I don't know if you would call this a myth, a rumor or a lie, but the world of Disney store does NOT have all of the same merchandise that you find in the parks.
I have heard it many times; person passes up buying special item in the park because they don't want to have to carry it around all day or they saved all their shopping until the last day of their trip to know how much money they have left. They know exactly what they want, a t-shirt from the tower of terror, and somewhere they heard that the world of Disney store at downtown Disney had all the same merchandise you find in the parks. Person goes home crying their eyes out in an almost suicidal depression. Little Becky disowns her parents and moves out of the house at the age of 5. Okay not that bad. Maybe just mild disappointment, but that can stick around for years folks and it adds up.
Don't fall into the trap. If you see an item you know you like and have to have then buy it then. Don't expect that you will see the same product in another park or the world of Disney. While over the past few years there has been a great homogenization (if that is a word) of merchandise around the resort there are still a few unique items to be found and its hard to tell which ones they are. So if you don't want to carry it, use package pick-up; where they will send any item you buy to the front gate to picked up on your way out. If your not sure if you have enough money, take another mortgage on the house. I mean if Sally really wants that doll make it her choice; it's either this tinker bell doll or a car when you're 16? It's her choice.
