Anyone using online stores for convenience services/revenue?

Stumbled on this service, which appears to be an interesting business model in itself and got me thinking about how this might work for convenience items such as toothbrushes, deodorants, or other items that are not necessarily stocked in the unit, but are often forgotten by guests coming to stay:

Anyone using services like this?

    Right so I’m not imaging doubling revenue through toothbrushes, more so that this is commonplace n hotels where the essentials are fully stocked by check-in and some destinations are pretty far from stores or (as with a few of mine) in areas where stores close early so it becomes another avenue for improving first XP. It’s certainly the case that many of the high net worth folks I know have their caretakers fill their fridge for them before they arrive, which in cases of STRs could be coordinated through turnover staff for added revenue (same as restocking supplies).
