I saw that the Disney costumes at Disney Direct were discounted recently and I was wondering if the Disney store usually reflects those sale prices?

My local Disney store is about an hour away and I was thinking of going there for my Halloween costume for our trip in 2 weeks but then I saw the sale online and am all confused. I would rather go to store and see the costumes to decide as well as pick up some Disney dollars for the kids....but if online offered $30 difference that the regular store did not;it would be hard to justify not buying online (in the hopes delivery would make it here on time).

Livvyb, My neighbor just ordered a costume for her DS thru Disney Direct and went to the Disney store at the mall to exchange it for a larger size and she was told that she would have to pay the difference of $15.00 or so, because they were not on sale at the store and that they are not affiliated with Disney Direct! She was also told (which makes no sense to me) that the Disney Store and Disney Direct do not sell the same items. Hope this helps.

I have ordered from Disney Direct many time and I received my order within 7 to 10 days, so hopefully you can get it before your trip.

The Disney Store is no longer owned by Disney. The Children's Place bought the Disney Stores in November 2004. The Disney Store is still honoring returns at this time from Disney Direct. I don't believe the costumes have gone on sale yet at the Disney Store.
My husband has worked part-time at the Disney Store for 7 years. He was very disappointed when Disney sold that portion off.

As we most of us. However, the Disney Store in the later years was not the same store it started out being.
