Thread: Money Saving Tip #2...

Try Miller, I know they put it in plastic.. Not sure about the others though.. Ask the mgr. of your local grocery store. If it's available, ask him to get you a case....

We usually pick up beer in the port we are sailing from, but it's good to know for non-cruise functions too.

This is something all first time cruisers should take heed of, everything is way more expensive on the ship!

Bombero "For example, a one day supply of dramamine, 'a 4 pack', can cost about $3.99 on the ship 'I know.'"

Good tips. Most of the ships we were on had free Meclazine (Bonine). Might pay to ask at the "front desk' or the infirmary.

Using ziplock bags for all liquids is a wise move. I even duct tape the seals of particularly smelly liquids that require smuggling.

Good tip, Bombero! I pack a variety of travel sizes of things like Bonine, Advil, toothpaste, bandaids, Immodium, Purell, antibiotic cream, sewing kit, temporary dental repair kit, aloe (for sunburns) Qtips and more. Ziplock bags work well for keeping everything together. Makes it easy for security to see what it is also.

I have mine packed!

This is sage advice! We always bring any meds that we need (prescriptions) as well as anything we might need, such as Bonine, Benedryl and Immodium...we don't want our trips ruined!!
