- In today's video we head over to 192 to check out a couple of the weirder gift shops around the Disney area. The first one we stop at has a giant Wizard on top of the building, and the second one has a really weird mural of some Florida sights on the outside of it. Both had some really interesting Florida and Walt Disney World merchandise. One of the stores even had a taxidermied Alligator. Join us tomorrow for another new video.

We always have fun filming new things for you guys and showing you things to do in Orlando, Florida! - Развлечения
We're pretty sure that one family in Orlando owns most of those stores. Most of the items you showed, including the pins, are officially licensed, believe it or not. They sell those type of Disney pins at Walgreens too.
Yea they are legit. The parks give them (sell them) to the souvenir stores when they are out of season and didn't sell in store.
Yep, couldn't imagine a shop selling knock-offs would last long right in Disney's backyard.
Whaaatttt I did not know that
Attractions Magazine - yup, i was gonna say the pins are not knock offs. 1 cause i purchased a few of those pictured at the parks. 2 the website on the package is a real website and leads you to the official “shop Disney” website.
Yea, Tim's complete lack of common sense here was hilarious
My family always goes to this gift shop because of how weird and goofy it is. We always holler "WIZAAAARD" in the car when we see it. We bought one of those baby palm trees on our first trip in 2003, it's huge and still alive in NJ all this time later.
wait it acctely grew? could you maybe send me a pic? haha
OMG I WENT THERE YESTERDAY 😳 IT HAD SO MANY CHEAP PINS AND VERY CHEAP GOOD QUALITY I RECOMMEND IT 😊
I’ve passed that gift shop every time I’ve gone to Orlando and I’ve never gone in before so it’s interesting to finally see what’s in it!!
Where in Orlando is it please?
@@yorkshirelassdiaries4841 along 192
Kevin Strachan unfortunately that means nothing to me as I'm not a driver and I'm from the Uk but I'm guessing an Uber would? Do you know which Disney resort or park that its closest to? Or if it's closer to the Mall of Millenia? Thank you for answering
@@yorkshirelassdiaries4841 just Google wizard gift shop 192, and it should come up.
It makes me feel depressed but something tells me id spend hours in it anyway again lol
I think the Disney merchandise in these stores is similar to the stuff you would get at Wal-Mart. It's legitimately licensed but not the same quality as the parks and Disney stores hence the lower price.
Agreed. If they were knock offs, they wouldn't say "Mickey Mouse" or "Minnie Mouse" but, instead "Michael and Minerva Mouse" or what have you.
Also, Disney is super litigious. They may have loosened up a bit over the last decade, but not that much. Trademark is A BIG DEAL still.
yes and all the other gift shops on this stip
Yes you’re 100% correct.
I was going through the checkout at Publix this afternoon, using one of my Disney reusable shopping bags. It’s sparked a conversation and the young man waiting on me mentioned the vloggers he watched, and his favorite one was the Tim tracker. Small world, know that you are appreciated!
I work in a nail salon and i was telling a woman (who happened to be from england) about tim without saying his name and she goes "ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT THE TIMTRACKER" as excitedly as she could. made my whole day tbh lol
This gift shop (and the area around it) was featured in the movie The Florida Project! Definitely worth a watch!
Dereck Majors yes what an amazing movie!!!!!
Yes I watched it on the plane to Orlando
That’s why I’m here!! Haahahah
Instantly thought of the Florida project!
I remember this gift shop from my childhood! Honestly these tacky shops are one of my favourite parts of visiting Orlando 😂
Maddie! It's me, John! Do you remember me?!
Tim is brave bc i believe now in 2019 the area is semi sketchy but just use the same caution you would in any city. Im from ga we usually drive and um me ,my mama,and my stepdad stay with the weapons ....I once joked we were having to bring thr atl out of us in that area bc folks are nuts ....
