Coupon / Discount Book

[tatay]

My TA said that she will send me a coupon book once we make final payment.:) My question is: Do they get these books from Carnival and what kind of discounts should I expect? Spa discounts, Free drinks ;)?

Nothing fantastic... buy one get one free smoothies, buy a bottle of wine get free chocolate covered strawberries, that kind of stuff...

Someone posted a link to what is in the coupon book and as stated it wasnt anything Id want. You have to spend quit a bit to me to get a little extra. Not worth much, if anything. I wouldnt use a single coupon.

. . . Not worth much, if anything. I wouldnt use a single coupon.

 

Very rarely do I disagree with Firefly, but I do on this one.

I used several for myself, and found that offering some to other passengers on the ship turned into a neat experience (as well as a great conversation starter).

And who knows. . . . the free play chip, or the complimentary tournament entry could possibly turn into a financial reward.

I saw one passenger (whom I'd recognized from the neighboring dining table) making a purchase, and offered them one of the coupons that would benefit them. They seemed rather stunned at the gesture. Two nights later, a bottle of wine appears at my table compliments of them. Pretty cool!

Thanks Popsec. Several of these look good: smoothie, martini, play chip, coffee, tournament, and spa (yeah).

 

Again, thanks for taking the time to post these.
