Deluxe Drink Package (using new math)

[RevLee]

Just heard there was a sale on the deluxe drink package, buy one get one 50% off. (actually listed as 25% off each purchased). WOW, went to go order it as we have been on the fence on the cost since we are not heavy drinkers. Old price (which I remembered was $50). New "discounted price" is now $47 (price reflects discount). Must be that new math out there? Even if you factor in the gratuity of18% it still doesn't add up. Guess they think we don't think we know how to do basic math.

..saved % is based on price you would pay on the ship, not off what you pay purchased before cruise.

Don’t know about maths but I believe they expect you can read.

It is based on $62 for 1, $31 for the bogo 1/2 off = $93.00 for 2 or $46.50 pp pd. Royal has the new math down to a T. + grats

I hate to say this but this isn't "new math" by any means. It's old math. 50% off of one. If the Drink package is $55, then 50% of $55 is $27.50. Gratuity of 18% brings the price to $32.45. The full price one is $55 plus 18% equals $64.90. The total is $97.35. Divided by two thats a total of $48.67 per person. Nothing new about this math.

This is such an old, over discussed topic, and the conspiracy theories abound.

It’s quite simple, the BOGOHO sale is based on the price if booked on board.

On board price of $62 minus 25% is $46.50.
