Coupon Book Update

[shecat]

Received my documents along with my $300 value coupon book. There is a coupon for your first 500 tokens in the casino free. I am not a casino person. Does this mean $125 credit on my casino account?

How did you get a coupon book?

Hey

I'm suppose to get one of those booklets for booking with Best Price Cruises this week. I'll take the tokens, I've never really played in a casino before and if it's Carnival's money...

Any else good in there? I'm travelling on my own on Victory so you can skip the buy one get one coupons and anything for the supper clubs.

Took me 3 e-mails to get my book ( should have been 2- for 2 cabins) from BPC's, in the end, it's no big deal. BTW what is the Ocean Players Club? that is what gets you the 500 Ocean tokens

Bomber ~ I think Best Price Cruises had a promo going, which included the coupon book. SheCat had another thread awhile back about it.

LIke SheCat said, it's hardly worth mentioning, as most of the things in there are already complimentary on Carnival cruises, anyway. [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif[/img]

Since we booked with BPC for our NCL cruise about a year ago, I'm glad to find out that the coupon book is not that big a deal. I was feeling cheated when I first opened this thread. Was wondering if I should hold my final payment as hostage to get a coupon book LOL [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

It wasn't just BPC that offered the coupon books; my TA did too. I think I remember seeing it on the Carnival website at the time I booked, so I'm guessing it was a Carnival promo.

Shecat, thanks for the list, yeah, nothing too interesting there except maybe the free glass, drink of the day specials here I come!

Crisp1, Ocean players club is Carnival's comp program for the casino, from what I can tell 100 tokens = 1 dollar IF you meet the minimum pla requirements:2 hours/day minimum $25 bet or $625/day into the slot machines. Not my idea of fun but if it's your thing and you have the money you might as well join.
