MrsPete Posted August 27, 2010 #101 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Last week on the Freedom it was a bucket of six for the regular price of six. No price breaks.They had that same deal on Liberty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsPete Posted August 27, 2010 #102 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Hell, I just like the buckets.:D:p When my husband bought a bucket of beer (it looked like the white plastic one on the far right of the picture), I mistakenly thought the bucket was OURS. I was planning on taking it to Labadee for the kids to use as a beach toy . . . but the cabin steward took it away! If you want to keep your bucket for use later in the cruise, don't leave it out in the room! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruzincurt Posted August 27, 2010 #109 Share Posted August 27, 2010 I think they really need the mini-keg that you can strap on your back. It appears a bit odd, to me anyway, for someone to show up for dinner toting their bucket o'beers.:rolleyes: There is just no room on the table for the bucket.

ray98 Posted August 27, 2010 #112 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Great idea...kinda bummed to hear the beer is all 12oz now instead of 16oz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shand32783 Posted August 27, 2010 #113 Share Posted August 27, 2010 So...including the refilled bucket, you can get 16 beers. So much for the anti-smuggling crowd's argument that Royal Caribbean doesn't let you buy booze on the ship to take back to your cabin because they want to prevent excessive drunkenness. I think the average person can get pretty smashed on 16 beers. I may have to re-think my whole smuggling plan...although I did manage to get a six-pack of Amstel Light onto my last cruise in my suitcase. 16 beers for 67.85, sounds like a bargain!

Lotus Girl Posted August 27, 2010 #114 Share Posted August 27, 2010 I asked RCCL (UK) regarding this matter and if the deal was available on Independence and the fantastic Lesley Green at RCCL got the answer to the question: The correct prices are: $38.95 for 8 bottles with the cooler and also the refill is 8 bottles at retail price minus 25% discount when the guest presents the cooler. That's the info straight from Independence for the UK folks out there! Sailing tomorrow! Can't wait!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVALUATOR Posted August 27, 2010 #115 Share Posted August 27, 2010 I guess you may see some idiot trying to sell one on ebay. Why would someone be an idiot for trying to sell one on E-Bay?:mad: Heck, I could sell some of them casino free spin key chains on E-Bay.:) Now, If someone bought one of these items on E-Bay, they might fit into your aforementioned club.:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puffinater Posted August 27, 2010 #117 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Has it been confirmed that the coolers can be used on future cruises for the refill price? Would be nice to have on a B2B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gled0501 Posted August 27, 2010 #120 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Hi, Was on Explorer last week and our awesome bartender Andrew in the crown and kettle told us about this deal. I was being a smartass asking him about the bucket-o-beer and he brought the bag out. Its a soft, cooler bag with a shoulder strap and built-in handles. he loaded it with 8 beers and ice. the initial cost was around $40 with the gratuity and the refills are around $30 with tip. its an awesome deal, and we carried it with pride as we seemed like the only ones with it. my brother was the one to buy it and we took turns refilling it.

snausman Posted August 27, 2010 #121 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Can the coolers be refilled at Cococay for the discounted price? Thats an excellent question. I am wondering about Labadee, anyone know?? Laura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquahound Posted August 28, 2010 #122 Share Posted August 28, 2010 Has it been confirmed that the coolers can be used on future cruises for the refill price? Would be nice to have on a B2B. That's what I was told, but we all know how that goes. It's a brand new program, so we'll have to wait for a CC member to buy it and try to use it on another cruise. We'll see.

schmoopie17 Posted August 28, 2010 #123 Share Posted August 28, 2010 16 beers for 67.85, sounds like a bargain! Up until seeing this thread, we were debating the best way to spend our OBC. This settles it...$300 well spent! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
