We were on the Miracle 10/5 - 10/13. 16oz Bud Light Draft was $4.50. Drink of the Day $6.75, Long Island Ice Tea $8.75, Bucket of beer (6) $26.45, Bucket of beer (4) $23.00, Can of soda $1.95, Baileys on the rocks $6.50. And 15% gratuity is automatically added to each bar bill.

 

They do buckets of 6 beers :confused:. I've only seen buckets of 4. Is this new or only on the Miracle? Me and DH usually drink Bud Light and its worth an extra $3.45 for 2 more beers.

Ditto

[Room Service!]

One beer, 16 oz. Coors Lite, on the Pride last weekend was $7.13 total.

[Mulege]

Now I know why people smuggle!

[Room Service!]

It is ridiculous!

[girlscruise2011]

The worst part is alcohol drinkers can buy bottles of alcohol through Bon Voyage at some what of a discount (over priced but discounted as to a savings to buying individual drinks) but if you buy cases of beer there is no savings other then the 15% gratuity (but then you pay taxes) and the beers are WARM :(

 

To me, I buy the drink coupons and I save the 15% too and get a nice cold beer :)

LOL. Got all the reciepts out and Sign & Sail statement to check the prices before I posted. Double checked with DH since he is the Bud Light drinker. I guess it does seem odd. Hummm.... Sorry no answer for it.

I just got off the legend, they only did buckets of 4 beers (12oz each) for $23.00. they had a special on caronas one day that was $19 a bucket I believe. Drinks of the Day on the legend were 7.50. Which is ridiculous. The best special we got on beer was not advertised well at all. You could get a pitcher of beer in the sports bar (60oz of that good red frog draft) for $18.50. That was by far the best special except for the martini tasting which was 4 martinis for $17.00! Also a great deal.

Have fun!!

As previously mentioned, the 6 vs 4 bottles bucket pricing doesn't seem right. Note that $23.00 plus 15% tip = $26.45. Perhaps the $26.45 was for 4 beers plus tip?

[ss75511]

OH & you can take that pitcher anywhere! You don't have to stay in the sports bar to drink it so we would often take it up to the Lido or somewhere else to people watch.

I'm sure you're right!

I've never seen buckets of 6 beers either.... It's usually about $26 for 4 beers.

Usually there is $2 off the buckets so it should be about $24.15 for 4 and they are usually the 16 oz Aluminum Bottles not 12 oz. Wow...there are definately a lot of different answers here on beer :D

[girlscruise2011]

Maybe everyone's drinking ... beer. ;)

 

That may be it...everyone drinking beer and having a few too many to even care about what they paid for it. Sounds good to me :D
