Thursday, June 10, 2010 7:20McDonald’s Offers Cash in Recall of Shrek Glasses,It is good to see that company like Mc Donalds is making sure that the children that would possibly infected with cadmium will bring the tumbler back.
since The company will pay customers $3 for every glass they return. The company had been selling the glasses for $1.99 with a food purchase and $2.49 without food. It announced on Friday that it was recalling millions of the glasses, which are painted with characters from the movie “Shrek Forever After.”
“It’s highly unusual to see a company that executes a recall pay any premium over the regular purchase price,” said Don Mays, senior director of product safety for Consumer Reports. He said that only 10 to 30 percent of consumers responded in a typical recall.
McDonald’s said in a statement that it had tested the glasses when they were manufactured and that they met all regulations currently in place. But the restaurant chain said that in light of the safety commission’s “evolving assessment of standards for consumer products,” it had determined “in an abundance of caution that a voluntary recall of the ‘Shrek Forever After’ glassware is appropriate.”
So if you happen to get one of this Mc Donald Shrek Glass you better bring it back to Mc Donalds..
