Toys for tots and other programs

Submitted by goodnatured on Sat, 12/08/2007 - 22:11

Hey guys seen on the news tonight that some toys are being rejected by toys for tots and other donation programs because of the recalls.

If you do these programs you may want to visit the salvation army web page and see the recall list or just google a toy recall list. If you buy the toy and donate it, they are pulling them and putting them in storage for now.

So better off to make sure it is not on the list so that your toys get where you intend them to go and not in some trailer waiting to be returned to the company for refund. So check them out before you buy for these programs or for your own family members.

I believe alot of it is the lead based paint and small part recalls.

When you are dealing with recalls and programs it can be a real pain, even though you did not purchase it, you have to go through all the crap of returning the item. Did you have a lot on the list goodnatured?

Consumer beware, these lists are produced all the time, it is good to follow them if you are buying gifts for children or loved ones.
