List of items to bring to timeshare?

Sponges and dish soap

We have been timesharing for 10 plus years. If I go into a unit and it has a used sponge - I call housekeeping. I have NEVER packed a sponge or dish soap. That is why I pay MF and no matter where we vacation - I need a new sponge and dish soap. I have never had a problem in getting either one. They would much rather you keep the dishes clean - reduces their work.

I do pack laundry soap - housekeeping does not care if your clothes are clean or not! But, housekeeping normally will supply you with items that will help keep the unit clean.

I was waiting for someone to say "Viagra"...


But all kidding aside, I always take child proofing supplies (door knob covers, outlet covers, etc). I remember our first stay at a timeshare (only a year ago in May, 2006), one of our daughters, who were 3 yrs old at the time(twins), just unlocks the door and runs right out of the unit. Luckily it was an interior hallyway, rather than a parking lot or steep stairs outside the door. After that my wife sent me to the store to get doorknob covers. Now I know to bring them.

There's A Pill For Just About Everything.

I was waiting for someone to say "Viagra".

That's specially important when old folks remarry & go on their honeymoon to Viagra Falls.

I'm semi-surprised a market hasn't sprung up for fake (i.e., placebo) Viagra for women tired of the whole rigmarole to sneakily put in the pill bottle as an inactive replacement for the real deal. That is to say, sometimes the sincerest form of intimacy is some well deserved rest -- not that there's anything wrong with that.

I take the wife or I have problems when I get home.
