Beer Cooler deal?

[Archie4]

Anybody off Explorer recently see these ?

[whyrlygig]

Majesty had it last week for Bud products ONLY. Would not let my room mate sneak in a couple Miller Lites for me.

[derwoodff64]

Sounds great

I'd like to know that too, we're sailing on Jewel next week.

 

We already have a cooler which we purchased around 4 cruises ago. Since then we've only seen it once, they brought it out on the last day of our cruise on Mariner in September :rolleyes:

 

We're planning on taking it with us on Jewel anyway ;)

We had the Cooler on the Allure in June 2011! The staff LOVES to keep it full for you!

The only thing that is certain is that you will never know.

 

RCI is consistently inconsistent in such matters.:rolleyes:

Does anyone have a picture of the RC cooler bags? I am trying to describe them to my DW but cannot find a thread with the picture in it. Also, if you can maybe explain the benefits of the bag while on the ship that would be great!

There's a picture in this thread;

Much appreciated!

I've never seen them, are they still available?

[redhead621]

They are still available. My husband brought 3 home from our Oasis cruise yesterday.

They keep the beer much colder than the old plastic bucket.

Do you know if the brand of beers vary at all? Just curious if Miller Lite is ever offered or are the brands very consistent?

Sorry, but I have to ask............... Why does he have 3 of them? Aren't they refillable?

[IWORK2CRUISE]

On Oasis in December the deal was limited to Bud, Bud Light and Michelob Ultra.

We would have preferred Coors Light.

Since we wanted the bag as a souvenir and really don't like Bud or Bud Light we tried the Michelob Ultra and got the discount.

It was approx 34.00 for the first one and 25 (and change) for refills. It is eight 16oz beers so the value was good.

We've asked about these on our last few cruises, and they haven't had them on any of the ships. The last one was on the Navigator in November. Are they only available on certain ships?

[sledhead]

Was just on the Serenade 2 weeks ago and they no longer offered the cooler bags. Just the regular buckets. Apparently it wasnt profitable. Passengers from previous cruises would bring them on another cruise and get them refilled. The initial cost was a little more and subsequent refills were cheaper. This is coming from a bartender on board.

[bugger83]

does the los have cooler bags?

[redhead621]

They are refillable. He got the first one, a bartender gave him the second bag, and while we were out and about without either of the other 2 bags, he bought a third. Two have been packed away with the pool stuff for the summer and the 3rd one is packed with the suitcases awaiting a return to the sea.

[ArbysSauce]

Anyone know if these are available on the Voyager? Thanks!

I wonder if they have them on Explorer. Now that you mentioned it, they would be perfect for the pool.............

Boo hoo! I have been looking forward to getting one of these since I first heard about them! That's what you get for booking your cruise so far in advance - :rolleyes:.

 

Ms. Redhead - if you decide to part with one of yours, I'll be happy to make it worth your while! I don't care about the refill savings so much as I know these are better at keeping bevs cold than those buckets!

They seem to be ship specific. I've been on the Monarch and Jewel recently and they don't have them any longer.

[henchgt]

Navigator had them last week. deal was buy any 8 beers you wanted and you get the cooler for free. Was only good for the first three days of the cruise.
