7 Million Candles Recalled Over Fire Hazard

This is a good reason why you should switch to Scentsy! 

COLUMBUS, Ohio — A massive recall involving seven million candles tops this week's Recall Roundup, Consumer 10's Kurt Ludlow reported on Friday.  The candles were part of more than 600,000 tea light sets sold at Target, TJMaxx, Marshall's and Homegoods stores.  The sets were sold over the past two years under the brand names Chesapeake Bay Candle and Modern Light.  The candles have a clear, plastic cup that can melt or ignite, posing a fire and burn hazard.  There has been one report of a plastic cup melting while in use.  Nobody has been injured.
