Let us recall the good ol' days, when hotel towels were tastefully branded and of course got swiped (marketing marketing marketing!). The modern counterpart is a passive-aggressive notice on the wall that says that if you care to swipe a towel they will gleefully add it to your credit card bill. No fun, no cheer, no margin, no marketing.

Virgin used to print a message on the bottom of their tableware that said "Pinched from Virgin Atlantic".
