I have a half a bottle of one the recalled products in my medicine cabinette, which means the other half didn’t kill my grandson. I don’t mean to be difficult, but their website doesn’t say take it back to the place where you purchased it for a “full refund”. Just wondering, ya know?

[IllumiNaughtyByNature]

Nice work Semper911. I just called with our lot # and we were fine.

From what they say it does not seem to be a major threat, but they did a recall anyway. I do not know if they are offering refunds.

I took a product back and they gave me the FULL purchase price back. Go for it. You make money with it, why not? ;^)

[Yaelle]

Mom ping.

[Gabz]

Metmom, -— I lost all my ping lists in a hard drive melt down, but I will be more than happy to recreate the MOM list if others are still interested.

I do my best to avoid purchasing ANY products made by this company, so I need not worry.

[Diana in Wisconsin]

Just to be sure - BUMP!

[GOPJ]

Thanks for the ping.
