Villa "extra" supply charges?

[kenny]

Going down in 29 days.

I recently asked the question about if there are extra garbage bags in the villa's and got several responses. thanks

I was talking to a friend of mine who also owns DVC and was just there in August. He claims that there is an extra charge for the following:
-towels
-garbage bags
-toilet paper
-paper towels

While I can see the charge for paper towels, do we get charged for the other items? Trying to figure out if I need to order TP and trash bags from the grocery store.

Thanks

I've only order an extra towel set for my stays. Truthfully whenever I needed extra TP & facial tissues, I simply asked a mousekeeper when I saw them in the hallways and they were more than happy to supply them. I've never called mousekeeping for those specific items.
There are usually extra garbage bags in the bottom of the can and I always seem to have tons of bags from goodies I've purchased during the week.
Sorry I'm probably mad things as clear as mud.

You could only be charged for extra towels if you want a fresh supply before your towel and trash day.

Cloth towels...yes, you are supposed to be charged $6 per towel pack, but you get free fresh towels every 4 days of your stay through Trash & Towel or Full Housekeeping services (depending upon the lenth of your stay.)

There is no extra charge for trash bags, paper towels or toilet paper, there are usually plenty of these items in the rooms, but if you run out call housekeeping and they will bring some to you.
