OK, I admit that I no longer save those ridiculously large blue rectangles of "inflight offerings." But I make it a point of pride to have a closet so full of J amenity kits that, at one point, they were causing a landslide off the shelving when I didn't fold my sweaters up "just so." The kids use them as posh building blocks, and I haven't bought toothepaste since. . .um. . .well, we have a lot of little toothepastes.
I'll admit to having taken unopened BF amenity kits from the cabin upon arrival at a destination. Just last week, I walked through immigration with two kits in my hands; that was in addition to the two I had in my suitcase.

I can't help it when I see a BF seatmate abandon one unopened. You should have seen me at the IAH baggage claim putting the toothpaste tubes and hand lotions from all four amenity kits into my plastic baggy before reclearing security. I have so many kits now that I think I can cut back to one per segment.
I really need to get a life.
