Talulah Posted April 14, 2009 #1 Share Posted April 14, 2009 I keep reading about the DOD cards but have a couple of questions. I know you get 1 hurricane glass full and then 4 smaller cups... so 5 total. Do these cards go for the entire cruise, or do you have to use the entire card in one day? Is it really $23 plus tips? That doesn't seem like a bad deal if you don't have to use it all in one day. Also, can anyone explain the different DOD's and what they taste like? I heard the "kiss on the lips" or something one is peachy... mmmm sounds good. Any explinations on the other ones? ~Jamie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krissta Posted April 14, 2009 #3 Share Posted April 14, 2009 I believe I read somewhere that one of the DODs is a Miami Vice, my all-time favorite! It's basically a strawberry daiquiri swirled with a pina colada. Sooo good!! Ooo! I found this when I Googled it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rachelmegs Posted April 14, 2009 #5 Share Posted April 14, 2009 You don't have to use the all of the drinks on the card in one day. My mom and I cruised on the Legend in February for 7 days and purchased 3 cards, we each had 1 drink a day (with 1 leftover). You do get 1 souvenir hurricane glass per drink card, but it is the same size as the non-souvenir glass, so you are getting the same amount of alcohol, just not the glass to take home. We found the DOD cards to be a great deal- definitely worth it! And a savings over the per drink cost! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keksie Posted April 14, 2009 #6 Share Posted April 14, 2009 When/where did you get the DOD cards? Are there particular bars where you use them or can you use them anywhere? Are the tips included on the card or are they extra? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wennfred Posted April 14, 2009 #7 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Never heard of a DOD card, are you guys talking about the unlimited booze card? Fred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mara93 Posted April 14, 2009 #9 Share Posted April 14, 2009 I'ts a DOD card. Good for 5 drinks, you can bring back your Souvenir glass & have them refill that one. Good for 5 drinks only, whenever. Want more than 5? Then buy another card. Comes out to $26.45 w/tax/gratuity Doesn't have to be the DOD for that specific day, you can pick any DOD. Also, you can buy the card at any bar onboard.

Anjanu Posted April 14, 2009 #10 Share Posted April 14, 2009 On the DOD card, you pay for 5 DOD with the first one being served in the carnival glass. It's a punch card numbered 1 - 5 and punch your card at the appropriate number. When you have received 5 DODs, your card is no longer any good. The DOD cards are $26 total which includes gratuities. You can get any DOD, not necessarily the one being served that day. You can only use them to purchase DODs. You can buy on DOD a day or you can use up the card immediately after buying it on 5 DODs at once if you want! I bought them on the Fascination and I thought they were great. I think you end up saving 20%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wennfred Posted April 14, 2009 #11 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Now we know :D Cool thanks for posting. If you buy the DOD each day, they are normally between $2.95 to $3.95 on sale. So 5 drinks at $3.95 would be $19.75 Don't have a caper to verify that but will be onboard Splendor in 12 days. Fred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred If this is the case, then the card wouldn't be worth it if all you drink are the Drink of the Days, no? I dont even remember the DODs being $3.95....i thought they were like $$.95 on sale....

cuyahoga11 Posted April 15, 2009 #18 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Well then apparently no Miami Vice. If I understand it correctly, the card is not good for any frozen drinks, just the DOD's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talulah Posted April 16, 2009 Author #19 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Ok so I had someone send me some capers to look at and I see where it says "Today's Drink Special" and I'm assuming this would be the drink of the day? If so... I saw the Funship Special, Yellowbird, Caribbean Breeze, Riviera Delight, Mexican Mama, Goombay Smash, and the Ultimate Suntan. But I've seen others mentioned. So is it just if it's been a DOD on your cruise? Or one they have had before on any cruise? I wonder if you asked a bartender nicely he'd make you anything fruity and blended as a DOD. Just curious about anyone who has used these cards and what did you order. So Kiss on the Lips isn't a DOD? I thought that the Miami Vice was one too... Hmmmm.

Talulah Posted April 16, 2009 Author #20 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Oh and also the caper said DOD was $4.50 regular glass and $6.95 for the hurricane glass. So that would be $6.95 plus 4 at $4.50... so that is $24.95 plus add a 15% tip and it is $28.69. So it's not a huge discount... but definatly a little cheaper.

ManyMore Posted April 17, 2009 #21 Share Posted April 17, 2009 As long as the Funship special is on there i'm good!

happybooker1 Posted April 24, 2009 #23 Share Posted April 24, 2009 I thought going thru my upcoming cruise stuff on line I saw where you could advance-order these cards? They are delivered to your cabin on the first day? Am I making stuff up or is that true? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tink tink Posted April 24, 2009 #24 Share Posted April 24, 2009 We cruised on the Sensation 2 weeks ago and when we inquired about the DOD cards we were told they we discontinued. Something about people were buying them and giving them to people underage.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
