duquephart Posted January 20, 2020 #1 Share Posted January 20, 2020 What do folks do with leftover "nips" every day? Leave them so only the missing gets replenished or stash them somewhere so everything gets replenished? Tell the truth! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SrCruizer Posted January 20, 2020 #2 Share Posted January 20, 2020 Truth be told my husband likes rum so asked only rum be stocked. He probably had only 1 or 2 um drinks a day. By the end of the cruise he did take home about 6 nips. So relative to the total number stocked, not that many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two or three rums a day on a 12 day cruise would be more than six total. One way to look at it is that you have paid for all of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Clay Clayton Posted January 20, 2020 #4 Share Posted January 20, 2020 We too asked to only have vodka and gin (they don’t stock bourbon 😢) but we didn’t stash the ones we didn’t drink everyday though one could. We tended to stash the shampoo and conditioner. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare vino100 Posted January 21, 2020 #7 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Is there really no bourbon in the mini bar ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

just_dont Posted January 23, 2020 #10 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Is there really no bourbon in the mini bar ? No Bourbon; just Dewars White Label blended Scotch (plus Beefeater gin, Smirnoff vodka, and the aforementioned Bacardi white rum)Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisesport Posted January 24, 2020 #11 Share Posted January 24, 2020 What about the chocolate bars ? Stash or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harbourside Posted January 24, 2020 #12 Share Posted January 24, 2020 We got 3 mini Toberone Bars, plus packet peanuts and packet of almonds. Is this the same for all ships, or do they change. Yes, we also ate the chocolate bars before the "chocolate man" came. 5 minutes ago, cruisesport said: What about the chocolate bars ? Stash or not?

just_dont Posted January 24, 2020 #13 Share Posted January 24, 2020 What about the chocolate bars ? Stash or not?Yes, we made sure our chocolates were replenished every day, and some did come home in our suitcase.

Rare Clay Clayton Posted January 26, 2020 #15 Share Posted January 26, 2020 (edited) Well I preferred the chips, especially after we had a batch of rancid nuts. #FirstWorldProblems 😂 Edited January 26, 2020 by Clay Clayton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agnesd Posted January 26, 2020 #16 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Just curious do they stock any kind of wine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Clay Clayton Posted January 26, 2020 #17 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Not automatically. I don’t know if you can request though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not besides the initial bottle of champaign (if you qualify). I read somewhere that a bottle of wine may substituted for the four little bottles of booze if requested. Doesn't hurt to ask.

We did request, and it was not a problem at all. We got a full bottle, which wasn’t replenished automatically, but they asked us if we wanted another when that one was gone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a Georgia Peach Posted January 26, 2020 #22 Share Posted January 26, 2020 (edited) We asked for the wine on the first day and the cabin steward brought it later that afternoon. He replaced it without us asking when he saw the empty bottle. Edited January 26, 2020 by Not a Georgia Peach 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
