Buy Safe Eat Well

Shop Safe: Bloggers Unite!

On the eve of the biggest shopping day of the year, bloggers are talking up our “12 Days of Safe Shopping”!

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.
