Price/Costco is recalling approximately 17,000 reindeer Christmas stockings (item numbers 74503 for Costco and 79750 for Price Club) that were originally sold between September and December 1993. During testing, the Consumer Product Safety Commission found that small gold-colored beads attached to the reindeer's antlers can pull off, creating a potential choking hazard for young children. The 20-inch stockings, which sold for $9.99, feature a soft red, green, and white furry material with an attached stuffed white reindeer and are identified by a tag reading "Chrisha, Playful Plush, Made in Indonesia."
No injuries have been reported involving these stockings. Consumers who still have these stockings should either remove and discard the beads from the reindeer's antlers or return the stocking to the store where it was purchased for a full refund. For more information, consumers can contact Chrisha Creations at (401) 949-4328 or their local Price Club or Costco Wholesale Warehouse, or call PriceCostco at (800) 774-2678.