I can't believe you've never been to the giant wizard gift shop before! When I was a kid I used to think it was the coolest store in the world... until you get older and realise every gift shop in that strip sells the exact same thing and the magic is gone xD
It's not Disney knock off stuff. It's stuff officially licensed by Disney. Other stores all over the country sell similar items. You won't find these things in park gift shops. If they weren't legal Disney would already have them removed.
You know the thing I love about you guys? You guys still have a sense of wonder about things that I would consider mundane. Like the crab magnet with moving arms. I smiled so big because I’ve never seen someone get excited over those. But you’re right, they are fun.
Reminds me of Huell Howser who had a PBS show called California Gold. He just traveled California and marveled at the simple joys in life.
Tim and Jen,
Thank you so much for doing this video. My wife and I went to Disney this year and stayed off property and saw both of these stores and wondered about them but did not have time to see them. As always, you guys posted a great detailed video about the stores so that we go the sense we were there.
Thank you for what you do. Your videos are a part of my wives and my daily routine. You will never understand the impact you have. Thank you.
Ahh yess the cheap gift shops. Always have to stop at atlest one when visiting Florida. Its tradition! xD
I’m from New York but I’m in Orlando a few times a year every year and this brought me back to my childhood! My little sister and I loved this store growing up and it’s cool to see that someone actually filmed inside!
The mugs with the tiny spoons are the best. You use the tiny spoon to scoop things into your drink like honey or sugar, then you have something to mix your drink with. And the spoon being nonmetal makes it a much better experience than using a metal spoon
Pretty sure it's also an espresso mug. I know espresso sets come with small spoons like that
Good ol Rt192. Brings me back...
I’m so glad I’m not the only one with an affinity for seashell sculptures
Oh that brings back memory's of our visit to Florida in '98 and '00. Just across the road we stayed in the "Sheraton Inn" probably an different resort now a days. Greetings from the Netherlands
Tim, this was literally one of my most favorite videos! My family is here from GA (we are in VA) and we sat and reminisced forever because of this video about our childhood vacations- we would always find the tackiest, craziest looking gift shop and pull over to explore what treasures we could find. We love kitschy FL gift shops and love all the random crap in them! The “I hate my wife” shirts crack me up and I love that you can find a figurine of shells playing poker!
I love these shops! There’s one with a giant flamingo on the front and one with bald eagles painted all over it (or at least there used to be). They were fun to visit in the evenings after leaving the parks. We also used them in a pinch if someone in our family forgot to pack a sweatshirt or pants, etc. It’s cheaper than buying at the park when you’re vacationing on a budget. Thank you for the nostalgia trip Tim. This made my day! ❤️
I went to Florida last year and stayed at the Holiday Inn right by to that wizard shop and other souvenir shop! I'm guilty of buying useless knick knacks there but love it so much!
I love when you do these little side trips. You ask all the right questions, too. "Who licensed this?" You'd think the city wouldn't "officially license" products that allow you to impersonate a lifeguard. I don't see the upper brass of any org doing that.
I’m writing my Christmas list after watching this. 😂 To spice things up, I won’t say where to find the stuff.
1. A pack of 20 Florida themed keychains with at least one of them being a fingernail clipper.
2. An inspirational pooping sign
3 . Edible Gator poop
4.snow globe of an alligator 🐊 on the back of another alligator
5. A dinosaur made of shells
6. 6 muffins for the price of 3
7. A shirt that expresses hate about having a wife
8. A low quality picture dog cut out, that holds leashes and says Florida.
Seeing these shops brings back so many memories! I miss Orlando terribly!
Tim you made my day. We love this store. Been visiting them for years. There's one with a Mermaid on the front too, however we now call them all the Wizard shop. So tacky but fun. X
I always wondered about this place. Thanks Tim.
I love the spoon in a cup handle. It’s great for tea. The hole is convenient to stick the paper end of the tea bag string in.
My favorite thing about Tim is his positivity. He thinks everything is awesome. And I love it!
