BratDet Posted May 25, 2016 #1 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Good morning all, We have sailed on Caribbean Princess quite a few times, but not recently. Any recent cruisers able to tell me if the laundry is now cruise card payment, or still quarters in the slot payment? Not sure if they retro converted older ships from coin to cruise card tokens. Thanks! Bernadette Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier-Cruiser Posted May 25, 2016 #2 Share Posted May 25, 2016 During our spring break cruise last year, the laundry room had switched to the room key and token system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

msmoger Posted May 25, 2016 #5 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Just to be clear, you use your cruise card to get tokens from a dispenser in the laundry room and use the tokens in the machines. If the dispenser is empty, you can get tokens from the passenger services desk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought a bunch when they were on sale a long time ago for use on vacation (we own a timeshare in Orlando and I like to bring them there with me) and I still have a few left, which will be coming to me on our Alaskan cruise. I'm getting low so I was hunting for them in the stores but they don't seem to make them anymore - just those laundry pods. Bummer. They sure were convenient.

BratDet Posted May 25, 2016 Author #8 Share Posted May 25, 2016 (edited) I had bought a supply, but they were also amazing for my son to use during Army basic training. That cut into my cruise stash. Edited May 25, 2016 by BratDet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chardonnaylover Posted May 25, 2016 #9 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Hi The Purex 3-1 sheets are still available on Amazon. 20 for $23.99. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean&Gene Posted May 26, 2016 #10 Share Posted May 26, 2016 For our Alaska cruise, we purchased a bag of Tide Pods in Seattle since we were done with flying. We used what we needed and sold the rest to fellow passengers for less than the cost of the powder in the dispenser. Fellow passengers got a good deal and we got back what we paid for the plus a little extra to pay for our washers. Not sure what we are going to do on the next cruise. At least we don't have to take quarters! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel Posted May 26, 2016 #11 Share Posted May 26, 2016 So, do all ships use the cruise card to get tokens or do some require quarters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
