SOoooooo!!! What else is cooking?

Well..this is what was cooking this evening. DD set up some halloween display lighting etc., and used this Dollar Store Extention Cord....made in some other place other than U S A.

I could say, where it was made, was a place that starts with a © and ends in a (A) ...
I smelled it, and I didn't think it was anything that would be cooking.

Yikes, that is scary. I just bought a little cheapo scented warmer yesterday, and now I'm going to have to go look at the label.

I'd also take that back to the Dollar Store and complain to them. Someone could get killed by that cord.

The cord is two years old, and Tina said she doesn't remember which one of the 10 stores she got it at. LOL