Every time me and my family go to Florida we always visit these shops to buy souvenirs for family. So cool to see them featured in a vlog
Your level of enthusiasm is the best Tim 😄
I want a TIm Tracker shirt that says "Lets go into the Wizard together! This is my favorite video and honestly, i'm not really sure why, maybe a special connection to the Florida souvenir shops but I really enjoy it!
Every time I’m in Orlando I have to fight the urge to go into these stores and buy a bunch of unreliable crap just because it looks hilarious. That lightbulb shot glass/bottle looks fun!
Those creatures playing cards made out of seashells was really cool!
Me and my fiance have been to Florida for the last 3 years and stayed on that strip and we love the gift shop. That's where we get all our gifts for people and find some random things 😀
I was cracking up the entire video. I'd love to go look at the gems these places have. Thanks for sharing Tim.
When you went to the gift shop opposite Perkins you gots me in the feels. Perkins is one of them places we always went too when I was a kid. My dad passed boxing day, and we were meant to come back this year but we cancelled the holiday... We couldn't do it. It hurt too much. So yeah, this video just really hit me. The second one you went too is definitely one of the better gift shops we've ever found for cheap Florida stamped stuff
“Banging deal on muffins” 😂😂 Too funny!
tim's pronunciation of spiderman is back! lol love it
Greetings from Canada We have been to those gift shops. I literally laughed out loud at your comments. You and Jenn are so sweet. Thank you for being you. Xoxoxo
This made me laugh way too much! I think particularly because Tim was so complimentary in such a serious way...
Super Dad indeed, now! Congrats!
Thank you both for what you do ...
Have you ever been to character corner up the 192? It’s a gift shop that has some old vintage Disney items and lots of genuine pins. Definitely worth a visit
The mugs with the tiny spoons are convenient for work when you keep a mug of your own in a shared kitchen space. You can grab it easily!
We just met you guys in Disney springs!! My boyfriend and I Love your videos and you both were so nice!! Thank you for taking the time to meet us! It made our day❤️
OMG me and my wife visited this shop in 2016. What a unique place!
Found your channel before we first came to Orlando a couple of years ago and have been hooked ever since!
Always wondered what was in that Wizard Shop! Drove past it many times!
Oh cool store! My favorite thing is the Buzz Lightyear glasses! They are awesome! I also like the postcard with Buzz and Woody on it! Thanks for sharing your day with us!
You guys are the best! You’re just nice people and we enjoy all your videos. It’s my birthday today and my daughter got me a Ding Dang shirt! Best gift ever!!!!!!
Shopping with Tim, one of my favorite things to watch!
This brings back memories from when I used to visit those exact gift shops as a kid/teen! We used to stay on the strip for our trip.
Way back in the 60s my grandfather had an ashtray shaped like an alligator with Florida on it. When he died all 8 of us grandkids fought over it because it was so tacky it was great.
I love wondering round these shops when I’m in Orlando, when I was the me and my sister used to look out for the wizard shop every time. Can’t wait to be back soon
these gift shops are so fun to browse in!
Gift shops of those type are so nostalgic to me. I love the cool stuff that is so corny, but I love it. The gift shops remind me of my childhood days, going to Panama City Beach with my family and hitting all of the gift shops, looking for that one thing that would represent the era of that time. I even remember the gift shops up in the Smoky Mountains in Cherokee, and how cool they were back then. Do some more of these vids in Florida gift shops when you can Tim. I love this stuff. Thanks.
I love these cheesy gift shops. They are so much fun to look around in.
I didn't think it would be possible for me to have just one favourite TimTracker video. But I was wrong. And this is it.
I love seeing that wizard every time I visit Orlando
We loooove these stores ! As a family we all go in and try and find the most cheesy gift. My best one was a toilet ashtray that said ‘ rest your ash here 🤣🤣🤣’
notification squad!!
love your videos Tim! 💜💜
Wow those stores were gigantic Tim so much interesting stuff.
