Confession # 4: I Am a Reformed Obssessed Pin Trader


Yes, I admit it. I am a pin trader. But. I am no longer obsessed with it.

It all began with a Disney pin that my brother gave me way back in 2001.

What fun it was to trade pins with Cast Members.
Then I discovered on-line trading.
Our trips to WDW became pin quests.
Forget the rides, there's a Cast Member with a Lanyard!


About a year and a half later, I realized in a moment of clarity that I was not having fun anymore.
I was becoming a pin shark.

A fun hobby had become an obsession.

We dismantled the collection, keeping only our very favorite pins and those with special meaning.

I still trade now and then. Just for fun.
