Cruise Freebies - Look Out For Onboard Giveaways

If you have been pinching the pennies to save for your dream cruise

, you are going to want to get as much out of the experience as you possibly can. Of course, the cost of a cruise holiday doesn't stop at the price of the ticket and it is very easy to eat away at your holiday budget after only a short time aboard.

If you know where to look onboard the liner, you'll soon find many opportunities to save money and pick up the freebies that others will not look for or even consider.

To start with, don't be tempted by the many cafes aboard the ship that will charge you for teas, coffees and soft drinks - even water!. Stick to the main dining areas where you know these will be free.

You can often pick up free drinks at passenger parties, so it is well worth keeping your eyes and ears open for news of any potential gatherings which happen on a daily basis. Another tip for the bargain hunting holiday maker is to cash your traveller's cheques on board rather than offshore where you will face a service charge.

Look for special offers onboard at the various services offered to passengers. For instance, if you are willing to act as a model then you might bag yourself a free haircut or facial.

The purser's desk is a fantastic place to pick up giveaways like sewing kits, postcards etc. Make a special trip here every day to see what can be picked up.

So, if you keep your wits about you there are lots of freebies and bargains to be had on even the most expensive cruise. Giveaways not only serve as reminders of that holiday of a lifetime, but the truly thrifty can also recycle many of them as gifts for friends back home!
