$50 OBC

[CozGurl]

We received $50 OBC from the agency we booked through. How would you spend it if it was yours?

I'm buy onboard credit for that nice Paul Bogle fellow.

[cheersforbeers]

My bride is not a big drinker, like her spouse and we put it towards speciality coffees

[victory2020]

If it's a refundable credit use it towards your service charges.

[kochleffel]

I don't choose the Unlimited Beverage Plan, but I'm also not a total abstainer, so I usually figure that it will count against my bar tab. Once I still had $32 in nonrefundable credit left on the last night and no plan for any further drinking on board, so purchased a bottle of Cognac.

We don’t usually buy that much onboard, especially if we’ve got the beverage package as a perk. Any OBC usually subsidizes our CruiseNext certificates!

 

 

Yeah, we’re boring, whatever! 😉

[tallnthensome]

$50 whole dollars? ....... Probably on a bunch of M&M’s and some liquor from the on board shops.

this is what i usually do. some entertainers onboard might sell their cd, so i use the OBC for that if i like them like the choir of man

Some $10 t-shirts from your cruise

I always put it with my $100 shareholder perk for full payment of $250 Cruise Next voucher.

Even if you have to take the $100 out your wallet it's still good value for a $250 voucher.

Use it to pay for your booze taxes on the first day.

covers the drink VAT charges while in port

Defray the cost of a shore excursion or use it for the NCL post trip airport transfer, basically makes one passenger free.

 

Try and exercise class that has a fee of $10-15

 

Shopping onboard: $10 sale day, cheap watch sale, specialty coffee, photos, lanyard for sea pass, etc.

When we get one from our TA, which is most of the time: we use it towards our final bill. If it is a non refundable OBC which is offered via the cruise line for something, we spend it in a gift shop or the casino.

We have $100 each on our next cruise as part of a promotion. Our fare already includes drink package and all grats. I will probably use it in the spa or for shopping.

Sounds like a good plan. You can also plan some Specialty dining or shore excursions.

[casofilia]

As we normally RESERVE our NCL shorex because we have the $50 Shorex perk we would use it on shorex to cover the extra costs.

[CozGurl]

I wonder if we could eat in a specialty restaurant for $50?

 

Maybe we'll apply it to laundry.

 

$50 is an amount that you can't do a lot with but don't want to let it go to waste either.

Even if $50 doesn’t cover it, it’ll make it way cheaper 

[casofilia]

A main (entree) would set you back between $15 and $20 each so $50 would get you part of the way!!
