bigbeergut Posted February 27, 2019 #1 Share Posted February 27, 2019 We were on the Silhouette last week and I had some intestinal issue on the morning before we left the ship. As I was sitting in the bathroom in the morning before we left I saw that we only had a small remnant of a roll of toilet paper in the bathroom and then I looked around to discover that the room steward had removed the spare roll of toilet paper. I was lucky that my wife always packs some extra toilet paper when we travel. As we were leaving I saw a large plastic bag in the hallway filled with rolls of toilet paper. It's amazing to me that they take toilet paper out of the room on the last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix_dream Posted February 27, 2019 #2 Share Posted February 27, 2019 I have never experienced this before on any of my 48 Celebrity cruises - at least not that I noticed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davekathy Posted February 27, 2019 #4 Share Posted February 27, 2019 I never seen this. Maybe I'm the first one to use the TP before it's gone and not replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fogfog Posted February 27, 2019 #6 Share Posted February 27, 2019 We have noticed this...that whatever was left the night before is all there is... Not sure why they do this... Just seems like any toiletries/New TP etc may be cleared out... no clue... nothing we'd want to take home. Perhaps they found that people do take it... idk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omarchs Posted February 27, 2019 #7 Share Posted February 27, 2019 We noticed on the Edge in December that we never had a spare roll in the bathroom and had to ask for another roll multiple times. Maybe they were afraid of us stashing rolls away before the last night 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that happens again you always have the Kleenex and dish cloths you can use lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkbarrym Posted February 27, 2019 #9 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Trying to understand why anyone would even want to take the toilet paper. Memento?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Algebralovr Posted February 27, 2019 #10 Share Posted February 27, 2019 (edited) I have not experienced this ever. In fact, I finished off a box of facial tissue the last afternoon of the cruise and opened the spare that was in the bathroom. After dinner, the spare had been replaced. This was on the 10Feb sailing of Silhouette. Edited February 27, 2019 by Algebralovr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At that point using the wash clothes and towels would sadly be your only option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure some people might steal anything on a ship, in a hotel, in a store, on a plane, etc. That statement to me does NOT rise to the level that people in general or lots of people steal toilet paper or anything else. A little sensational IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dateacher Posted February 27, 2019 #15 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Maybe they remove what's there so they can put a new roll in when they change over the cabin. This way they know each cabin starts with a new roll. We have never had a shortage of toilet paper on the Summit, Reflection or Silhouette. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trk_koa Posted February 27, 2019 #19 Share Posted February 27, 2019 On Equinox, November 2016, we were waiting in a lounge to disembark and spotted an elderly couple carrying the X tote bag filled with rolls of the TP. Couldn’t believe it. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldubs Posted February 27, 2019 #20 Share Posted February 27, 2019 I've never noticed this with TP. I have witnessed folks stuffing their pockets with condiments from the Windjammer. Literally taking every packet or small jar of marmalade and leaving nothing. People even proudly post on CC about taking stuff that does not belong to them. So, yes I guess it probably does happen and that mentality is just kind of sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4liberty Posted February 27, 2019 #21 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Why anyone who could afford a cruise would steal THAT toilet paper is beyond me. It’s awful! I’m often tempted to bring my own, but I know it would clog the system, so I resist. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the people who steal the toilet paper find it better than using the leaves at home.... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched a programme on tv a while ago about hotels and one of the hotel managers stated that some guests regularly steal the light bulbs out of the room and bathroom before checking out. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
