Return of the 3D glasses thread, keep em or leave em?

A few months back, I started a thread that asked the question:
Have you ever kept a pair of 3D glasses after doing one of the 3D/4D attractions, or have you returned them every time.
I was very serious in my request to keep it civil and not rag on someone who has kept a pair of two over the years and no flaming.
I myself have never taken a pair from any Disney attraction, Universal attraction, Busch attraction, Six Flags attraction, or Cedar Fair attraction.
Why keep them? They're not sunglasses and you can't fold the stems.
I did have a friend who went to Epcot right after it opened and he did take his pair from, I guess it was Captain Eo, and would wear them from time to time, but I'd rather have a pair of sunglasses. Also, last year we went to see Nightmare Before Christmas in 3D and each patron got to keep his (folding!) pair of glasses.
So, the question is: have any of you kept a pair?

Another reason for me to not keep them: I wouldn't have room for all the pairs from Philharmagic, Muppetvision, Terminator, and Spiderman!

Re: Return of the 3D glasses thread, keep em or leave em?

They have those big cans at the exit designated as the place you return your glasses after the show, so obviously they want them back.

And even if it weren't clear that they want them to be returned, who wants to schlep them around the parks all day anyway?

Re: Return of the 3D glasses thread, keep em or leave em?

I remember the first time we went to MGM - MissSMIG was three and she wanted to keep the glasses... I remember asking her to take all 4 sets of glasses and put them in the bucket and she did.

Re: Return of the 3D glasses thread, keep em or leave em?

I have never thought about keeping them.

However when we took my father in law last time he put his under his hat and took them. I was mad, they may not cost that much to Disney but if everyone took them that would just be another item they have to replace and that gets costly. We made him give them back to a cm! The cm that he went to give them to, said keep them, once they leave the general area of the 3D show they just put them in the garbage. I am not sure how true that was, but I still made him hand them over.

Re: Return of the 3D glasses thread, keep em or leave em?

I'm afraid I did. I had put them on top of my head to help a man who had dropped a bag full of treats at the Muppet 3D and completely forgot all about them until my dh started laughing at me. I truly intended to take them back, but never got back that way. I still have them somewhere. Now that I think of it. I could have left them in the resort room.

I could see that happen. When we went to toy story, there was a man who was wearing real glasses and put the 3D ones on his head. As the ride was about to start, the CM says "don't forget your glasses", he touched his face and then it took a second to understand what she meant.
