That is not our experience. On our last two cruises, we had a "insert" for a free bag, and an "insert" for $29.
Who do you think provides those "inserts". Clue: it's not your bartender.
Are you just being your fun self? I guess I should have said the "free" tags can be given to you by your room steward. They don't come from the Corporate Assistant Laundry Manager.

I'm pretty sure if you're both Platinum in a Club Balcony on a long cruise, your room steward will get you all the free laundry you want -- within reason, of course.
Don't be discouraged. There are a number of things that should have been done differently. But we sailed her and had a fantastic time, regardless.
You make a positive cruise, or you make a negative cruise. It's really up to you.
luv2, I always appreciate your posts, but let's be fair. It's not just NCL. Perhaps you've forgotten that Royal has overbooked FIVE cruises in the last 6 months? Some just weeks (or less) from sailing? Imagine that clusterf**k.
We should never be a cheerleader for any cruise line -- but neither should we be a hater.
No surprise with your experience in a cold weather climate on Prima. We cruised the Caribbean on Prima and didn't care for it.
Don't say "one and done". That's just silly. Try the Encore anywhere, preferably a shoulder season for the region with the kids in school. Amazing experience.
We've never done a TA or TP, but want to. I think it's really an entirely different breed of cat. This is a good place to start, but there are also some great YouTube videos on this subject that give the good, bad, and ugly.
Good luck researching, we're doing the same.
