What did you buy at WWOHP?

[CRbiDis]

Does anyone know if there is a way to get a Hogwart's invitation as a way to tell my kids we are going to the WWOHP? I would think the owlery would have something like that set up.

There are shadow boxes approximately the same size and shape as the wand boxes. That's what I plan to do with mine when I get one in December.

That's a cool idea. I think you'll have to make one up yourself as there aren't any at the time. You can find some good images on google of letterhead. You can also purchase the wax seals online at www.universalorlando.com in buy merchandise.

Here is a cool website about Hogwarts invitations: http://www.curiousgood.com/?page_id=333

Wax Seal sounds like the way to go. Thanks for the tip

If you go to the Universal Orlando website and select, Messages, you will get a screen where you can e-owl post! (Sorry for all the spaces above. I am too new to post clickable links!)

Forgot about that! It will send an e-postcard to any email that you want. It is pretty cool.

Go to www.universalorlando.com/harrypotter and then click on messages like the PP said.

It isn't a Hogwarts invitation but it is still pretty neat.

Pygmy puffs -- which book or movie are they from? I think DD and I have watched the first 5 movies recently and I dont' recall seeing them. Just trying to get a frame of reference for them -- trying to figure out if DD will want one.

It's in the Half Blood Prince book. Fred and George sell them in their shop, Weasleys' Wizzard Wheezes. Ginny gets one and names it Arnold.

Thanks! It figures the pygmy puffs are from the one movie she hasn't seen. So, maybe we'll get away with not needing to buy one this year!

Good idea. Are they available at places like Michaels craft stores or did you see them at the park?

The ones I am referring to I saw at a craft store.

Regular Butterbeer with souvenir cup
Refill, but with frozen butterbeer
Hog's Head brew with souvenir Hog Head stein
1 Chocolate frog- Rowena Ravenclaw card
2 Cauldron Cakes- We bought 1 and the TM said they just started buy 1 get the 2nd free the day before. This was on Thurs, Oct. 21st. Don't know how long this is lasting.

We were able to get the preferred AP discount on all.

added in a Azkaban Prison magnet and a Sirius Black wand, although I have no idea what I am going to do with the wand. It's still boxed. Any wand display suggestions?

I wanted a Gryffindor scarf with a crest, but the line to purchase at Filch's was too long, and the stores at the park entrance and airport carried only the ones without the crest. Next time maybe.

I want to find something like this:

I thought the WB store used to sell display racks, but I guess not. Maybe if I go to Michaels they have something similar. Or maybe like a trophy store or something.
