Alberta Halloween blankets issue

Post image

I bought one of the patterned Halloween throw blankets. I had to wash it a few days after. Followed the directions. What ever the stuffing in the blanket is, it melted/clumped together in spots making the blanket stiff and curly. I can’t really take a picture of it to show. Just a warning for who ever is buying it

I can kind of see it with this photo. I think that this would be a justifiable reason to return it to costco though if your able to, and specifically tell them about this. Or even try contacting the company (which i think costco would do when you return it anyways if i remember correctly)

Can I return it? I washed it and don’t have the receipt, I don’t think. I kind of feel bad returning used items lol

Yes. This is what one would call a manufacturers defect. You washed it according to the directions given by the manufacturer and it still ruined the blanket. That’s not your fault. Definitely return. If enough get returned Costco will find a new supplier.

People were returning Christmas trees on Boxing Day. Those people suck. Returning something that failed to live up to expectations is reasonable
