  1. Those will not really do much. The beer when opened will release Co2 and build up pressure and pop those off. You need the ones that expand inside the neck of a bottle to keep the pressure inside to inhibit the release.

     

    Also, exposure to oxygen can cause beer to rapidly develop off-flavors. If you want to try re-sealing a beer, try to fill the headspace (the area between the top of the beer and the bottom of the seal) with foam by swirling it just a little bit and then apply the seal. That will fill the headspace with good CO2 from the foam instead of bad oxygen. Then keep it as cold as possible until you're ready to drink it. That will slow down the losd of carbonation. Unfortunately, the loss of some carbonation is unavoidable once the original seal is broken. /Signed, a homebrewer

  2. As I understand it, the only changes are increasing the types of non-alcoholic drinks that are included, increasing the maximum price of alcoholic drinks that are included, and increasing the charge by $5/day *IF* you buy it on-ship (no increase if you buy it beforehand). Did I miss anything? Seems like a positive move to me.
