Price Increases Hit Minnie Ears

Posted on by Mathew Corn Animal Kingdom, Disney Parks, Epcot, Hollywood Studios, Magic Kingdom

Minnie Ear Headbands have, over time, surpassed all other Disney Parks accessories as a quintessential element of Disney style. With new styles being released on a near-monthly basis, there are tons of different designs to choose from, and up until now, adding another pair to your collection was usually a no-brainer.

Well, as with many other food and merchandise items across property, it appears price increases have reached the popular parks accessory.

Once priced at a standard $27.99 across property, Minnie Ear Headbands now retail for a solid $29.99. That’s a $2 increase in price per ear, making each ear just over $30 with tax.

Price increases have already taken over shopDisney as well.
