MariCruises Posted December 18, 2022 #1 Share Posted December 18, 2022 We'll be on the Bliss out of Miami on 12/24. I'm wondering what shopping is available on board. I'm planning for my husband to treat me to a great Christmas present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare 1025cruise Posted December 18, 2022 #4 Share Posted December 18, 2022 I personally wouldn't buy anything on a ship. Spend the money at your local jeweler. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I overpay all the time....if I see something I like. The trinket reminds me of the great time. I can "value shop" any day of the week at home. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's ridiculous and a continual disagreement between us. The best gift to him is to get him nothing. It's weird. I hate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm wondering what shopping is available on board. I'm planning for my husband to treat me to a great Christmas present. Ignore the grinches .. it looks like Bliss has the same selection of shops as Getaway/Breakaway/Escape and epic. there’ll be a shop with jewellery from Effy and other painfully expensive brands, and there’ll be more budget friendly items in one of the other shops. Also there’s always the places in port too where you might find something a bit more unique. I got a Buckley bracelet with a turtle charm on my last sailing on Epic, and I try to pick up local specific Alex and Ani bracelets if I come across them. But I tend not to spend major money on jewellery and don’t have a husband to buys it for me either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LDIdeals Posted December 19, 2022 #14 Share Posted December 19, 2022 We just got off the Bliss and loved our Panama Canal cruise. Onboard shopping is pretty much limited to Jewelry, some handbags and sunglasses. Otherwise the standard booze, T-shirts and some clothing items that are ehhh and not much. Enjoy! We loved the ship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My notes from that cruise say I found some Uno de 50 jewelry. I have a couple of their pieces. Silver necklaces and bracelets, some with blue stones.
