SkersCruiser Posted April 14, 2011 #1 Share Posted April 14, 2011 I'm just wondering if you can buy the unlimited soda sticker halfway through the cruise for a reduced price? I really don't think it's worth it to me as the only time we drink pop is when we're mixing it with something. I ordered a couple bottles through BV and plan on bringing on our mixers when we board, but I was just thinking about what we'll do if we run out of our mixers!

okgirl Posted April 14, 2011 #2 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Yes, you can purchase the card at any time and only be charged for the remaining days. You would be better off to purchase a whole unopened can of soda to take back to your cabin. The soda card only gets you a glass of soda over ice, I don't even think they will pour a soda only glass. There will also be cans of soda in your cabin that are priced at regular bar prices and your room steward will take care of bringing you the variety that you want.

I thought when I asked on the Glory in March I was told you could only buy it on the first and second days. They may let you buy it further in, but not at a continued discount.

No, I'm certain you might not be able to purchase it on the last day, but I know at least 1/2 way through the cruise you can because that's the only time I've ever gotten one.

They will just prorate the price for you. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the Elation last year we were refused the card after the second day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruiseinNJ Posted April 14, 2011 #11 Share Posted April 14, 2011 On the Glory and Pride last year I bought soda cards beyond day 2 - no problems. Price was pro-rated for length of time left of the cruise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serene56 Posted April 14, 2011 #12 Share Posted April 14, 2011 I was told the same thing here on CC, had to buy it on 1st or 2nd day. guess it depends on the ship/server/ - also on the Pride in February we had to buy it the first two days.

FirstTimeCruiser2002 Posted April 14, 2011 #13 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Anyone know how much a can of soda costs onboard? $2.00 per can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NHcruisergirl Posted April 14, 2011 #14 Share Posted April 14, 2011 We were on the Legend in Feb and you could only buy it the first and second day. The bartender told us it is the best deal to buy it on the second day because you only have a half day on the day you board but get charged for a full day and once at sea you do not have to pay tax as you would if you were still in port. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtexan Posted April 14, 2011 #15 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Anyone know how much a can of soda costs onboard? $1.95 per can, plus gratuity. Comes out to like $2.25 or so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cajunchick Posted April 16, 2011 #18 Share Posted April 16, 2011 we could only get it the first two days on the triumph last year but I always buy it on the second day for the above stated reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamdug73 Posted April 18, 2011 #19 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Last year on Conquest you couldn't purchase the soda sticker after day 2. We had planned on buying it on day 3 or 4 but they told us that they don't sell them after 2nd day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
