SSR-what's provided question

[pennst8r]

Hi!

I'm sorry if you've all answered this in the past, but I searched and came up with nada.

This Friday will be our first trip home, and altho I know there will be dish/dishwasher soap, laundry detergent, etc....could someone tell me how much? Do you get enough for just one load? Can I get/buy more while I'm there?

Thanks so much in advance!

They provide 1 small bottle of dish soap, 1 powder pack of dishwasher detergent, 1 box of single load Tide, and in the bathroom....shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, facial soap and bath soap. You will also get a starter pack for coffee. They will be replenished on Trash & Towel day (Day 4). You can purchase more at the store at Artist Pallette, I believe, or you can request more from Mousekeeping for a fee. The price list for various items is available on the Member Site.

Personally, I bring extra liquid laundry detergent and our own brand of coffee. They don't provide fabric softener to my recollection.

Have a great trip!

Thanks!

I have the important things like coffee packed already. I just have to find some small bottles of detergent/softener and dishwasher soap.

I usually buy small bottles at the dollar store, on another thread I saw today they said they had little bottles of tide at Target that did 4 loads. Have fun.

I was headed to Target for a few other things tomorrow--I wouldn't have thought to look there for small travel bottles, tho! I have a dollar store nearby too. Now that I know what I need to find, I can finish packing.



Thanks so much!

I recall having more than a one-time use of dishwasher powder and dish soap at SSR last month. And there were four Tide boxes in the laundry area.

That would be nice! But I would never get that room! (me!)
I will get the room where they forgot to put any!

We only plan on eating breakfast and bedtime snacks, but I'll need enough to run it each day. We just got new suitcases, so I'll have plenty of space to pack some.

That was very unusual. Usually you will get one single use box of Tide and either a small box of Cascade (good for a few cycles) or a single pouch of Cascade. And a small bottle of Palmolive.

We always pack ours. I put powered laundry detergent in snack-size ziplock bags. Oxi instead of bleach (because it's powdered). The little bags go into a larger ziplock bag. It's nice to have them all measured out and not have to pay the resort price for them.

FYI - In our Target, the small bottles are not located in the laundry detergent aisle, but in the trial size aisle near the pharmacy. They are only $1 too!

good info to know as i am about to purchase ssr on my next visit.

I was able to buy a trial size bottle of All detergent that does 2 loads of wash at Walmart. They were in the section that has shampoo and toothpaste. They also had a set of 3 tides that were little envelopes with enough soap for washing something in a sink.

We are thinking of picking up a regular sized bottle at the local supermarket once we get there and then leave whatever we don't use. I think that might just be the most cost effective way.... (we are planning to hit the supermarket anyway)

I did find a 4 wash bottle of Tide at Target--in with the travel items there, too.
