Here's a topic I've never seen... on board shopping?

The best deal I ever got on a Carnival ship, was on my first Carnival cruise on the Sensation. A Seiko watch for 65.00. That was back in 2000, and it is still going strong, I just replace the battery every couple of years. Also I have found if you wait till the last sea day, you will get great deals on T Shirts. They also have a 10 dollar sale that is pretty good too.:)

One thing we discovered they do NOT sell, at least on the Victory, is aloe vera. :rolleyes: Plenty of sunscreen, though.

 

Wow, they could really make a killing selling aloe vera! They need to look into that. I'm pretty sure I saw RCL's onboard store selling it on my RCL cruise.

 

I did find an awesome spray in the main store of Grand Turk's Cruise Center that is called "Soothe-A-Caine" (made by Banana Boat) and is a spray-on aloe vera and lidocaine combination! Not only is the spray perfect for solo travelers, but who wants to RUB something onto painful sunburned skin?! I loved the spray! I wish it wasn't dyed blue, but I'll take that for the bit of relief and coolness the spray gave. :D That bottle is definitely coming on all my trips with me; it is waiting in my suitcase! (Ironically, my 70 SPF sunblock is waiting in the suitcase with it! Yeah, need to spray that on more often next time around....)

Looking from the formalities, both sides shows us more shopping opportunities...

WOW :eek:, more than I ever imagined. Being this is my first cruise, I'm sure there is a lot I'll be awe struck over, and I look forward to every minute of it.

 

Thanks Lambie for the photos... a picture's worth a 1000 words.

I LOVE the $10 store onboard. :) I can't wait to take my daughter there again for her to pick out a new fancy purse.

 

 

Do the Fantasy class ships have this shop? I can't remember - last sailing was a few years ago.

 

We are booked on the Imagination in Feb. Do you know if they have the $10 store there?

how are the prices for the gold by the inch, would it be better to buy in port?

They have a lot that are 1 dollar an inch .They also do silver that way.

One day they had watch gift sets for 10. They included a watch and some other items in the box. (wallet, money holder, pen, key chain, necklace, earrings, etc thinks like that.)

[COLOR=darkred]Here is a link for the "$10 Store" that is being mentioned on this thread. It's the same company that runs this exact type of shopping venue in numerous malls.[/COLOR]
