Following I am on the Paradise Sept. 5th

Guilty of being judgemental...LOL but I understand if you've never cruised, you wouldn't know BUT someone shoud have clued her in before now... Hope it works out!
I have never cruised before but I have all my papers in order. I leave in 129 days. I agree she should have checked this out.
If she was born in the port city maybe she can run to the court house when they open and get one. Here I can get a BC the same day.

Mine for Sept. 2018 dropped $190 in price. So of course I asked for an adjustment.
This cruise has dropped almost by 1/2 since I booked it last Sept.

Can you share what the airfare deal was ? Somehow, I must have missed this one though I was a member of MyCoke Rewards for many, many years until it ended.
Cashed in my caps for Amazon gc and then bought Southwest Airlines card with them. I had to have everyone I know cash in caps as it was only 2 per email.

What is Swagbucks?? I read it is a reward program but have never heard of it. Please tell me more about it please.
You do surveys, watch videos and shop through their links. You get Swagbucks and can cash out for paypal, gift cards starting at $5. You you make your daily goals for a month you get bonus points. I have been using this for years. I have paid about $70 of my cruise with this. I cash out for either Visa cards or Amazon.
You can use the link before to join.

I use a plastic, accordian-style folder, with labeled categories. (Documents, passports, activities, driving directions, hotel reservation, etc.)
Me too. I have all my payment receipts in there too.
-
Anyone else here do reward programs such as swagbucks, mturk and the old My Coke rewards program. Although I will say Thank you to coke all those caps I saved did pretty much pay for my airfare for this coming Sept.

Okay how do you hear the movie. I feel with all those people I won't be able to hear the movie.
TIA

I plan on doing some Cruise Cash. I like everything paid pretty much when I go on vacation.

Hope you had a good birthday..Birthday twin. I turned 50 this year.

What a pain. Our insurance requires us to use mail order which means we get 90 days worth at a time and they are all in big bottles (even tiny pills.) That's going to take up a LOT of room in my carry-on bag.
Contact your mail order. They can provide you with a smaller bottle with a label for you. I am a Pharmacy Tech and we do this all the time for people.
You should always carry any meds in a bottle with a prescription label when outside of your home.

Sept. 5th 2018 is the day I need the room
-
Hi Looking for options near the Tampa port. I am willing to pay up to $200 a night for a room.
-
Good for you, OP! Always nice to get a lower fare! I use the price protection form and usually get a confirmation within 2 hours or so. We have a spa balcony on the Horizon, and that fare has come down over $320/pp.
With that form is it automatically applied if a cheaper rate comes out? Or do I keep checking
-
With a recent sale I called and got an adjustment on my cruise. Ended up saving us $530. So I owe a little over $600 on my part. Now I added it in my budget as another "bill" but this is a Fun bill to pay. :D
-
Drinks -- Yep! Added
(doing the soda package - can't do the alcohol one because my roommate does not want to)
Dinner in Tampa -- Added
Breakfast at hotel included
Will eat before I board the plane..it is a 2 hour flight I think. And snacks for plane will be packed.
No Spa and maybe one photo. (will take out of shopping)
Keep them coming. I am sure my $200 for Shopping is high. I do plan on bringing home cigars and rum from Cuba.

Leaving from Tampa Fl.
Booked La Quinta on East Fowler Ave
Cruise is Carnavial 09/05/2018
I am not cruising until Sept. 5th of 2018. Is it crazy that I just booked a room for the night before the cruise. I found a good deal for 100.00 a night not far from Port. It's the La Quinta Inn. It is refundable and being split between 2 people. Any advice or should I cancel and wait? I am just trying to get as much done as cheap as possible. TIA for all the advice.

I am restarting today. Although I have no idea what I weigh. I need to buy a new scale. So after work today I am going to head to Target and get one. I cruise in 333 days. I need to really lose about 100 pounds. But just going with the be smaller by the cruise. I ordered some clothes from Old Navy that may end up being way to big by the cruise. But I think the dresses will work even being baggy. We will see.

I will be on the Sept. 5th sailing to Cuba in 2018. All booked and now to pay it off and improve my Spanish.

I made the decision to book a 2018 Cruise to Cuba. I have always wanted to go and hope it's still open to the USA in 2018.
I figured out the money part and now to save an pay for the trip.
I will be going end of October to celebrate my 51st Birthday. I am going Solo since no one wants to leave the USA.
I am pretty excited...:cool:
