Creator's Key Takeaways

we put together a list of 10 things that we believe are a waste of money

photo packages that's right those guys walking around the ship asking if they can always take a photo of you

a typical drink package costs anywhere from 50 to $100 per person per day

a typical massage on a cruise ship can be anywhere from $150 to $200 to start

Creator's Tips & Advice

Do the math for your drink package before purchasing
Check if gratuities have been added before tipping twice
Research free options at ports before booking shore excursions
Put your phone into airplane mode to avoid roaming fees
Shop at ports for toiletries instead of on the ship
