DOD cards?


Talulah

Recommended Posts

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

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!

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!

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.

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%.

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.

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....

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.

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.
