View Full Version : Beware of anything offered that is "free"!

We attended a travel seminar sponsored by Resorts Plus International at the Waterfront Hotel. They offered a "free" cruise for spending 90 minutes of our time listening to their sales pitch. Of course the cabins they give you are inside and on the lowest deck, so upgrading is almost a must, especially if you are handicapped. What bothers me the most is that they are charging $600 per couple for port charges. I think our last cruise for the same amount of days and ports was $130 pp. There are also many restrictions and rules, that are set by the company handling the cruise. People are sucked into going to these deals which offer freebies, but there really isn't any such thing as "a free lunch". People, beware!

And there you have it! "If it seems too good to be true, then it probably is"!

You're forgiven. It was probable just a senior moment.
