Therefore, Monday - Friday is when the "on the go" bags are available. =)
Of course we like that, we save money. heh.
Also, being an Elite member has NOTHING to do with if you get a "on the go" bag.
Infact, if you eat in the breakfast area, you really shouldn't grab a bag, you were just at the place where there is breakfast and you can obviously collect what you want for yourself. It takes time to keep those bags up to par since we're only allowed to have 6 out there. People check in and check out. It gets crazy. Thats also being selfish for those who don't have time to sit down and eat ALL the hot breakfast.
I never stop it, though cause I'm nice.
One of the reasons I enjoy the Hampton is because I am NOT a big breakfast eater....I rarely eat anything hot (never, actually). But most Hamptons have that delicious fresh fruit (it looks like it is freshly cut with all that wonderful pineapple, etc., but I recently found out it came in bags--but it is delicious!). Anyway, I like to grab a cup of fresh fruit (never sit down to eat it there either) and then grab a "to go" bag because I can at least count on a Kellogg's 90 Calorie bar (I wouldn't exactly call it an energy bar) and a small bottle of water. So, with the to go bag, I have fruit, water and a granola bar! And the mints are nice too!
