Cabbie, Take Me Home

Not that you’d ever have a little too much to drink while traveling, but should that happen, the bar that used these cocktail napkins might provide you a leg up in getting back to your hotel.
At the beginning of the evening you can grab one, fill out the box labeled “Please take me home to” with your hotel address, and feel comfortable that you can navigate your way.
A little riskier is filling out where to look for your money: “my bag, my trousers, my bra, my boxer shorts” among others.
It’s all in good fun (and you can order your own from Spoon Sisters for $3.95/package), but it does drive home a larger point — most people have no problem remembering their home address, but a hotel address may prove to be a little more complicated to remember.
If you’re heading out for an evening out on the town, pick up a business card from the front desk or your hotel concierge and put it somewhere easy to find. That way you’ll know where you need to wind up when the evening is over.

This is a cute idea and you make a good point about not being able to remember your hotel info if you have had a few drinks. It would be even harder if you were in a country where English wasn’t spoken!
Thanks for stopping by, Shane.
The napkins are a bit silly aren’t they? That’s probably why they caught my eye! But the reminder is a good one.
