I was in Vegas and woke up with the worst bender ever. I had been given free drinks all night while gambling. I woke up and could barely lift my head up enough to read the "Hungover? Tired?" tag on the nightstand which pointed me to JACK'S Hangover Relief in the mini-bar. It saved my life and my job. It was like having a fire extinguisher next to a burning fire! I got up and 20 minutes later I was singing in the shower and made it to my booth on time for the convention. Long live the mini-bar and thank you JACK!

They had a mini fridge with free bottles of water and on one of the beds had a list of things you could request your fridge to be stocked with, for exorbitant prices, of course. For people who valued convince over money, they could fill that out and leave it on the door. For people who wanted to buy outside stuff, there was a fridge ready. And for the hotel, well, they don't have to check contents on a daily basis. Great way of doing it. I saw this recently at the Gaylord Palms Resort in Orlando.
