Even if you don’t drink much alcohol you can soon get your money’s worth in bottled water, juice, smoothies and premium coffees etc, it includes the gratuity as well. As others said check prices regularly and just cancel and rebook if the price drops, in the ‘my cruises’ planner section. Same with tours.

We did out first cruise last summer, RC and Cocco Cay.

We had on board credit and used that for wifi - worth it! The drinks package though we didn't buy, and there was was plenty to drink still, still lemonade, juices and coffees etc. We thought we'd be drinking lots of fizzy in Orlando anyway.

They had an offer on on our last night as a bar so we had a cocktail each to sign off.

Similar with food - for first time and short cruise, there was enough choice and variety not to pay for extra. Maybe I am tight...but if looking at a package, you are money wise too!

Sure you will have an awesome time, seems a life time ago last July now, but s glad we have the awesome memories.

I'm one of the bad folk. I take on a bottle of wine per person (which youre allowed) but I also take on 2 litres of vodka. I've done this several times and never got caught!

I've got a few containers which are called a rum runners. They are clear bags that have no metal. I fill them with vodka and put them in with my toileteries. If your case gets scanned its hard to detect.
I've done rum runners too on a few Disney cruises!

Alot of people dont know this but if you call them and tell them one of the party doesnt drink alcohol they will let you just get the refreshment package. We do this every time as Im not a drinker but love my coffees and iced drinks. My mom gets the alcohol package though as she likes a cocktail or 10.
