If people were honest we wouldn't need hotel room closed loop hangers

Worked in a place where the security guard got sacked for stealing tea bags out of the office canteen.

Gamekeeper turned poacher

Hangers are crap.

Yep, it's Saturday again.

Hate them hangers.
You bring your hanger to your article of clothing, you don't bring the article of clothing to the hanger ffs.
I don't use them in protest.

Went to America 2 years ago with Mr M, it was a special treat for my 40th, but not really near the date. We toured around, he's well used to that (musician), so he had told all the hotels it was my birthday the night we were staying, so we got Strawberries dipped in chocolate and Champaign, various treats, upgrades to rooms with jaccuzzis etc... that was so great.

I never steal from hotels, but I do take all the toiletries.
Himself always leaves change on the table for the maids, in every well kept hotel, so I do it too now.

Still stealing and some hotels charge for that.

Myself and herself were in The Dawson last year - lovely hotel but bloody noisy thanks to the nite club below our window. Anyway, on the second day, the maids came to service the room eventually (7PM). Herself didn't want them to come in so I made the excuses at the door. All we needed was more coffee but the maid gave me a big handful of toiletries saying "Madam will like...take, take". Was never so happy to leave a tip in a hotel room

What's even better is when you come across the cleaning trolley in the hallway and you can stock up on your favourites

Unfortunately some people tell themselves they have a right to things.
"I paid dearly for this hotel room, of course I can take some things with me"

It is petty theft, and as can seen above opportunity makes the thief.
I do it too.

Don't know why anyone would want to steal hangers, you can get them free and anyway...I store my clothes on the floor.

I would't stay in ones that do. :rolleyes:

I would take stuff you are allowed use free like shower caps and shampoos and stuff. I also use the heck out of the bath. I would never take a face cloth or anything. I would take the free stuff but I wouldn't abuse it i am not going to take the piss.

I take ALL the toiletries and any edibles. That's all. I don't take slippers or anything like that.

I take everything that will fit in my bag. Tried robbing the duvet in one of the fancy hotels I stayed in. It didn't work out.

Next time I'll be prepared.

Of course he could own a closed loop hanger factory or is simply trying to keep the closed loop hanger workers in a job

In which case would he not be better off stealing them to encourage the production of more closed loop hangers

I love when this happens. Stayed in a hotel a few years ago for a few nights. After the first night while they were cleaning the rooms and putting tea milk sugar etc back into the rooms I came across this trolley. Asked the nice man pushing it could I have an extra towel, milk and tea bags. He came to my room about 20 mins later with the stuff I had asked for. (my room had already been cleaned). Gave him a tip for his assistance. Also left a note for him at reception when I was checking out to thank him.

go to penneys or whatever similar store if you need hangers they gonna throw them at you,now back to the topic-always pack some extra towels and what not after staying in 5* hotel before leaving

I once spent five nights a week for six months in Glasgow whilst on a course.

One of the people studying with me was your typical chancer, always trying to wrangle a better deal and who had no shame about being cheap.

Every day he would ask the hotel reception staff for new toiletries and tea/coffee/buscuits for his room. Some days he'd ask more than once and if he seen the cleaning trolley unattended he'd grab as many bottles and sachets as he could.

At the end of every week he would have a sports holdall filled with with little bottles of shampoo, biscuits and Nescafe sachets.

He bagged them up and sold them on Ebay and somewhat surprisingly people actually bought them.

If people were honest we wouldn't need hotel room closed loop hangers
