Personal fans?

dementia · 04-07-2005

Okay I looked at Walgreens.com, Target.com, and walmart.com. Since we're going at the end of May, I wanted to pick up those personal fans you hang around your neck, or the spray ones. Either or. But now I can't seem to find them. I looke o n Google, and on Deb's site, and it doesn't say WHERE to get them... I want to get a bunch before I go, and I know they're like $2-3... but where do you get them from?

**DisneyTeacher** · 04-07-2005

I have found them at Wal Mart in the summer stuff.

**Dopey** · 04-07-2005

Oh but they have those great ones at WDW. You must have one ot those. They don't come cheap, I imagine, but they are good looking!!!!

karliebug · 04-07-2005

I have gotten them at kmart and at CVS drug stores in the past.

gcbdad · 04-07-2005

We bought a handful last year from Walmart. They were in the area by the paint and tools. Last year when we lost power during two of the Hurricanes here in Florida, they really came in handy.

**ddoll** · 04-07-2005

They should be showing up sonn with the other seaonal merchandise. Maybe it's just a tiny bit early right now.

Cavey · 04-07-2005

I bet you'll see them in the next month. Check the area at Walmart where pool supplies are slowly going in.

queensmama · 04-07-2005

Arent they the best they should be showing up any day now in the stores.

That's exactly where they were in my Wal Mart.

Try your local Eckerd/CVS or Wallgreens. I just put mine out yesterday in my store.

I just bid on some on ebay yesterday. I looked up spray fans. Hope that helps.

Unfortunately, they may be cute, but we'reon a budget here. So I'll go out tonight and look at Walmart and CVS. Thanks though :)

At which do you work? CVS or Walgreen's? Just so I don't have to hunt down both :)

And do you all suggest the spray bottle fan (do they have straps)? Or just the little ones you can hang around your neck?

**cinderbella** · 04-07-2005

I bought one quite a long time ago at Bed Bath and Beyond and it worked well--and still does...and this is the best part...it was called...Mr. Mister.....hahahahahahaha

dznygrl · 04-08-2005

Wal-Mart almost always gets them out around this time of year for $1.00 (without batteries) and they work great!

If you can't get them beforehand, we picked up ours at a Publix in Kissimmee/Orlando on the way to WDW. They were a little more expensive (like $4-$5) but also seemed to be a little better quality. The bigger ones with a huge spray bottle attached were pretty pricey, probably cuz of the tourists. (About $12 I think.)

Definitely consider getting a spray one...OMG those things work wonders in the Florida heat.
