Silicon Valley,

Very few hotels recycle. No one needs shampoo or other stuff in little bottles (especially when you can’t get the product out anyway).

If there are 500 rooms in one hotel and 300 hotels in one large-ish city and we have 365 days a year, that’s nearly 55 million bottles. Holy crap. That’s just for one bottle.

Now add conditioner and/or lotion and add the total number of real hotels there are giving these out and it’s obscene. And for what!? No. Real. Value. Enough is enough. I can’t believe this even has to be a discussion.

Hey, I have an idea! How about we ban all packaging altogether. Can you imagine? Each hotel could have a tanker truck of shampoo sitting in the parking lot and you just walk your butt down there at 6 am, get a little dollop in your hand and run back to your room. You could get some toothpaste out of a 55 gallon drum while you’re at it. Or how about going to the drug store and having them just hand you a condom with no wrapper. And who needs all of those stupid food packages too? We could have a farmer stop by our house so we can suck on a cows tit for our morning breakfast. Wouldn’t that be great? Puulleeeeez!

I think this is a great idea. Maybe set something up similar to public bathrooms that have the hand pumps near the sinks that they keep full. Most people bring their own supplies because they have a preference for what they use. I know I do.

Agreed!   With FatDaddy of course.  His idea is actually a solution and not just a statement of a problem. 

Or just buy these instead

Problem solved.

Nevermind, problem unsolved. 

I don't want to know what kind of vulgar things people would do to a tube full of white cream in the shower.  Individual packaging is the best way to make sure that sanitation requirements and expectations are met. 

I'm back with FatDaddy's viewpoint.

Mace The Ace has a valid suggestion as on amazon. as he said, there can be misuse by some people, but most of people are 'learned' and won't  spoil whole chambers. over all there is a gain. Or  they can put small sized dispensers, like ones placed in wash-rooms; and give contract to refill them.

I like america’s best eyeglasses, a friend told me to go firmoo be able to find fashion glasses, and it is cheap prescription eyeglasses. Yesterday I went to visit that particular site, where there are many discount eyeglass frames, and when I click on plastic eyeglasses, I am so surprised, because it also provides an on line progressive eye glasses, I think I’ll be on this site to buy $10 prescription glasses.
