Soap Thieves - don't feel guilty ........

[Sprucegoose]

I take them home with me every time (I love travel-sized *anything*). Once I hit maximum levels in the bathroom I donate the excess to a local women's refuge - my workplace does a "toiletries drive" once a year to collect for them.

Damn fine idea. I cleaned a lot of travel kits / PJs out and gave it to those more deserving as well

Well since we know it is now open slather - thanks IC NKG.



One night in a Suite surely does yield a bountiful harvest!

I am quite happy to take the shampoo. Considering I have used it, the remains are only going to be thrown out anyway.

I will take the shower gel if it is a good one - like L'Occitane, Rogers & Gallet and the nice one from the Ritz Carlton in Singapore - as I use that for travel when I am not in 5* hotels.

Shower cap is taken for future use on shoes in my suitcase.

Always take toothbrushes.

Never touch the shampoo and conditioners.

Laundry and shoe bags (fabric ones) - love these for travelling. Use for shoes, cables, flight socks etc. I use one for carrying a pair of flats in my handbag at work too.

Amongst all the others, I have 10 days worth of Raffles Toiletries. Very nice. I also donate all the 'Gift with purchase' packs that I 'have to have' until I realise I'm never going to use them. Thankfully our local charity is doing their drive for these right now.

Never leave the hotel slippers behind !

They are always far better than anything offered in F and are often white, easy to see in dark cabins too.

If I like the perfume of the soap, I will put an opened one in a tissue in the case to make it smell nice; maybe even wrap a jacket around it.

Depends on the hotel and the airline. I found some Asian carriers offer better quality slippers then most hotels.
I do remember asking for slippers once on TG F intra-Asia flight and the FA brought me a pair of hotel slippers. She apologised and said TG doesn't offer slippers on short haul flights and that's why she always takes from the hotels in case pax will ask her later. This was a sweet gesture that earned her a very positive feedback later
Edit: just checked the slippers my gf wears ATM and they are from BR

Never felt the need to steal soap - have way better ones at home for $10 dollars for a 500ml bottle!
