BobBeaSea Posted March 11, 2007 #26 Share Posted March 11, 2007 $20.00 We don't drink, and I only splurged on a diet coke once in awhile......DH never splurged, he stuck with iced tea and lemonade. :eek: I am right there with you...OK, maybe not :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiltingandcruising Posted March 11, 2007 #27 Share Posted March 11, 2007 When my DD and I cruise a typical bar bill is always over $500 - when you start with a drink of the day or two by the pool - two or so with dinner - whenl watching the show and then late night of the bar it is easy to have 6 or seven drinks in one day x2 x7 is 84 drinks at least in one week - I trend to work hard -60-70 hours a week and I play hard. So what we do - I save all my change and once a year when we cruise I cash it in always around 600-700 dollars - enough or close to pay the bar bill -- No worries Debbie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vowsatsea Posted March 12, 2007 #31 Share Posted March 12, 2007 $0 I'm the only 21 year-old that hates to drink. Since the next one is mine and my boyfriend's first cruise together, we might have a drink to celebrate. Or I'll just take a sip of his. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natebenma Posted March 12, 2007 #32 Share Posted March 12, 2007 Last year my DDA (DEAR DEAR AUNT) treated our family of 42 to a family reunion cruise. Since she has everything she needs, and enjoys a nip or two now and then, I collected $600 from the family to pay for her drinks on the cruise. When I went to the purser to ask what her bar bill total was, he told me $1,495! When I checked in with my aunt, she said her bar bill was $14.95! Her roomate had been charging all of the drinks! Phew! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steamboatin Posted March 12, 2007 #33 Share Posted March 12, 2007 ZERO after 15 cruises. Free juices and ice tea for us. WE drink our wine at home. Wife prefers gold jewerly and now that is an entirely different question.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10X Posted March 12, 2007 #34 Share Posted March 12, 2007 We're almost like Steamboatin. We just did back-to-backs on the Crown and for 14 days, not counting Coke cards, our bar will was less than $10. However, in St. Maarten the jewelry bill was about $3200.

molaurie Posted March 12, 2007 #36 Share Posted March 12, 2007 This makes me glad to be clean and sober! I'm now perfectly happy with iced tea, coffee and juice...and having money to put toward my NEXT cruise! Plus, now I come home with actual MEMORIES of my trips...unlike the old drinking days(I went where when and did what?!!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy ks Posted March 13, 2007 #38 Share Posted March 13, 2007 We love a bottle of wine every night with dinner. Other than a couple of mixed drinks throughout the week, we don't drink much else. Our last 7 night cruise, the bar bill was around $350 for the week, $280 of it was for wine. Our whole onboard account was only around $600, so almost half of it was wine. We very much enjoyed our dinners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
