    Last 3 showers I've had with TA have had the soap dispensers removed from the wall -- is this a trend or just a coincidence?

    I'm cheap -- aside from buying $13 showers...

    Dude a bottle of Dial is $3-4 and lasts a while. The "soap" is barely soap. Mostly water, that's how much it's been diluted. Plus do you really think they actually clean the dispensers?? Lol.

    That's just gross DY. Never use the "pump" soap in the shower, never use their towels except to walk on, and always use shower shoes. Think about some of those SOBs you've seen at a truck stop with their nasty skin diseases the next time your wiping your face with that orange towel.

    I have my own towels, soap, shampoo, etc. My shower bag is full of things to help me be less of a chud than normal. Plus my shoes go into a plastic bag, because shower floors are nasty.

    Exactly. I've forgotten my towel and not realized it until in the shower before. I dried off with my shirt.

    Those towels, well, think of a hooker. Now use your imagination.
