Anybody want to guess how much I spent on booze on the cruise?

Keep in mind that in order to make the booze drinks package worth it, I would have had to have spent $75 every day on alcohol (which is how much more on top of the non-booze package I got it would have cost).

So as long as my total is below $750 I made the right choice.

Closest guess wins umm.. a prize of some kind.. I'll figure it out. Guesses open until 9pm.

$0. I don't think you had any cos you got the covid.

I'm guessing $23 on a single fancy drink, which you could only half taste.

Ahh the prize thingy makes a lot more sense now. Even on a cruise, I can't imagine spending $75 a day on booze! That's insane.

Assuming that on the 10 days of the cruise, 3 days you didn't drink much if any at all cos feeling like dogshit. Also assuming average price of a booze was between 15 and 20 dollars - so to make the package you'd have to drink 4-5 boozes per day every day, or at least 6-7 boozes on the days you did drink boozes which seems like a lot. I think your booze bill would top out at around $500 at most and might be around $300. I'll go with the latter - $300.
