It is best practice to send your address update to Santa Claus at least 30 days prior to sailing on your Christmas Cruise. 

As a reminder the person icon is really the setting or rising Sun over waves. The other two are a cake with candles and a car battery.

If you are in port and perhaps state waters, sales tax is charged on purchases.

If the savings is substantial* then absolutely go for the GTY stateroom. Then as soon as it's assigned look to change to a better stateroom in the exact same category.

Note:

* Substantial means something different to every cruiser.

OP: why not get off the ship in Cozumel and Nassau? Both are easy exits and the port areas are safe and free. No need to spend a nickel. Watch the giant screen in Nassau,,sit in the grass and stare at the ships in port. listen to the drunks sing in Cozumel. Get whistled at for crossing the yellow line. Go above the water snorkeling. Sit and people watch. Free free free free.

They frequently pre-showtime do an mini-bio interview with questions like the following: What's your favorite Royal ship?, What's your favorite cruise itinerary?, Boxers or briefs?, etc...

If her issue with attending is "stage fright", then no need to attend. Other than that, it's a pretty mundane. Walk up, while a few people clap, take a picture, get the heck off the stage.

I'll give you two to one, if you can prove this isn't true.

Generally a few minutes. 

As stated: Want comedy?  Cruise Carnival. 

I don’t think Royal does bread well at all. But, yes, the biscuits are particularly bad. 
 

When they add Playmakers next year, then Playmakers.  The Aqua Theater big screen, if it's your team.
