Cabela’s Recall Furry Friend Flashlights - Beamerzzz
QUESTION: What is the risk associated with this recall? ANSWER: The risk is that the stuffed animal will pull sharp wires out of its left paw and lacerate you. Can you imagine being cut open by your most trusted friend... Oh the betrayal. Cabela’s should be ashamed of themselves for scarring the emotions of the users.
ANSWER: You should immediately stop using the flashlight and contact the manufacturer to get your money back. There is no discussion of replacement units, but I hope that Jim, Mike, and Jeff are able to replace their furry friends with equal but safe furry friends. WARNING TO JIM MASS - Unfortunately Jim probably didn’t get this far down the page and he has already set his lovable cuddly friend out in the yard and blown it away with his shotgun... Que pena (What a shame in Portuguese). I can just see the bear’s head flying up high in the air while the body explodes into a puff of fibrous lint... I guess he can’t get his refund now. |
