Everyone Needs to READ THIS!

Hey there to anyone who reads my blog - READ This article http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-thrift2-2009jan02,0,2083247.story regarding the sale and resale of childrens clothing and toys. As of Feb 10 any childs item not tested for lead MAY NOT BE SOLD. This included bows, toys, clothes, shoes, anything sold as a childrens item. Consignment shops will have to throw out all of their clothes not tested for lead on this date, this includes places like Deseret Industries, Kid to Kid etc.

Please post this this on your blog to get the word out and have everyone call their representatives. This could be disastrous, and financially difficult for already cash strapped families.
