[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 81499, member: 1991"] We do the same thing with our kids. We've never been asked to pay for it to be removed though. I'd like to see them try - husband would have them on toast. But then again, it WAS husband who asked in the first place, each time. We're in Canberra at the moment, although staying with easy child this time. When we were last here just over a year ago, we were staying in a motel room right in the centre of the city - a studio apartment with tiny kitchen and bar fridge to supply all our needs for the week. When we looked in the bar fridge, there was no room for any of our supplies, with all their stuff. Immediately on check-in, we asked for it to be emptied. We did have to watch, though - on check-out they tried to charge us for the entire contents, saying we had eaten/drunk it all, until we explained the situation. So it helps to get the record of your room endorses with something to indicate you did NOT consume the contents. And then, of course, we go out and buy our own goodies from a nearby supermarket, at a fraction of the price! We buy the stuff WE want and will permit. Fresh fruit (especially special treat fruit such as strawberries, mango, watermelon) and salad vegetables, so we can make our own sandwiches, toast and light meals instead of paying a fortune for maybe not-so-fresh ingredients. And $75 to remove gum - that's ridiculous! They have ice cubes in that bar fridge don't they? The cleaning staff just have to put ice on the gum until it chills it and the gum will crack off the carpet. Ice does not cost $75! Marg [/QUOTE]
