i would have used them as snack credits to take home
1 TS Credit = 3 Snacks
10 TS Credits = 30 Snacks
It sounds like it was her own fault for leaving credits "on the table" so to speak - even though they were "free"
She was not out anything, even if she did not know to replace teh credits with snacks. She was refunded in kind, so a bonus 2 credits per person, rather than the cash she wanted.
Things happen. A few years ago I took a "bonus" trip with my DDIL and my friend to see the last Osbourne Lights. We stayed at CSR. My DDIL and I saved our last CS credit for a lunch before the flight at Pepper Market. Well, the entire resort was rented out to a business. No one was told. When that happens, guests cannot use the restaurnats, they are taken, so to speak. Are you kidding me????? We return to the resort and we cannot eat? Now what? I spoke to the manager because I felt that some sort of warning should have been provided. WE just wanted a means to get food. She gave us each a stipend for lunch at the airport, and we traded our CS credits for snacks, which my DS was going to benefit from once DDIL got home. TO be honest, I woudl have preferred the option to get that bacon burger at pepper market and enjoy it out by the pool, however that was not on the table.
The thing is we all have something that we want, but if it is not what the business feels is a either equitable, or is impossible, they give something back. In teh case of your friend, I think she as compensated by having her meal replaced with hot fresh food. (My hungry family would have said "SCORE!" If they got a bonus pork belly!) Safety concerns always trump ann uninterrupted meal.
