So I am only 21 and I am going on my first cruise with a bunch of college friends. And of course we are poor college students so I was wondering, on average, what the cost of alcohol is for beers and mixed drinks. Also how much money would you recommend we take. We will be there for 5 days!

Beer costs about $4 and up.....mixed drinks around $6 or $7 and up. I haven't sailed since last September, so the prices may have gone up some.

Not sure what to tell you about how much money you should take.....there are quite a few things to spend considerable money on....gratuities at $10 per day, shore excursions that can be around $40 and up, bar bills which depend on how much you drink, shops on board......

A tip for all college students traveling together. When you check in, make certain that each individuals sea pass account is tied to his/her own credit card. Do not put everyone in the stateroom tied to one card. This will eliminate any big surprises come disembarkation day.
