Shopping aboard Bliss

[MariCruises]

We'll be on the Bliss out of Miami on 12/24.  I'm wondering what shopping is available on board.  I'm planning for my husband to treat me to a great Christmas present.

What will you be getting him?

I personally wouldn't buy anything on a ship. Spend the money at your local jeweler.

Disagree....it's for the memory of the cruise.  I overpay all the time....if I see something I like.  The trinket reminds me of the great time.  I can "value shop" any day of the week at home.

Nothing.  He hates gifts.  It's ridiculous and a continual disagreement between us.  The best gift to him is to get him nothing.  It's weird.  I hate it.

I want to buy something on the ship.

I think I'll pass on that one.  (I see you're very near me.  I'm in West Mount Airy in Philadelphia)

Ignore the grinches .. it looks like Bliss has the same selection of shops as Getaway/Breakaway/Escape and epic. 
there’ll be a shop with jewellery from Effy and other painfully expensive brands, and there’ll be more budget friendly items in one of the other shops. Also there’s always the places in port too where you might find something a bit more unique.  
I got a Buckley bracelet with a turtle charm on my last sailing on Epic, and I try to pick up local specific Alex and Ani bracelets if I come across them. But I tend not to spend major money on jewellery and don’t have a husband to buys it for me either.

There are various gifts that you could give him that will cost you zero money.🌬️

 That's hilarious.  🤣   The "Pets in Heaven" painting is a classic.

We just got off the Bliss and loved our Panama Canal cruise.  Onboard shopping is pretty much limited to Jewelry, some handbags and sunglasses.  Otherwise the standard booze, T-shirts and some clothing items that are ehhh and not much.  Enjoy!  We loved the ship.

Oh, but don't forget the art show and opportunities to buy!! You even get a free gift for attending the auctions.

Don't forget the "Champagne"!  Maybe pickup a nice, understated, Peter Max print.

I always have some OBC to spend.  Had to spend some at Pandora on Bliss😉

 

On the Bliss in September I found a nice Citizen watch.

Do you know if there is a Pandora on the Encore?  Have 100 in OBC from stocks to spend. 😉

We were on Encore for our last pre-Covid cruise.   I don't recall seeing Pandora then but that could have changed by now.  My notes from that cruise say I found some Uno de 50 jewelry.  I have a couple of their pieces.  Silver necklaces and bracelets, some with blue stones.

Thanks!  That's helpful.
