Jack doesn't drink soda and since I usually have 3-4 per day on a cruise, it sounds like a good deal. I hope they offer caffeine free diet soda at the machines. I doubt they have it at the bars. Do both of us have to buy the soda package and how long does this sale last? Dining package dropped in price, but we're 2 people who feel the MDR food is sufficient. You would be fine with purchasing soda pkg for one person. When we cruised with our Son Chris and his Wife Donna we bought the soda pkg for Chris only as Donna doesn't drink soda. No issues at all. Maybe you want to book a lunch at a specialty restaurant. Basically same menus and much cheaper. Just a thought😊 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted November 9, 2023 #107702 Share Posted November 9, 2023 And here I was hoping to see some sale prices for our August cruise, when we are taking the grandkids along. Somehow, I don’t think those are good sale prices. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lenquixote66 Posted November 9, 2023 #107704 Share Posted November 9, 2023 I just finished my weekly Zoom Parkinsons Support Group session. We always discuss our illness but nothing of a personal nature. I began today by relating my morning phone call that I posted about earlier. Much to my surprise one of the regulars went to a HS very close to where I lived and another person grew up four blocks from where I did, . 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruiselvr04 Posted November 9, 2023 #107705 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Some prices are a bit crazy. Are people really paying that much for Coco beach club? Today I bought a couple of pairs of shoes that I need to break in for Australia and all the walking we plan on doing. I felt guilty for spending $150 for 2 pair of slip on sneakers that I’ll probably wear for the next 10 years. Compared to a day at Coco Cay I guess I’ll get my moneys worth. Tonight I’ll buy some water packages (still crazy prices but don’t want to lug them on board) and discuss with DH a couple of excursions that are actually reduced in price. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At that price I might try it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m resorting to WJ make your own with what you can find. I like iceberg so it’s the burger bar area for a small portion of lettuce, then chicken salad with a small slice of cheese from the soup area, then over to the salad area for toppings. Sometimes they have ham in the salad area but I haven’t seen tuna or chicken. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Momof3gurlz Posted November 9, 2023 #107710 Share Posted November 9, 2023 No deals for us in today’s fake sale LOL. I’m hoping maybe there will be a real sale on actual Black Friday, but not holding my breath. I’ve been recipe testing today. We’re going out to dinner Saturday night with newish friends then having them back to our house for dessert. I made an Olive Oil Pumpkin Cake which I had several weeks ago at a girlfriends house. Sounds strange but it was delicious. The other recipe I tried is a Baileys Chocolate Cream Pie. So bottom line is Andy and I have a couple of desserts to test tonight after dinner. The leftovers will go to my neighbor who doesn’t bake but loves sweets. I sure don’t want them here along with the leftover Halloween candy! 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare A&L_Ont Posted November 10, 2023 #107712 Share Posted November 10, 2023 Last game of the football season. Temperature was 40F and sunny. 3 wins this season, 3 more than what the SRs had in 8 years. Read the plaque. LOL, it was made by the school board. It’s the consolation round, not the consultation round. 11 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJSailors Posted November 10, 2023 #107717 Share Posted November 10, 2023 Good morning ,all. The Rockefeller Center Christmas tree is on its’ way to NYC. It was found in BinghamtonNY (Upstate ) and is eighty feet tall. The tree arrives tomorrow and soon it will be strewn with lights. Maybe Greg or Jimbo would like to lend a hand in decorating the tree? MJ🙋🏻♀️ 5 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arzeena Posted November 10, 2023 #107720 Share Posted November 10, 2023 I checked our Celebrity sailings for BF sales....zilch in cruise planner. Sailings are 75% off second person, but with cruise prices raised from $200 up on our sailings. So "fake" sale 😝.🤣 .We have a couple cruises where we did not do AI. I called to get a quote wifi and Zero Proof with Elite+ discount and got a better rate, so booked that on one. Perhaps the CP things will go on sale later, so will keep checking. I am looking for dining pkgs on Beyond since I am interested in eating at a couple restaurants there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
