    Actual Label Instructions on consumer goods - makes you wonder

    On Sears hairdryer: Do not use while sleeping.
    (Gee, that's the only time I have to work on my hair!)

    On a bag of Fritos:You could be a winner! No purchase necessary.
    Details inside. (The shoplifter special!)

    On a bar of Dial soap: Directions: Use like regular soap.
    (and that would be how?)

    On some Swann frozen dinners: Serving suggestion: Defrost.
    (But it's *just* a suggestion!)

    On a hotel provided shower cap in a box: Fits one head.
    (really?)

    On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert: (printed on bottom of the box)
    Do not turn upside down. (Too late! You lose!)

    On Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding: Product will be hot after heating.
    (Are you sure???Let's experiment.)

    On packaging for a Rowenta iron: Do not iron clothes on body.
    (But wouldn't that save more time?)

    On Boot's Children's cough medicine: Do not drive car or operate machinery.
    (We could do a lot to reduce the rate of construction incidents if we just kept those 5 year olds off those fork lifts.)

    On Nytol sleep aid: Warning: may cause drowsiness.
    (One would hope!)

    On a string of Chinese-made Christmas lights: For indoor or outdoor use only.
    (As opposed to outer space?)

    On a Japanese food processor: Not to be used for the other use.
    (Now I'm curious.)

    On Sainsbury's peanuts: Warning: contains nuts.
    (but no peas?)

    On a child's Superman costume: Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly.
    (That's right, destroy a universal childhood fantasy!)

      LOL...I was at Big Lots Christmas shopping the other day and I bought a CD case (holds 12 CD's). On the outside packaging it says, "Unit becomes portable when carried".

      I was laughing hysterically in Big Lots....the clerk had to think I was nuts.

          My suggestions are from "personal experience" and research only. Do not consider this as legal advice. Each bankruptcy case is different.

            Oh my God, these are hilarous!

            I have a picture of my favorite label warning, but I don't have it handy right now.

            It is for one of those rubbermaid plastic storage tubs with a cover that snaps on. There is a BIG STICKER underneath the lid that has a picture of a baby sitting in the tub with the lid on and it has a big huge red circle with slash.

            It was just amusing.
