During the past 6 months, I have cruised twice and I’m going on another cruise in October… I’ve discovered a few tips to help save money during your cruise… (to be able to cruise more, of course…). I’ve partnered with Jenn from Because I’m Cheap to provide my tips to her audience as well. Going on a cruise can be a very fun and exciting experience for you and your family. It can also be expensive if not properly planned. There are ways to save money and still have a fabulous time. These are my top nine tips.

Great tips! I have never been on a cruise so I didn’t even know some of these things existed! I have been considering taking my mom on a cruise and am all about sticking to a budget! Thanks for posting!

All food and drinks (water, tea, coffee, and lemonade) are pretty much standard on most cruises. Most cruises charge for soda and alcohol. As far as food, most cruises have specialty restaurants that they charge around $25 per person. The main dining hall is free and is really nice and have a wonderful menu. Personally, I think we’ve paid enough to get on the cruise, there is no need to pay for a specialty restaurant.
