NoVa Mimi Posted July 20, 2006 #1 Share Posted July 20, 2006 On our recent Mariner cruise we had leftover coupons from our Platinum coupon book. Our steward told us that we could not leave them in the suite (OS 1600) as they throw away everything left behind. I really wanted to leave them in hopes that someone else might be able to use them so we wrote a little note to whoever may find them telling them that we were passing the coupons on in hopes that someone would be able to use them and if they had any leftover from their book, maybe they would do the same and signed it "Random Acts of Kindness". We folded the note around the coupon books and neatly put them in a blanket that was folded up and stored on the top shelf of a closet during our entire cruise. Since the blanket was their when we had arrived, chances are that perhaps the steward would leave it as it was. Hopefully someone will find them, use them and pass on their leftovers :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyager Posted July 20, 2006 #2 Share Posted July 20, 2006 I tape them in the inside of one of the life jackets in a envelope with a note and my email addy. Kinda like a message in a bottle. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superjerryw Posted July 20, 2006 #3 Share Posted July 20, 2006 You can sell the unused coupons on EBay to help fund the next cruise.....:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted July 20, 2006 #4 Share Posted July 20, 2006 Just leave them in a drawer--the next guest can and do use them. Our friends, (1st cruise) found platinum coupons in their room, and used them all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfcathorse Posted July 20, 2006 #5 Share Posted July 20, 2006 I left mine on top of the vanity mirror in the sitting area. No guy would ever THINK of dusting up there!!!!!!!!!!!!! I thought about putting them under the mattress but then the steward would find them if (and I know its a BIG if) he flipped the mattress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sas80 Posted July 20, 2006 #6 Share Posted July 20, 2006 We leave ours in the safe propped up against the wall. We try to make them as invisible as possible so the room steward wont see them and throw them away. I figure, even if he does find, and toss them, it's at least good karma to leave them in the hopes that the next passenger will find them..... right? :confused: :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckrobyn Posted July 20, 2006 #7 Share Posted July 20, 2006 I tape them in the inside of one of the life jackets in a envelope with a note and my email addy. Kinda like a message in a bottle. :D What an amazing idea! I would love to find that on my next cruise :) I left our un-used coupons for the next passenger in the drawer of our bar area ( we had a GS) I figured since there was leftover clamatto juice from the previous passenger ( gross!) the cabin steward would obviously not look there!

crisp1 Posted July 20, 2006 #10 Share Posted July 20, 2006 You could send to a newbie like me :). I could sure use them on my 9/22 Explorer cruise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlx2 Posted July 21, 2006 #11 Share Posted July 21, 2006 We happened to bring ours back from our previous cruise. Are they still valid on a future cruise? I didn't remember seeing an expiration date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunnieD Posted July 21, 2006 #12 Share Posted July 21, 2006 I think either the voyage number or the date gets filled in by the taker of the coupon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
