Wes,

I know exactly what you are talking about. When I was traveling all over the country even way back then some of the better hotels would not have any soap in the room. I would call the desk and they would send some right up with the explanation that the maid must have just forgotten to put any in the room when she cleaned. I always stayed at the best hotels in whichever city I was in at the time, so they were pretty good about trying to accommodate a person staying there. I also had to go way back in the mountains once to a small town that they had stuck a computer in and they had one motel and it didn't even have phones. The water was so bad I went to a store and bought bottled water to drink. The only time I ever did that.

Ron

When I was working, I always stole the little soap bars and shampoo bottles. After I retired, I put them all together and had five shoe boxes, full to the top.

I gave 4 away as "funny" Xmas gifts and I'm slowly working on the last shoe box.

Gee Warren,

Didn't you also take the little bottles of Scotch from the rooms bars also? Since I don't drink I used to take them and give them to people in other rooms in exchange for their goodie baskets.

Soap was free, booze cost $$. What do you think?

The small curtest bottles were free and came with the rooms where I stayed. I would not have had them if they cost. Also then goodie baskets of fruit and nuts were free. Saved on lunch which wasn't free.
