Big Time! For our annual summer Vail 2 weeks with paddleboards, skateboards, beach tent in addition to regular luggage...often its a #3LuggageCart scenario
Possibly. We were looking for luggage rack to check out. I didn't know that they even have bell service to do that.
@jwalk03 Yep the peeps on this thread complaining about SUV's...must not engage in family or much recreational travel is all I'm sayin'
Cliff calls us the “Sultan’s Caravan” when we go by car. We can go four weeks by air with a roll aboard and personal item, but I make no effort whatsoever to pack frugally for a car trip.
When the cart is left abandoned somewhere the alarm in your unit starts blaring as well. Assigned parking spaces for each unit. That way when I have a 2BR LO I get two spaces and can park in the middle of the two. (With my luck the spaces wouldn't be adjacent. )
Time luggage cart usage like a video game and if you beat the clock you get reserved pool lounge chairsSolution: QR code scanning that attaches the cart to your room. Then some kind of homing beacon alarm on the luggage carts that start screeching if it isn't returned to the general lobby area within a set period of time.
I'm a problem solver
Bonus!!
Given the shaming they’re receiving in absentia, I have no doubt why. And in my view there are no reasonable excuses.
I agree with your daughter LOL. That and my ability to tell just about everything I need to know about a person by how they stack the dishwasher.My daughter says that returning a grocery cart is the ultimate test of your moral character, so there is that
Add some duct tape to cover the cameras and break out the tow straps!! I didn't see nuthin'.I agree with your daughter LOL. That and my ability to tell just about everything I need to know about a person by how they stack the dishwasher.
Seriously though, my mom taught me well I suppose, with three basic rules when it comes to this topic:
1. Put things back where you found them
2. Leave things the way you found them
3. Everything in this life has it's place
Basically, if you always put things in the same place (where they belong), there's never a mystery about where those things are when you need them. Order vs chaos type thing. It amazes me watching people endlessly misplace their phones, keys, wallets, etc. No one is perfect and we all have our weak and forgetful moments - as I age they seem to happen more frequently LOL - but everything having it's place drastically cuts down on spending lots of collective time endlessly searching for things we use almost every day of our lives - and especially for those things that we don't use often - that's why we have label makers.
I'm a Wyndham owner (looking at adding Marriott though), we just came back from Towers on the Grove in North Myrtle Beach for a 10 day vacation - which has it's own dedicated nine floor parking garage. Someone in a Dodge Challenger took the cake this trip by diagonally parking across, count em now, three parking spots. Guess he thought he was special. I drive a RAM 1500 full size truck - and I always carry heavy duty towing straps and chains in my ramboxes. I'm tempted at times like this to break out the tow straps and "help" guys like this to straighten out their parking problems (just kidding of course - welllll - sorta?).
I do often see luggage carts left in the hallways and/or by the elevators at various resorts. Bugs me given the rules listed above - but to each his own as they say.
Unless that person is like my husband. He places things where he thinks they should belong, not where or how he found them. Then the next time he puts it away, he decides that it should go back to where it should belong, except that this time it is a different place from where he previously believed it belonged. The biggest problem is that he usually empties out the dishwasher. So poor me, the cook at home, is always looking for utensils in the drawers. Sometimes, he opens up a drawer, he would say "Why did you put it here, it does not belong here?" No, dear, you placed it there and he would argue that I placed it there and not him. Now I know to never argue because I can never win.
Yes! Like some of the airports here.
I assume this is in jest but unfortunately it's not far off from some people.
Seen people key them and be the "cart demon" as well for such situations.
Saw on social media that some people are carrying zip ties and will zip tie a grocery cart to the door handle of cars that do this
Thought is was a thoughtful way to get the message across without causing any damage.
This always happens to us on check in day at our Pinestead Reef TS in Traverse City, MI. No luggage carts to be found, all up on the 2nd and 3rd floor, so I just always run an grab one and bring it down before check in and I'm good. This TS has mostly owners in their late 70"s, 80"s and 90"s Our oldest owner passed away last year at 97 and owned a boatload of units
It is the same way in the summer. There are four large SUV's or Pick-up trucks for every sedan. I wish all MVC resorts had Costco sized parking spaces. The longer trucks are are making backing out of spaces a real challenge, especially if they have a trailer hitch.
