gkrnjlr Posted November 16, 2014 #1 Share Posted November 16, 2014 I'm curious what others have been getting as their gift onboard. I've gotten several nice cups! Just wondering what the current gift(s) are. Thanks! Jennifer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wondering what the current gift(s) are. Thanks! Jennifer The Conquest 10/12 & 10/19 had the toiletry bag. I gave one away to a lady at my MDR table who wasn't platinum yet. I saw a very similar bag at LL Bean or Lands End for $20. Edited November 16, 2014 by evandbob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wondering what the current gift(s) are. Thanks! Jennifer I got the VIFP Tervis tumbler on Freedom in September. It was a nice addition to my blue and my red Carnival Tervis tumblers and my Red Frog and Blue Iguana Tervis tumblers. The VIFP one completed my set. :-) I've been on 2 Carnival cruises so far this year, and did not get the toiletry bag on either of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

092306 Posted November 16, 2014 #8 Share Posted November 16, 2014 We got the toiletry bags on the Splendor last month. We switched one out for the coffee mug as we didn't have a need for two bags. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Deane Posted November 17, 2014 #9 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Off the Valor last Sunday, got the toiletry bags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gkrnjlr Posted November 17, 2014 Author #10 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Thanks everyone! We have the Tervis and have a couple of the coffee cups. If I had my choice again, I'd prefer another Tervis over the toiletry bag! It's a gift though....so I really can't complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pom Lover Posted November 17, 2014 #12 Share Posted November 17, 2014 We sail on the Magic in two weeks and we are hoping for either the toiletry bag or the Tervis tumbler. We received the ceramic mugs in July and are not a fan of them. No dishwasher or microwave for the mugs. We sail with our 7 yr old granddaughter who is Platinum and we really wish they had an appropriate gift for her. we know it's a gift but none of them are really useful or enjoyable to her.

ccruisequeen Posted November 17, 2014 #14 Share Posted November 17, 2014 (edited) Sept I traded my coffe cup for a sling bag.

That's why I hope we don't get them on Conquest January 2015. Especially since we're doing B2B, we'd get 4 of them. This year I might check the 2nd week if we can exchange a couple of the items for something else. Love our CCL Tervis Tumblers - all 4 of them. Plus I have 6 more that I bought way before we turned Platinum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCTribeFan Posted November 17, 2014 #18 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Breeze in September: coffee mug Splendor in November: toiletry bag Wait! You got a toiletry bag? I got the little insulated tote bag! I figured I'd get the toiletry bag because I JUST bought a new one, but was surprised I got the tote bag. Don't know that I'll ever use it, but, hey! I might! The sling bag might be useful. What I don't want/need are more Tervis tumblers (I'm single, have one at home, one at work, and have given others away). If the mugs aren't dishwasher safe, I don't need them, either! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes we got the toiletry bag. That's weird that we didn't get the same gift when we were on the same ship. Did you get the insulated lunch tote? In fact, we got 2 toiletry bags because my husband and I are both platinum. And I have absolutely no use for either of them. :/ We have only gotten two Tervis tumblers. That's one that I would be happy to get a few more of! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimmimom Posted November 17, 2014 #20 Share Posted November 17, 2014 was toiletry bag. Hope Fascination has new gift when we sail in January Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccruisequeen Posted November 17, 2014 #21 Share Posted November 17, 2014 (edited) I was offered the coffee cup back in July with my parents on the imagination . I explained to them about the complaints about it and we decided to exchange it. I took it to guest services and I got the original Tervis cup in blue which was good because I already had the red one. Now we each have our own Tervis (mine is Platinum).

FlyingCruiserNJ Posted November 17, 2014 #22 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I got a toiletry bag on my last cruise, at the end of September into October. Not a bad thing, at least they are changing it up lately. I can surely use that when I am traveling and it seems that the consensus on this thread is that most ships are carrying the toiletry bags as platinum gifts now. I wonder what will be next. Any guesses? I already have the tumblers, the baseball caps, the beach bags and I am sure I am missing something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCTribeFan Posted November 17, 2014 #23 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Pretty odd that people on the same sailing got different gifts. I wondered last year on Conquest if they were just getting rid of a bunch of random left-overs before starting their winter sailings from Miami. Seems like that may have been the case on Splendor. When we met the cabin steward (sometime on Sunday), he asked if we were both Platinum and I told him, no, just me. "Oh, so only one gift!" was his response. "Yes, can you tell me what it will be?" I was thinking if it was going to be another tumbler, I'd be heading to the service desk to see if I could exchange it. "No, it will be a surprise." That's pretty much how the conversation went. I got the feeling he didn't have any idea what he'd be passing out. I wonder if we'd both been Platinum if we'd have each received the same thing. For all I know, I'm the only one on that sailing who got the cooler/tote bag. After all, I'm so Special, you know! :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreytRacer Posted November 18, 2014 #24 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Gladly swap you two tumblers ( have six four of which never opened) for a toiletry bag.. was hoping to receive the toiletry bag on Liberty Nov but that didnt happen zircon@nl.rogers.com drop me a line Cool!
