People are sharing their very over-the-top hotel hack to save money on holiday – but not everyone is sold | The Sun

THE humble hotel room fridge has been causing a stir among holidaymakers.

While most guests know to avoid expensive mini-bar prices these days, hotel fridges come in handy with holidaymakers looking to save money by storing supermarket food and drink.



In recent years, "relaxing" and "satisfying" videos have emerged on social media platforms of holidaymakers stocking their hotel fridges.

Earlier this year, TikTok user scyesthelimit posted a two-minute video unloading her haul into the appliance.

In the footage, which has been sped up, she started by cleaning the fridge with several wet wipes.

Then, she placed items like strawberries, yoghurts, bottles of water,muffins, eggs, and bread into the fridge.
