Shop Safe: Bloggers Unite! Posted by Don Mays at 11/13/07 02:33 PM

The holiday season is almost here, and we are still hearing reports about new toy hazards almost every day. Two days ago the CPSC recalled Aqua Dots, one of the most popular toys on the market, because it has a coma-inducing toxin in it!

It is time to do something about this, which is why Consumers Union has launched the “Twelve Days of Safe Shopping” campaign.

Bloggers all over the net are already talking about it:
