Johnny60 Posted September 26, 2018 #26 Share Posted September 26, 2018 We are on the Fascination in December. Does anyone know if they deliver the evening before or the next morning? Would like to get some Bacardi. Or maybe it would be better to purchase in one of the ports? I am Canadian so can't buy as cheaply as in the US so I would think a good deal for us? Thanks guys.

Chris64 Posted September 26, 2018 #27 Share Posted September 26, 2018 I also used to stock up on Crown. But Carnival changed their policy several years ago to deliver to your cabin the night before debarkation, and I stopped. I heard they started delivering again (sales dropped significantly?), but now from last year to this year, they raised their prices by about 40% so I quit buying completely. Just not worth it any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bhern05 Posted September 26, 2018 #28 Share Posted September 26, 2018 I know alot of people like to say the savings aren't worth it, and sometimes it's not. In Miami you can get the 1L of Johnnie Black for around $40, that same bottle was over $80 when we visited Alabama once, so the prcies on the ship were amazing if that's what you have to pay. That being said, our last trip was running 4/$100 Grey Goose Liters which is an AWESOME deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rynerson27 Posted September 26, 2018 #29 Share Posted September 26, 2018 For me it was Sailor Jerry Spiced Rum 2/$22 of 1L bottles. Locally its $24 for a single 1L. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenjer Posted September 26, 2018 #30 Share Posted September 26, 2018 The only stuff I bother with is something I can not get at home. Sheridan's. I love it. On Islands I will sometimes pick up a favored rum if it catches my eye and I can't buy it at home. We fly so weight is a issue and if we are not flying southwest I don't bring anything home.

jdoc2007 Posted September 26, 2018 #31 Share Posted September 26, 2018 Definitely Sheridans, every cruise. Cannot find it locally and its wonderful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobsfamily Posted September 26, 2018 #32 Share Posted September 26, 2018 Just got off the Pride on Sunday and they were delivering to the cabin the night before debarkation. This must be new (once again) since they didn't do it in April. Sure hope it's that way on the Breeze in Jan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schazzy Posted September 26, 2018 #33 Share Posted September 26, 2018 Just got off the Pride on Sunday and they were delivering to the cabin the night before debarkation. This must be new (once again) since they didn't do it in April. We didn't buy any this year so I don't know, but, I remember last year we were told by the guy at the fun shop that they wouldn't be delivering it anymore and we would have to pick it up. Fast forward to the last night, and lo and behold, our room steward knocks on our door and has our booze. So honestly, it's anyone's guess what the policy will be on your next cruise.

sfaaa Posted September 26, 2018 #34 Share Posted September 26, 2018 For me it was Sailor Jerry Spiced Rum 2/$22 of 1L bottles. Locally its $24 for a single 1L. Another vote for Sailor Jerry. Cheap and perfect to bring to house party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just bought the 4/$100 Grey Goose Liters last week on The Miracle. In port, they had them 2/$66. I thought it was a good deal on the ship. Delivered to our room on the last night of the cruise.

ibbarry Posted September 26, 2018 #36 Share Posted September 26, 2018 Does anyone know if they deliver the evening before or the next morning? It depends on the length of the cruise. From the Carnival web page - All alcohol purchased in The Fun Shops onboard will be stored for safekeeping until the end of the voyage. The retained items will be available for collection in a designated lounge on the morning of debarkation for cruise durations 5 days and less; for cruise durations 6 days and more, alcohol will be delivered to guest staterooms after 7:00pm, the evening prior to debarkation (some exceptions may apply).

Treyatl2006 Posted September 26, 2018 #37 Share Posted September 26, 2018 You can sell the pure white henny for a profit... People go crazy for it in the states. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treyatl2006 Posted September 26, 2018 #38 Share Posted September 26, 2018 Me personally I've purchased Sheridan, rum chatta, jack Daniel's, Bacardi and a few I cant remember. I dont really drink much unless I'm on Vacation. So I barely ever touch any of the alcohol we bring back. We sometimes give them away as a "souvenir". Also the ship will beat the price of vendors in port along as you take a picture as proof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's good to know. Ours is 7 days so should get it the evening before. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
