Available funds is not an issue...just want to know what to budget based on a typical day...hard to do when you don't know costs of individual drinks!

Monalis Posted October 7, 2013 #6 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Well average with 15% tips: $6-6.50 for beer, $7-10 wine by the glass, $7.50-$9.50 for cocktails and frozen drinks (not including drinks of the day in souvenir cups), shots $4-7ea.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free Sorry, I still don't get it. If funds are not an issue, then your drink budget is unlimited. However if you only have $70 to budget each day then it is the money, not the price of the drink, that determines your budget. IOW if drinks are $10 ea, then you can have 7 per day on a $70 budget. However, if the drinks are $7 ea, then you can have 10 per day...again on the same $70 budget. I can determine my $70 per day budget solely based on the available funds...I don't even need to know what the drinks cost. The budget is determined by the money....not the quantity.

I have seen that same drink menu list...was just wondering if the prices had changed much since that menu is from January/12. Seashark...sorry you don't get the concept of wanting to know how much drinks cost so that you can budget for it. Don't know why wanting to know drink prices is such a secretive thing with you cruise people! I can do the math thanks...don't need your smart ass comments :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monalis Posted October 8, 2013 #9 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Monalis....thanks for the input. I have seen that same drink menu list...was just wondering if the prices had changed much since that menu is from January/12. Someone posted pictures of the little cards with the drinks of the day on them, and the drinks ran just about the same prices that were on that other menu. Just don't forget to figure in the 15% service charge added to each drink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rigs32 Posted October 8, 2013 #10 Share Posted October 8, 2013 For the budget conscious, you are hard pressed to beat the happy hour in the Star Bar. I'd gladly pay a $20 cover charge for an upscale appetizer selection to accompany happy hour as an alternative to lobsters the size of your thumb on lobster night. The OP is going on a charter. There is no such thing for them. Buckets of beer are popular. 6 for the price of 5 and they give you a bucket w ice to carry around. Perfect for taking to shows.

I know at all-inclusive resorts, the drinks tend to be just a bit larger than a Dixie cup. I can't believe no one has any drink pics!

danogg Posted October 8, 2013 Author #14 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Finally found a pretty extensive drink list...from Breakaway but I would imagine drink prices and selection would be similar on all the different ships? http://cruisewithgambee.com/norwegian-drink-lists/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
