We've all been there - enjoying our stay in a hotel with those irresistibly comfortable beds and top-notch facilities. The one thing we can't resist but also can't touch is that tempting minibar. We have all felt that magnetic pull, the urge to dive into the snacks and drinks, even though we know it will leave our wallets weeping. While some choose to exercise willpower and simply avoid the minibar, there are others who employ a clever little trick - indulging first and then discreetly restocking the items from a local store. It's like a secret savings scheme right there in your hotel room, and it can save you a pretty penny.
Influencer Naved Akhtar, who goes by the moniker Freddy Birdy, recently shared a satirical note on hotel minibars. In the note, he wrote, "One of my pet peeves with hotels is the minibar. Hotels don't charge you per swim. Or every time someone fake smiles and says "I hope everything is okay sir?" Hotels don't charge you for the apple you pluck from a bowl near the receptionist. So why do they charge you for the minibar?" He went on to say that a tiny thimble of champagne is so expensive that it might just cost you "the price of a divorce in America". Further sharing her feelings about the foods available at the minibar and its extreme cost, Freddy Birdy added, that he would prefer having a range of "local nibbles and drinks" in his hotel room instead, which would come for free.
In his note, he also urged for "free chocolate bonbons and cans of Pina Colada" in the minibar, instead of those fancy toiletries and bathrobes, which "you never feel like using."

The post instantly grabbed all the attention, with a person stating in the comments section, "I ate chocolates and chips, then couldn't sleep all night thinking I have to live without kidneys (it was a seven-star hotel and I was on a work trip). The next day I went to a local shop, bought the same chocolate and chips, and put it back. I am still alive with two kidneys."
