Name:

I am a romance writer trying to get noticed in the market. I write inspirational and sweet historic romance. I love Regency England and most of my stories are set during that time period, 1800 to 1820.

The room



Our room has a mini bar and a selection of snacks available to purchase. Isn’t that a great opportunity? Is the hotel so wonderful to provide such convenience for its guests?

Well.. such convenience comes with cost. The prices of the items are enough to take away any hunger pangs I may have been having.

A bottle of Miller Lite costs $6.50. One bottle, not a six-pack.

A bottle of Evian water costs. $4.00. A bottle of Coke or Pepsi is also $4.

Those cute little bottles of liquor are $8.

The can of almonds will set you back $9, the Pringles are $5.

The rest of the items: Snickers, M&Ms, Ghirardelli Chocolate, Reeses, Rice Crispys and Famous Amos cookies are all $4 each.

And get this, don’t even touch them. They are sitting on electronic sensors that will automatically charge your room when an item is removed. Any accidental movement may cause an unintentional charge.

And to add insult to injury, the items are subject to 8.5% sales tax and a 20% restocking fee.

Thank goodness coffee is free otherwise I would be in big trouble.
