Well I can see that it is duel outlet. And one has a desk lamp plugged into it. So why not unplug that one and use the outlet.

Whenever I worked the Sydney flights, we got to the hotel before anything was open, so if I was hungry, or more often, thirsty and dehydrated, I would snack off the mini bar and guzzle the $10 bottles of water before crashing for a couple of hours sleep. Then when I was up and about later that afternoon, I’d hit a grocery store and buy and replace the items I had consumed. Guess they caught on to flight crew hijinks.

The “duct tape” on the ice bucket is a disposable plastic liner.

Not just LV. I reserved a room in Maryland at a discount at one of the chain “suites” motels through Hotels .com or something. Upon entering, found television stand pulled out slightly from the wall and TV unplugged, so I plugged it in , may not even have watched anything. When I got my credit card statement, I found I had been charged full price for the room.

An “organized crime” group runs most cities. It just isn’t the old mafia. The new “bosses” are various politicians and their ilk.

Just think. Gasoline used to cost 19 cents per gallon!
Have you stopped driving your vehicles?

Las Vegas is a cruel joke at this time. Anyone going there is going to be fleeced from A-Z.
When the mob ran it, they at least let you have fun. Rooms and food were cheap, and so was the entertainment. Now, they charge you for literally everything.

The bonus bets cost more and pay less. Used to be $1. Now its $5.

No it is a total rip off that most people won’t even know about. Who really expects to be charged for touching something sitting out on the counter.
In most hotels, those are the freebies for guests, not sucker traps.

The mob was less crooked and less greedy than the people that run them now.

It wasn’t the minibar but the tray sitting out with a sensor on it. Who really knows about these things? They don’t exist in most hotels.
