Not worth the paper it's printed on.

Throw away item. Into the wastebasket!

All the coupons require you to purchase something to get something.

 

One funny note - all of the coupons in our book had expired!

We asked at the front desk and they said they would still honor them.

Sorry- it's not good news. :o

Makes you wonder if people really make their decision based on freebies that cannot be used.

I do like the money credits and free dinner at Pinnacle, even a couple of bottles of wine, all these can be used.

jeez, you're right... since all coupons in the sunday paper aren't for freebies, I should always throw away coupons if they don't just GIVE me things... :rolleyes:

 

To the OP-

Basically, the coupons give you perks on a SECOND one of whatever... If you like to take part in A LOT of the shipboard games, activities, shopping, spa, casino, etc etc you'll probably find some of them useful

 

I would personally be AMAZED if anyone used all of them during a cruise...

 

Is it the greatest TA giveaway ever? N. Is it decent? yes.

Possibly useable by some.

I agree that not all those coupons are welcome by all of us but some are useable by most of us.

I don't think it totally fair to just say worthless and toss the booklet.

JMHO.......

If that booklet was free somewhere, I want one.

 

There are a few of those that would go with purchases I'm planning to make onboard anyway.

 

Why not save a few bucks or get something along with a purchase if you're planning to make it anyway???
