marcyjane Posted August 9, 2016 #1 Share Posted August 9, 2016 I haven't been on Carnival for a few years. They used to have a T-Shirt sale on the last sea day. Does anyone know if they still do this. I also loved it because they had shirt that showed all the ports of call you visited on the cruise. Thanks:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
originalgeek Posted August 9, 2016 #2 Share Posted August 9, 2016 they did on Conquest a week and some change ago. At least, I think that's what they were doing over there - we were headed a different direction for soemthing else but I saw a big group of people looking through shirts set up on tables outside the gift shop. I meant to go look when we came back by but forgot. Dang. I would have liked a shirt with all the ports on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzycruiser2 Posted August 9, 2016 #3 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Not sure, but we got some two years ago. They looked good, but the pretty blue shirts became a dull gray after only two washings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgoswartz Posted August 9, 2016 #4 Share Posted August 9, 2016 We were on the Splendor in May. Do not remember the sale. Was surprised at how few t-shirts they had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachbum53 Posted August 9, 2016 #5 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Yes, there is a t-shirt sale on the last day, but don't get too excited. Carnival changed vendors earlier this year, and the t-shirts are not the same as what you're used to seeing. Very limited color choice, and the quality is not as good. Hopefully the contract with the current vendor is a short one and Carnival goes back to the previous vendor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Razor_Poke Posted August 9, 2016 #8 Share Posted August 9, 2016 2 for $20. Wife couldn't find what she wanted and one of the employees went somewhere and found it for her. Agree, the shirts seem cheaper to me. I've got one from years ago that is still in good shape. These don't look like they'll last a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maldenmusic Posted August 9, 2016 #9 Share Posted August 9, 2016 They did on the Triumph last month but they didn't have anything we wanted. In the past you could buy T shirts specific to the ship you were on but we didn't see that this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gottagocruisin Posted August 9, 2016 #10 Share Posted August 9, 2016 They do on the Valor. A mix of children's, lady cut, and men shirts. They either showed a specific port on your itinerary, the Caribbean islands, or a cruise saying on them (such as "live love cruise" I got).

lizzyplague Posted August 9, 2016 #11 Share Posted August 9, 2016 On the Conquest back in May they didn't have any port specific ones... just the "I Heart Cruising" and some basic Caribbean/Carnival themed ones. It was quite chaotic since they chose to do it the night before debarkation at 8pm, literally feet from the main lounge with a show starting at 8:15.. on top of the band playing in the atrium a few floors below. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marcyjane Posted August 10, 2016 Author #13 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Thank you all. I just didn' want to by shirts in ports if the ship would have them. :):) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crusinpsychRN Posted August 10, 2016 #14 Share Posted August 10, 2016 The ones I've gotten have been good quality and last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosefloater Posted August 11, 2016 #15 Share Posted August 11, 2016 2 for $20. Wife couldn't find what she wanted and one of the employees went somewhere and found it for her. The 2 for $20 is all cruise long. On the Miracle, in the $10 part of the jewelry store, on the last day there was a sale. There were t-shirts on the table scattered among other articles of clothing. Really had to hunt for shirts that weren't too small or too large. Prices were about 1/2 price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretzellover Posted August 11, 2016 #16 Share Posted August 11, 2016 On the Valor, in July, they had the t-shirt sale, but it seemed more like a clearance sale. They only had shirts for ports we did not go to. They had a few generic Carnival shirts and Carribbean shirts. It was kind of disappointing.

Crusin5252 Posted August 13, 2016 #17 Share Posted August 13, 2016 (edited) Yes, there is a t-shirt sale on the last day, but don't get too excited. Carnival changed vendors earlier this year, and the t-shirts are not the same as what you're used to seeing. Very limited color choice, and the quality is not as good. Hopefully the contract with the current vendor is a short one and Carnival goes back to the previous vendor. The T shirts from the new vendor also run much smaller than the shirts from the old vendor. My husband and I always purchase the large size. The shirt from the new vendor was too tight in the shoulders and arms for him. The old vendor shirts were always a little large n me because I like them loose. The new size L worked for me, but it was a little snug. Edited August 13, 2016 by Crusin5252 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old vendor shirts were always a little large n me because I like them loose. The new size L worked for me, but it was a little snug. The shirts are so ridiculously small it's not even funny. I wear either a woman's medium or large (depending on how big the shirt runs). Last month on the Conquest I had to get a women's 2XL and the shirt is skin-tight on me (which I don't like). It fits like a small. I was telling a friend about it and literally had to show her the tag with "women's 2XL" on it so that she would believe me that I was telling her the truth about the size. I honestly don't know what the company that makes them is thinking. Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ray98 Posted August 13, 2016 #19 Share Posted August 13, 2016 I agree with some of the above. On our last cruise sizing was very inconsistent and it was a task to find anything buy S or M. Wasn't impressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richfret Posted August 13, 2016 #21 Share Posted August 13, 2016 I was disappointed in the T shirts. They are the kind of shirt you would find in any store where they were getting rid of the shirts that did not sell well. They also do not carry the Carnival Polo shirt any longer. They were in several colors with a collar and a pocket with the Carnival emblem on it. I always bought 2 or 3 while on a cruise. I still love you Carnival but you did disappoint me with your shirts. Oh well, back to the pretend Lido Deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
