I was watching the space shuttle launch (is it dusty in here?) and came across this on CNN.com (Hotels said to change sheets less often)...
In a continuing effort to save money, hotel chains are changing sheets for their customers less frequently, sometimes only weekly, according to a published report Tuesday.
[...]
New guests all get new sheets, according to the report, but those with extended stays will no longer see the daily sheet changes that used to be industry standard, the paper said.
[...]
The paper said that hotels are explaining the move as an effort to be more environmentally friendly, using less hot water, detergents and bleach to clean sheets. But the hotels see savings from less laundry and reduced labor costs.
Are hotels trying to save the environment or just trying to increase profits? I say, who cares? Looks like a win-win to me.
Now...how often do you change your sheets at home?
