NYT Strands today (game #840) - the answers
The answers to today's Strands, game #840, are…
- SAFE
- INTERNET
- FRIDGE
- BREAKFAST
- LAUNDRY
- SPANGRAM: HOTELAMENITIES
- My rating: Easy
- My score: Perfect
“That’s included!” That must mean batteries, surely? After all, not having batteries included in something you’ve just purchased is really annoying and a consumer crisis that needs highlighting.
Instead, after getting SAFE and INTERNET, I decided it was things (or HOTEL AMENITIES, as the spangram puts it) included in your hotel bill — or more often not included in your hotel bill unless you’d like to pay extra.
The most terrifying “free thing” in a hotel room is, of course, the mini bar — an amenity that can lead to financial ruin and that is definitely never “included”.
