Creator's Key Takeaways

be sure to factor in your usage of both alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks

Royal is masterful at marketing and making you think that their sales are the best time and the only time to buy

Royal often changes the price they'll bump up the starting price show a bigger discount and ultimately land at a final price that's about the same

your weeklong drink package could be another $100 just for tips

✓Monitor the price regularly and buy when you see the price you want
✓Keep watching the price after you buy and cancel/rebuy if it drops
