cctimmom Posted January 31, 2011 #1 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Does anyone know how much a Pet at Sea costs, and approximately how much the outfits cost? I just saw that you can have a certificate/card gifted to the cabin for $29.95 (pet + one outfit)... I was wondering if I should surprise my son with that so he can take it and redeem it himself... or if I should just wait and buy it onboard for him. Also... wondering if anyone has any pictures they might like to share that I could show him of Pets that have been adopted during your vacations. I want to get him excited about the selections, as we are going to write a story about my son's two traveling bears and their new friend (the Pet at Sea) that they will meet on board...

mibarron Posted January 31, 2011 #2 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Depending on the outfits and accessories they're roughly about $15. The prices are similar enough to Build a Bear, but the actual store is about a thrid the size. Go early, within the first few days, because if you wait some of the good animals and outfits are gone.

cctimmom Posted January 31, 2011 Author #3 Share Posted January 31, 2011 good advice to go early... we probably were anyway, just in terms of writing the story book (it's going to be a Shutterfly photo book of our vacation, but geared more towards a story for my son), but I didn't even think that inventory would deplete as the week went on. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mibarron Posted January 31, 2011 #4 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Your welcome. For us, because we went in the summer, there were a ton of kids there. We went early to get the stuffed animal, but when we went back later in the week to get another outfit, we were very limited. I guess it all depends on when you go. If it's during the time when school is out, I would definitely plan on going early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melba1024 Posted January 31, 2011 #5 Share Posted January 31, 2011 I paid the same price as you found for purchaseing early... $29.95 for an animal and an outfit. I would assume that some of the items they have are different prices and would make your total go up or down. I thought the price was very reasonable and like mibarron said similar to Build a Bear. Definitely go early! The cruise I was just on was when school was in session and they still ran out. Check for the first time that they are open (very limited and only for a couple of hours a time) and try to go then. Enjoy! It really is worth it!

twofastdogs Posted February 1, 2011 #6 Share Posted February 1, 2011 i agree with the pricing. If you wait you might get a coupon, we did for 10% off in our C&A booklet. My son got a very mean looking crocodile and my daughter got a panda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bakincakes Posted February 1, 2011 #7 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I didn't even know that place existed until I happened upon it by accident. Didn't look like there was much inventory and I asked the clerk if she had been busy and she told me not at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LovesCruising Posted February 1, 2011 #8 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Bought a certificate for each of my grandsons for Christmas - cruising the Explorer in March; anyone know how good their store is - assume it is small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mlmc424 Posted February 1, 2011 #9 Share Posted February 1, 2011 The Explorer store is very tiny and was only open a couple of nights on the cruise we were just on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newbiecruiser09 Posted February 1, 2011 #10 Share Posted February 1, 2011 On Majesty last April it wasn't even a store--just a kiosk type thing that was open certain hours each day. Our DD did a really cute dolphin (we had done a dolphin encounter at Atlantis) and did not get an outfit (kinda took away from the dolphin we thought). There was a line each time we saw it open but I don't know if they ran out of certain animals (we were only a 4 nighter). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
