Remember the good ole days of Disneyland shopping?

With a heavy thank you to Yesterland here are my favorite lost shops:

Candle Shop

Flower Shop - I just think it reall brightened up main street and made it seem like an old-town street.

The Character Shop I still call that space by that name.


Indian Trading Post Mostly a "boys" shop, but I was a Hot Wheels girl.

And, one I'd love even more now - the One of a Kind Shop

The Candy Shop in the Castle. Ummmmm, Rock Candy.

And, not a store, but I LOVED those futuristic "speaker phones" at the exit of the Circle Vision Theater.

What was your shopping love that no longer exists at Disneyland?

I miss all those especially the speaker phones.

When my mom used to take me in the late 60's & 70's, Main Street was like another mall. So many different shops and specialized items. She'd spend hours on Main Street with me in a stroller!!

Now all those stores are just various styles of Disney Stores. The park still has stuff that's unique to it but not like before.
