6. Pick-a-Pearl
Whether you are buying one for yourself or for somebody else, pearls make perfect mementos. And at Disney World you even have the unique opportunity to pick your own pearl straight from an oyster tank. This pursuit is most popular at Mitsukoshi in the Japan Pavilion at Epcot’s World Showcase, but can be found at other places too, like the Yacht & Beach Club’s Stormalong Bay poolside area, Typhoon Lagoon, and even at Disney Springs. Just choose an oyster and then a cast member will get down to business opening the oyster right before your very eyes to recover your new precious pearl. You may choose to have your pearl set via several available options, or to take your new treasure home in a silk bag as a keepsake. Whatever you do, this less conventional souvenir makes for a unique and affordable purchase.
