We were in the boat of undecided in terms of the drink package, and we definitely made the WRONG choice. We did not get it.
We did everything as we typically would have with it, only decided to chance it and see what the bill would be at the end. We didn't want to make a mistake by getting it and finding it isn't worth it. Our typical day consisted of capuccino in the morning, bottle of water, pina colada or maybe 2 during the day, one more bottle of water, a cocktail for happy hour, drinks in the evening. We are not the kind of people who were up at the nightclub drinking or even up late, and don't drink beer. I think this is where the problem came in. We drink wine or liquor (my husband is a scotch drinker). It kicked out butt in the end. But, we learned from it and now know what to do for next time :)
Also, we had heard you could only get one drink at a time and only for one person. That simply was not the case once you tipped the bartenders at your favorite bar. Another couple we met later on in the trip only had the package for one. They just kept getting refilled, and the bartenders got a bit of extra cash. Not a bad deal if you ask me! You could always go from one bar to the next at the pool as well. You just can't order the drinks at one time, but you can order them back to back.
Drink Package was best cruise deal ever!
