We don’t plan them, but they do happen, sometimes beyond our control. Some vacations aren’t as good as they are made out to be, maybe it’s a case of false advertising or maybe as a tourist you are …..
Everyone loves a souvenir gift upon returning from vacation. Actually most people expect them, whether they say so or not. Souvenirs make a nice little thank you gift to the neighbors who watched your home while you were gone, the babysitter who regularly watches your children, the pet sitter or anyone else you hold near and dear. Souvenirs are also nice for ‘just because’ gifts. Never forget to buy plenty memorabilia for yourself as well.
If you drive yourself or your family to your vacation destination, it’s nice to stop in each state you cross through and pick up a little something with that particular state’s namesake. Normally you can find an impressive selection of souvenirs near the borders of the states, at an Oasis, truck stops, or individual souvenir stores. Most of these stores have at least one clearance table where you can find some really great deals that everyone will love.
The most popular souvenirs are refrigerator magnets in the shape of the state or depicting the states persona. Coming in second would be shot glasses and ashtrays, whether you’re a drinker, a smoker or not, these make cute little knickknacks.
Key chains, stickers and miscellaneous art depicting the state symbol, bird or flower make nice gifts for kids or as back ups in case you accidentally forget someone.
Miniature spoons, bells, and tea sets are a great gift and look nice on a display rack, often sold with a wide selection of state spoons. And who can walk away without buying at least one t shirt or hat with the states name or logo on it?
Theme parks like Disney, Universal Orlando, Sea World, Great America, Indiana Beach and the like, normally have masses of retail stores with clothes, toys, hats and knickknacks that can only be purchased from them. Many also have outlets where you can buy personalized gifts, like a necklace with a persons name written on a single grain of rice (which is available at most theme parks,) or an air brushed T shirt, personalized in any way as you wish.
Most theme parks have a souvenir photo shop where you can dress in a variety of costumes and pose for a photo in an old time western background. These professionals photographers do an excellent job in making your picture look as realistic and old fashioned as possible. You can pose as a cowboy or a bandit, a saloon gal or a proper lady and be pictured in an old time MOST WANTED poster. There are a variety of costumes, backgrounds, and posters available offering a choice of photo packages to choose from. These make great souvenirs or as personal gifts.
