Charged for a newspaper?

I am currently staying at a Marriot Suites for 2 nights. I checked my folio on the t.v. to be sure they processed my Bonus Bucks- and they did (wow!) and correctly (last time they added $100 to my bill instead of subtracting and the time b/f they lost it). Looking at my folio I noticed a charge for 1.50 for "newspaper". I woke up this morning and they had three papers at my front door- USA Today, WSJ, and the local paper. I never asked for anything. In my profile it says WSJ but I almost never get it. But why would they give me three papers- how much am I going to read and then charge me without asking me? It's not a big deal and I'm not going to say anything but it just doesn't seem right for them to unilaterally do something for me and charge me for it. Anyone else have this happen to them? What did you do? I am curious what's gonna be tomorrow, seeing as how it's Saturday- wonder if I'll get another three papers.
