couldn't be more proud!

I know this one is more for a DL nut, but here goes...

While watching the description of a trip to Hawaii on "The Price is Right", you hear a few notes of the background music and realize it's part of the music from the film "The Flavor of Hawaii" that is shown before the Tiki Garden show.

...bonus points if you and your spouse realize it at the same time and look at each other with that goofy "hey, I know that music" look on your faces. :)
