Where can i buy a giant birthday card?

What can you buy with a Disneyland Birthday fun card? Sounds pretty restrictive!?

• My family and I are going to Disneyland in California next month and will be there for my birthday. We already have 5 day hopper passes so the promotion that they have going (Free admission on your birthday) will be changed into one of two options. They are, a special fast pass, or a 72$ gift card called a "Birthday fun card." I was reading the terms about this card and it sounds pretty limited! I was wondering if anyone else out there got the card, and what kind of things you can buy (the Disney web site only tells me what I can't buy!!! It only says "selected merchandise, from selected stores) Is it worth it or, should I get the fast pass instead? Thanks everyone for your input!

• Answer:

  Fast pass? No way! The 3 passholders in my family have all used the Birthday fun card. Basically, it allows you to buy merchandise in the shops. Rather then being restrictive, it was an opportunity to get something special from Disneyland that we might not have gotten otherwise. My wife got some collectibles that she had been looking at for months. I added to my hat collection, and my daughter spent hers over 3 months, mostly getting jewelry. For us, it was a LOT more fun than a 1-day fastpass. We are reminded of our purchases every day, as we see them all the time.
