beachbum53 Posted June 9, 2015 #26 Share Posted June 9, 2015 We just got off Dream yesterday and we got coupons for 1 free drink each for the last day of the cruise. We used them with no problem. We are gold. Golds get both the water and the coupon!:eek: :rolleyes: Hmmm. Either we got short-changed, or the cabin steward forgot to leave us the coupons. Maybe I should write a letter to Carnival and complain. Or better yet, I'll contact John Heald. Think I can get a free cruise out of this? :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starraz Posted June 10, 2015 #29 Share Posted June 10, 2015 I was on the Miracle last week and I just used the coupon at a regular bar. No lines.. And it was just as good as the dozens of others I had. On the other hand the drinks I had at the past guest party always seemed watered down.

near the beach Posted June 10, 2015 #30 Share Posted June 10, 2015 If the cruise is not long enough for a past guest party there will not be any coupons for gold passengers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheckersMidwest Posted June 10, 2015 #31 Share Posted June 10, 2015 We were gold this cruise on the Glory. There is a letter in your room with your gold membership pin attached to it. Across the bottom is your tear off certificate/coupon for the free drink. We cashed ours in in the amber lounge during a show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butterbean1000 Posted June 10, 2015 #32 Share Posted June 10, 2015 This is for at least 5 days cruises, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubbles4ever Posted July 19, 2015 #33 Share Posted July 19, 2015 quick question....can it be used at the coffee bar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tutontow Posted July 19, 2015 #34 Share Posted July 19, 2015 It is good to know you can order any drink and just pay the difference if it goes over $9.00. Thank you CC members for the information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavyJoneses Posted July 19, 2015 #35 Share Posted July 19, 2015 We got beer with ours at one of the bars on the Lido deck by the pool on the Carnival Dream. We had to sign a receipt where we could leave a tip and pay the tax. I think we were taxed (around 25 cents or so) because the ship was already in Louisiana. There was only one guest at the bar. Didn't know about the tax thing. Is than only if you are in the waters of a taxing jurisdiction? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T2C Posted July 19, 2015 #37 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Off the Pride yesterday and we used ours at the Alchemy Bar. Since the coupon is only good for $9.00, you pay a difference of $1.09, but it was VERY worth it for me to know that I was getting a good quality drink. :) Thanks, that's good to know because the wife loves the chocolate martini and thought she couldn't use the coupon for one because of the price.

IPlayWithString Posted July 19, 2015 #38 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Please-Only If you have recently cruised CCL. Were there long wait lines to get your after 5PM "Appreciation drink" on the last evening of the cruise? Did it seem watered down? thanks I don't drink a whole lot, so I'm not sure if the drink was watered down or not (I had a Hurricane Wave) but I do know I had to chase down a bar waiter (we were in the theatre) in order to use my coupon. He saw me with it and started walking the other way very, very quickly. DH and DS used theirs later in the evening for sodas and the bartender gave them the stinkeye for using their coupons.

hartsnvt Posted July 20, 2015 #42 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Can you give it away or do you need to show your Sail & Sign card with the coupon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retired_to_Cruise Posted July 20, 2015 #43 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Yep, the bottle of water replaced the old drink coupon and the new drink coupon replaced the past guest party for us lowly gold members. If you don't like them, don't drink the water or get the free drink. Simple as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vitamin_Sea Posted July 20, 2015 Author #44 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Can you give it away or do you need to show your Sail & Sign card with the coupon? Well.. it does have your name on the coupon. You may have to get something. Doesnt have to have alcohol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