This reminds me a lot of what my family and I fondly refer to as “junk stores” in Myrtle Beach. The dead animals they sell depress me but always fun to go into those shops.
Tim's commentary, and Jen's editing is what makes your vlog my favorite. The banging deal on muffins got me. Thank you for making me laugh everyday.
The Perkins sound bite made my day.
It' funny how the merch in those 192 gift shop never changes!! If you were in one 20 ears ago, all the shirts and kitschy stuff would be the same!! There's also a gift shop with a Big Mermaid on the facade. When our Disney-Moon Souvenir spotted that when she was 4, all we heard thru dinner was "I want to go to "Mermaid World!" So we went there after dinner and it was just a gift store like Wizard, but that worked for her!!
This place looks huge. I’d be in my element!! I love souvenirs 😃😃 totally gonna check that place out next time I’m in Florida. Thanks for the tips Tim 👍
Been past there a million times! We used to stay at a lot of the hotels on that road when we still lived in Ft Myers. I used to get great discounts through the place I used to work, Now we live 30 minutes away and go to Disney almost every weekend! Have to check out the gift shop next trip!
Omg those stores were such a big part of every family vacation ever! 😂
Love It! And i always wondered what replaced the dogs playing poker in velvet painting form. Now i know.......
Oh dang them muffins though!
Oh yes, I love these shops and when I visit I hope this place is still here. Thanks for showing around, even though I have sent this message before watching!
Tim you make me smile when you do these videos - the commentary is hilarious !!!
OMG!!! THANK YOU!! I stayed at the comfort suites close to that shop, and I bought my first Disney souvenirs there on my first Disney vaca!!! it brings back great memories!!!!
The shells playing cards was the best!
Looks like fun little gift shops.
I love that gift shop every time we went to orlando it was the first gift shop went to, Hasn't changed all these years later.
That was one of the most entertaining videos you've done! I love those type of gift shops.
Great stuff - We came to Florida in August this year, and stayed at Celebration Suites, not far from these outlets and right next to Old Town. We loved the area, and will be back next year. Keep the vids coming Tim and Jen. They were incredibly useful when we were planning our trip (over from England). Great work guys!
Oh man, THIS shop. Oh boy
These videos always crack me up cuz ur saying all the things I’m saying in my head, but out loud! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
i used to stay there at different hotels at 192, liked the giftshops there , not the time-share sellers. wizard giftshop was there 10 years ago already. loved the store
Low key proud that you know what a trivet is! Lolol
Thank you for this. Lot of fun.
this was a really fun video, thanks guys
OMG TIM! There are only 1 of those gift shops on every corner. I figured you would have been in those gift shops a million times. GOOD STUFF CHEAP. we go there all the time.
This may have been my favorite Tim Tracker video ever. Too funny!
These shops are where all us tourists get our souvenirs from. Loads of them on international drive 😀 Love the fridge magnets. Tim is like a kid in toy shop 🤓
This is the video I was waiting for!!
I pass this gift shop every time in in Florida and always wondered what was in it. Now I know!! I love your videos Tim!
I went to the 2nd gift shop while I was at Disney a few years ago, can’t wait to go this Christmas!
This is classic Tim Tracker & we laughed our faces off - thank you Tim!
Tim I just want to say how much I appreciate your sense of humor, I love it 😂❤❤❤
This is the gift shop used in the movie "The Florida Project". Thanks for the upload
I love it.... things we buy that we don't need. I am always a sucker.
We would go into the gift stores when we stayed off property. Its been about 5 yrs since we've stayed off property. I always liked looking around them.
Tim Tracker= The only person on the planet to make a weird gift shop absolutely fascinating!!! 😄
The Perkins bit really got me good
I live about 10 minutes from both of these and still have never been to either of them. At last I have finally seen the inside of them!!
So glad you did this video, I have always wanted to go into both these gift shops but I never did, they certainly have some unique items, worth a look though!!
I love Perkins. Thanks for another great video.
