nycruise3 Posted May 15, 2019 #1 Share Posted May 15, 2019 First they shrunk the notepads. Then they got rid of the pens. Do they still leave the small Carnival notepads in each stateroom? And do they give little golf pencils in each cabin or do we have to steal them from mini golf ourselves? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louanne93 Posted May 15, 2019 #2 Share Posted May 15, 2019 They do! The notepad comes with a pencil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaisyGirl55 Posted May 15, 2019 #3 Share Posted May 15, 2019 (edited) I always liked the notepads and pens, and used them long after my cruise. However, I have to be honest and say I didn't even realize they were gone as I usually bring my own pens and a small notepad or sticky notes myself Edited May 15, 2019 by DaisyGirl55 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madroge Posted May 15, 2019 #6 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Just got off the Dream- no pens and our pencils weren't even that fancy :( I loved my Carnival pens - always replaced with the next cruise- so disappointing.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djptcp Posted May 15, 2019 #7 Share Posted May 15, 2019 We asked our room steward for more pads on our recent Miracle cruise and he brought us about 10 for us to bring home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GLCM GUY Posted May 15, 2019 #9 Share Posted May 15, 2019 We pick up a pen from one of the bars and take it to the cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mets07 Posted May 15, 2019 #10 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Just off Horizon. Did not see pens, pencils, or pads of paper. (Not a concern ... did not even know to look for them). ✏️🖊️📰 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mets123 Posted May 16, 2019 #13 Share Posted May 16, 2019 Why are people even concerned? Most people have at least two of three in their carry on or luggage. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They want to make sure they don't run out when those are gone. For one of our past cruises on Carnival, the lady that was checking us in didn't have a pen. I dug around in my carry on and gave her one that was from RCI. She laughed and said "I wonder where that came from?" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aplmac Posted May 16, 2019 #20 Share Posted May 16, 2019 Since Carnival pens are so popular and desirable lol you'd think they could sell them in the onboard shops for anything like $ 1-2 each, no? Would that be so difficult? Oh don't tell me ... they do that already....... no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did a 7-day + 12-day Journey's cruise last Feb. We received pens for both cruises plus I asked the cabin steward the first week for an extra pen. Found out at dinner (part of large group) that someone at our table of 10 only received the pencil so I took him one of ours the next night at dinner. I have about 10 of the pens from previous cruises so I'll take one with me next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AAAAmerican Posted May 19, 2019 #25 Share Posted May 19, 2019 A Pen and/or NO=Pen is __. The writting BOND is Gone, the Pen may be a amiss. OMG it is free P.R. do they not know the US Postal Service (USPS) is in the business of selling US Stamps, the most Profiable is Overnight Delivery. A Cruise Line Ship used to give Postal Cards to write, send, and selling Stamps at the Pursers Desk , now called Customer (dis) service. What better way of showing family, friends, and associates the ship by a picture of ten thosand words? But a small Golf Pencil is kinda CHEaP..erh..
