They were supposed to be cut off by the consumer.
It was to prevent the sale of used mattresses.
Which was spreading disease and vermin back then.
It didn't say that on the labels back then.
@TheoryNumber3 It should have just said. "Cut off this tag when you buy it. "
No one wants a typhoid bed.
Most things in my house (pillows, blankets etc.) still have them on! The washing instructions are usually on the back or attached. That and I have had the stiches come out of the item when I tried to pull the damn tag off. Easier just to let them on.
Never had them in Australia that I can recall.
I must have live a deprived childhood, As I did own several pairs of good scissors.
No one notice the irony of the label?? made by blanket yaba yaba Canada
Made in China
I am confused is Canada a Chinese province??
Yes.
Almost everything's made in China !
We are constantly losing or ruining pillows at work, so there's a steady supply of new ones rotating into the stock. Every time I clean one, I tear the labels off and say this line. I'm sure my coworkers are over it, but every once in a while a patient gets a good chuckle out of it.
I also can't resist when I see a used urinal near a bedside saying, "Hey, do you know who's bottle of warm lemonade this is? It's not mine, must be urine."
Nope! Always cut them off, and do to this day.
GASP! I'm calling the cops, you felon!
@TheoryNumber3 It's not illegal. They just want you to think it is.
@KKGator You mean the cops never came to your house for a mattress tag check?
@TheoryNumber3 Those were murder.
@TheoryNumber3
I've been evading the tag law for years due to tag violations. Catch me if you can! Bwahahaha!
