SNJCruisers Posted March 12, 2017 #8 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Thanks for the heads up. Just bought $400. That will pay off our October cruise. Now to get the gift cards for Cheers. But that can wait. Dunno how much extra in gift cards to buy. If there's two of you and you're on a 7 day cruise, it'll be 700, plus 15%, or 805 for the week. Also need to account for you daily regular gratuities if you have not already. That will add just over 200 for the week, so 1000 in cards will just about cover it.

Sent from my XT1254 using Forums mobile app We prepaid gratuities already. Think I'll get about $1K more. That will pay for Cheers plus if we want to do another ship excursion (we already paid for one). If necessary, we will do the casino trick on the last night.

nychad10 Posted March 12, 2017 #11 Share Posted March 12, 2017 What is the casino trick? Sent from my iPhone using Forums If you do a search for casino trick you can find more detailed directions. But basically you put your gift cards on your S&S card and then go to the casino and put your S&S card in one of the slot machines. Play 1 spin and then choose the button that says cash out. Then you can take how much money in gift cards you have on your S&S card out at the cashier. I think there maybe a limit on how much you can take out at one time but I forget. I used the casino trick in June on $5500 in gift cards over 3 days and had no problems. I actually won a few dollars on my spins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
