I’ve had people wondering what they can spend on board credit on, sometimes with large sums of money you can cover your bill and still have money left.
Well, here is an idea: retail therapy.
Who doesn’t like to do a bit of shopping on holiday especially if you find yourself passing some lovely shops? I know I would certainly be tempted.
I always find the shopping areas on cruise ships lovely and irresistible with some interesting unusual items. I’m not talking about souvenirs but branded clothing and jewellery.
The new Britannia has recently confirmed the the brands that will be present on board. If you like me love to indulge in a bit of retail therapy, I’m sure you will appreciate the exciting new additions to the shopping line-up.
