Not stealing, but this was my haul from my last stay at the Wynn.
Those soaps and shampoos are huge and very high quality. I’m still using them here at home.

Nice, being an economy hotel, we did not automatically have toothpaste, toothbrushes or razors in the rooms. We had them behind the desk (and a few other things) if you came and asked. Obviously, we didn't expect to see those things again and could not be reused anyway.
The main reason we didn't put them in the rooms is because we knew they would automatically almost always be taken, but probably not actually used at the hotel.

Body lotion? What guy would steal that? I can honestly say I have never used any lotion on anything(other than testing it on my hands once or twice) unless it was sunscreen, medicated or something like Noxzema for sun burns or bag balm for injuries.Quote: ams288Not stealing, but this was my haul from my last stay at the Wynn.

What pisses me off is when the last guest left the alarm set for 3:30 AM or close to it. I suspect it is deliberate.
It's far worse when someone sets the alarm for 3:30 and no one stays in there the next night. I've stayed in the adjacent room while the alarm next door goes off, it's maddening.

Quote: Mission146The other hotel had a TV stolen once and the guest actually called and offered to sell it back to them. They were, in fact, stupid enough to actually come back with it to sell it and found themselves arrested, so that was a funny day.
Most criminals are morons. My wife had her purse stolen from a bar/restaurant. The theif just grabbed it off the bar and ran out the door. We got a license plate number so the police traced the person down. The thief told the police he would pay my wife $300 if she wouldn't press charges. The deal was made and the thief showed up at the police station to give the $300. He was arrested on the spot. He ended up doing 9 months because of course he already had a record.

leave the porn slapper cards in between the pages. It's like an unexpected bonus.
Quasimodo? Does that name ring a bell?

I used to take toiletries from pretty much every hotel I was in, but only because I work at an Army installation and there was an effort to collect and send them to troops overseas. Apparently, not only is that still "a thing," but at least two organizations promote it (Operation Shoebox, and Operation Care & Comfort).

My hotel last night had an awesome passive aggressive sign about this. Unfortunately my phone was dead so no pic. But in part...
