OK, so here's the story. During the "Expedition Pins" pin event this past May, there were pin games in which you go to 4 different pin station and randomly pick an object that contains a pin in it. Whatever pin that you selected was your gift. With my rotten luck, out of the 4 different games that I played, I got 3 IDENTICAL pins. All 3 were the Chip 'N Dale "Dole Whip" cast lanyard pin, shown below.
Now, there's nothing wrong with the pin, and I find it rather cute, but getting the same pin from 3 different pin games wasn't what I wanted (besides, I already had this pin, and even had a few to trade on the lanyard that I was wearing).
So now, in the spirit of turning lemons into lemonade, I decided, what they heck. If the Pin God has somehow designed it that I should randomly get this pin from 3 different pin games, then who am I to refuse? Therefore, I have made the decision that one of the types of pins that I will collect is the Chip 'N Dale "Dole Whip" pin. So far, not counting the one I have in my frame, I have 6 of them. I'm going to put them either on a lanyard, or on my hat. I'm going to start trading for them and see just how many I can get. We'll see how successful I will be.

That is funny that you recieved 3 of the same pins durning pin games! I just got into pin collecting and trading myself this month. I stumbled onto your blog while looking for groups out there that trade Disney pins. Great blog and if I ever come across a Chip 'N Dale Dole Whip I will let you know so you can add it to your growing collection :).
Have a great day!
