Some prescriptions - although not all - are fairly low value and aren't worth the shipping costs to return. The hotel could spend a lot of time and effort where the guest finds little benefit. (I left some stuff behind around Thanksgiving and was happy when the hotel returned my call and promptly forwarded the items by FedEx - charges appearing on an amended folio.)

Likewise, a property in Prague offered to forward my $10 paperback book via $90 in DHL charges. No, thanks - really.
