With each of the EPCOT festivals comes exclusive, limited-time souvenirs that just seem to get cuter and cuter with each passing year. (Oh, and more popular.)
EPCOT’s Flower and Garden Festival began on February 28th, and it brought LOTS of cute souvenirs. However, there was one in particular that seemed to be the star of the show! In January, Disney Lug bags started popping up in the parks. The Skeeter Lug bags are especially popular — they’re compact crossbody bags that look like Disney characters. An Orange Bird one was released for the Flower and Garden Festival, and believe us when we say that they are POPULAR.
When EPCOT opened on February 28th, there was already a 45-minute wait (!!!) for the Creations Shop, where the Flower and Garden Festival Merchandise was being sold. When we got inside, the Cast Members had already restocked the Orange Bird Lug bag once. 😳
Since then, the bag has been restocked a few times in person. Plus, it arrived online to the Disney Store a few days ago! Except… it sold out about as quickly as it arrived. Disney restocked it online, but then it sold out again in MINUTES. Yep.
It doesn’t show up as being sold out online, but when we go through the entire checkout process, it stops us just before we’re about to pay for the bag. Drats!
If you’re desperate for this bag, though, you can snag it on eBay. Resellers have it available for prices ranging from $80 to around $125.
We’ll be sure to keep you updated if we notice that this bag has been restocked again. Make sure to follow along here for more Disney news so that you’re always in the loop.

I was at Disney from 3/9-3/16, and I have to admit I feel pretty salty about the Orange Bird Lug being sold out in the parks. It’s not like I was there at the end of the festival. For that matter though, why have a premiere item for a festival that has such low quantities available that it can sell out so fast? Plus, if I thought it sold out just from park-goers in general, it would be one thing, but knowing it’s most likely because locals are re-selling just makes me sad.
