Money Saver Monday!!
When you are visiting a Disney Park almost everywhere you look you will see park goers sporting those lovely Disney pins. You can buy them and trade them for some extra special Disney fun! While this hobby can be a TON of fun it can also cost you a TON of money.
Why not trade Disney pins in the parks rather than buying them? Okay, I know it can be super duper enticing to visit those pin carts while walking around the parks. Disney is always coming up with some very creative pins for all to enjoy. But you must keep in mind at $6.95 to $12.95 per pin…this can be very pricey.
Try to purchase less expensive pins before you leave for your trip and trade them with cast members at the parks for pins that you would like. Inexpensive pins can be purchased at Ebay.com and Pinfinder.com. Both Ebay and Pinfinder offer ways to purchase pins in lots. This is also a great option for someone that is just getting started in trading.
Before purchasing, be sure that you understand pin trading rules. Tradable pins are Disney pins that are enamel or enamel cloisonné with a metal base and a Disney copyright engraved on the back.

Are you a pin trader/collector? I would love to know if you have used any of the websites above to start/maintain your collection.
See ya real soon!!
