Lou... 3,118 Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 Guests staying at the deluxe resorts will no longer find a copy of USA Today outside their door in the morning.Why you may ask? As a highly trained and informed professional WDW CM, if you were to ask me, I would respond as follows."We have decided to discontinue guest room newspaper delivery due to our commitment to the environment and in response to guest demand. You may pick up complimentary newspapers before 1 p.m. near the elevators or other designated areas within the resort Monday through Friday." Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Auntie 17 Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 <P> Guests staying at the deluxe resorts will no longer find a copy of USA Today outside their door in the morning. Why you may ask? As a highly trained and informed professional WDW CM, if you were to ask me, I would respond as follows. &quot;We have decided to discontinue guest room newspaper delivery due to our commitment to the environment and in response to guest demand. You may pick up complimentary newspapers before 1 p.m. near the elevators or other designated areas within the resort Monday through Friday.&quot; So it's still complimentary..just not delivered to your door?...Jeeze for the Deluxe room rates they ought to bring it with free pot of coffee and a croissant.

mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 I actually don't blame them. At most of the hotels I stay at for work, I get a free USA Today at my door every morning, and it goes in the trash or gets left in the room. I just don't read papers. I definitely don't read one on vacation Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ftwildernessguy 778 Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 I used to enjoy going over to the WL early and stealing, I mean borrowing, the USA todays for toilet paper. Now what am I going to do? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Now what am I going to do?With the the newspaper business going down the tubes, my invention is to print the news on rolls of toilet paper. That way you have a product that people will always need. It would save trees and and it wouldn't add to the dumps, no pun intended.If anyone steals that idea, I want a percentage of the profits. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BRDof3...Rob 40 Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 Think of it as a new insult you can use. Instead of syaing "kiss my ass" you can say "read my ass."Just don't use the color comics section. That would be gouche. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
alexwyattmommy 181 Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 I used to enjoy going over to the WL early and stealing, I mean borrowing, the USA todays for toilet paper. Now what am I going to do?It will much easier to "borrow" the newpapers now. You just need to go to an elevator, pick up how many you will need for your stay, and tah dah! You are golden. Or is that black and white and red all over? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
