Creator's Key Takeaways

I personally wouldn't pay for these things again I've been doing this since I was 13

I totally see why you would book a suite though if you have limited time of work or you have a bigger budget than mine for me though a suite is an Easy Pass

I find it frustrating that a lot of people assume that you have to spend money on food on a cruise of course the cruise lines want you to do that people want to sell you things but you do not have to spend anything extra

I don't think I've ever managed to drink back the cost of the high-end expensive drinks packages

Creator's Tips & Advice

You don't have to spend extra money on food; eat the included options.
Consider buying a soda package instead of a full drinks package.
Look for discounts on specialty dining on the first day of a cruise.
Bring your own alcohol to save money, following cruise line rules.

YouTube Video Description

I LOVE being a budget cruiser but that doesn't mean that I don't like to try expensive things from time to time. Would I pay for these things again? Probably not. Or at least I wouldn't pay full price for them. In this video I talk about a few expensive things I've tried on cruises, some through discounts and promotions and some through having friends who have access to the expensive things. ▶ SUBSCRIBE for weekly cruise tips, tours and news: https://bit.ly/34ltwZi ▶ STAY UP TO DATE: http://emmacruises.com/news ▶ JOIN US ON PATREON: https://bit.ly/3kmSZan ▶ BOOKING A CRUISE?
