Purchasing spirits for cabin

[VentureMan_2000]

I like doing the math...

A one liter bottle yields a little over 22 shots, 1.5 oz. each.  I understand that a shot on Carnival costs $7.16, and the average price for a 1 Liter bottle on Carnival is $85.   So, everything being equal, 22.5 shots would cost $161 at the bar.  Add an 18% TIP ($29) to that $161 would total $190.  Add the 18% TIP ($15) to the $85 bottle price and it totals $100.  

A 6-pack of mixer (tonic, Pepsi, etc.) adds another $10 or so (guessing here) to your bottle.  

All of a sudden that $85 bottle is looking pretty cheap !

So, you could end up paying as little as half the bar price if you are so inclined to do shots or mix your own and drink in your cabin.
