The Villas at Disney's Grand Californian Owners & Lovers Group - 3.0

I wasn’t in the VDH store…. so it very well could have been in there. Our October DLand trip was such a whirlwind that I didn’t look as closely at merchandise because I knew we’d be going back in November.
They didn't have the DVC Christmas spirit jerseys at any of the hotel stores when we were there for the last week of October. The DLR ones were in stock as you said. For DVC-specific ones they had the pink one and the leftover Halloween ones that they were trying to clear out. DLH also has a hotel-specific one that I was tempted to get.
 


I wish Disney would release more styles. I knew the Spirit Jersey would not be flattering on me, held out for years, and then finally broke down and bought one on our European Dream sailing because merch was very limited. Alas, my instincts were correct. Could we get some more fitted fleece sweaters or baseball tees or really anything else? My husband is grateful for all the money I haven’t spent, but like Ariel, I dream of a different world full of possibilities.

Here I thought I was the only one that didn’t do spirit jerseys.
 
I used to not be a SJ person. But I learned to buy a size smaller and they actually turned out to be pretty comfortable once washed.

It also helps to have a 20% MK discount.

Even with that, most of them are too LOUD for me and I already have a full closet. And I laughed VERY hard when I saw that the OBB SJ’s were almost $100 pre discount. NOT A CHANCE.

I didn't like the style for myself so much I forgot that they are also wildly expensive. Im going to buy one for my daughter for Christmas with the current DVC shop disney sale, I can justify it with stacked coupons.

I love my spirit jerseys. I did not like the look of them at all. My mom asked me to pick up one for her a number of years ago and I was not sure what size so I bought 2 sizes and the smaller was better for her. I tried on the bigger and it was so comfortable. So now, I have quite a few. I already have at least 3 Christmas ones, so I really do not need one this year, but I kind of love that dark green one and if I found it with the DVC on the back, I would probably get it.

All the OBB merch were so horribly designed that someone would need to pay me $100 to wear the SJ.

I didn't really get into SJs until my wife bought one back in 2017 when we were there on a colder than expected day. Once I accepted that I'm as basic as she is they are quite comfortable to wear around the house during the fall and winter.
 
There is a 25% code for DVC members (DVC25) that stacks on top of a 25% off $100+ code (DISNEY25). Ends up being about 44% off and works for DVC-ND members too.
Guess I know what I'm doing to combat election day stress. :)

Re: OBB merch, we saw the spirit jersey outside the store next to the river rafting ride on November 1. I thought, hmm, my kids would wear these as night gowns, I wonder how big the discount is? No sale at all.
