Emtbsam Posted April 26, 2017 #1 Share Posted April 26, 2017 I know this is truly a trivial (excuse the pun) question, but for those of us who have stockpiled prize points in the hope that prizes on the Muse will be more interesting than those on the other ships, can anyone tell me whether the list of prizes has changed?

Oh 'eck! I though the CD was kidding when he said the points were exchangable for gifts on any ship! I know he jockingly spoke about prizes at the beginning (SS Brochures etc), so thought the whole thing was just a bit of fun. I didnt realise points really did make prizes! Oh well... I will remember for next time! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wripro Posted April 26, 2017 #3 Share Posted April 26, 2017 The way some people hoard points you;s think there was actually something worth redeeming them for. There is not. Or at least has not been so far imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tee shirts and hats are great for working in the garden, but we have so many of them that we were hoping that they might come out with something new on the Muse.

Rare spinnaker2 Posted April 26, 2017 #5 Share Posted April 26, 2017 They did have selfie sticks on the Spirit just recently. They ran out of them! Everything else was the same. Came away with a visor and shirt... Hope you get your question answered! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruisinPashmina Posted April 26, 2017 #7 Share Posted April 26, 2017 They did have a charger thingy on the Wind a few weeks ago. Went like hot cakes! The whole points thing really is a little bit silly...but it's fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duct tape Posted April 27, 2017 #8 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Don't know yet. Will let you know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess if you don't have multiple t shirts, hats or visors there's some value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Echo Posted April 30, 2017 #10 Share Posted April 30, 2017 At the end of the pre-inaugural cruise, there was an admission that the "prizes" remained unaltered. Whether the container carrying the new range of goodies, was delayed along with the correct number of cruets for La Terrazza, is an open question! One important change about which Jimmy and his team (expanded by the creation of an Assistant Cruise Director position), have worked very hard to produce, is a new design of token, which puts all the other ships' equivalents to great shame. Yes, the idea of "points" for the sort of items you would not even notice in a gift shop ashore, is an interesting insight into peoples' psyche, on a luxury cruise ship. However, anybody who has experienced the crowd at 5,45 pm on the last day of the cruise, when the International Hosts (esses) open up their "shop" at the tours desk, tells it all. Like Emtbsam, and many others, it is the hats and visors that tend to destock first, and now these are no longer available in the boutiques on board in navy, only an impractical off white.
