JaneyLynn Posted February 17, 2018 #1 Share Posted February 17, 2018 I'm heading out next Friday and I'm trying to get an idea of how much money I need to bring for my S&S (I secure with a credit card but put money on it to cover almost all). Does anyone know the recent price for a bucket of beer? It was $26 last time I drank on board, just want to make sure it didn't go up much more then $30. The wine I normally get went up from $26 to $32. I know $6 isn't much but my OCD and "list o' money" get uncomfy when it's off by more then a few bucks. Thanks in advance!!

jayscore Posted February 17, 2018 #4 Share Posted February 17, 2018 My opinion is, the "discount" in buying a bucket of beer is nil. The winner is the server who sold it to you. (Good for them!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcpagejr Posted February 17, 2018 #5 Share Posted February 17, 2018 My opinion is, the "discount" in buying a bucket of beer is nil. The winner is the server who sold it to you. (Good for them!) Not sure what you mean "The winner is the server".... If I buy 4 or 5 individuals from the same person its likely more gratuity. He actually gets less if I buy a bucket instead of buying them separately ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The discount is basically 50 cents off a beer. So $2 savings on a bucket. Not bad I’ll take anything I can get for a discount. And you can mix beers. We always get 2 beers my wife wants and 2 I want.

splintz Posted February 17, 2018 #9 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Which brand beer is 12 oz? Corona. Dos Equis. Sierra Nevada pale ale. Probably most of the imports except of course fosters. Also they usually have local craft beers from port you sail from. I forget the one they have in Miami. We sail out of Baltimore a lot and they have Heavy Seas beer like Loose Cannon.

JaneyLynn Posted February 18, 2018 Author #12 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Thank you for all the replies!! I'm going to budget $30 + 15% + $2 tip. $36.50 per bucket max We love getting buckets of beer during the movies. They stay iced down and we don't have to keep searching for a server when we're done with the first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BK512 Posted February 18, 2018 #13 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Okay, silly question. Do all the beers in the bucket come opened? Or can hubby save a few for later? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmichael1279 Posted February 18, 2018 #14 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Okay, silly question. Do all the beers in the bucket come opened? Or can hubby save a few for later? They'll come closed! We usually buy a bucket to keep a few cold back in the cabin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs.C05 Posted December 28, 2019 #17 Share Posted December 28, 2019 I get the bucket of beer too and save them in the room for when I'm getting ready or relaxing on the balcony. I get all 4 to myself 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
