Recalled Tylenol products still on CVS shelves in California
Cure CVS has found expired food, infant formula and over-the-counter medication for sale at hundreds of CVS stores. While many of these problems persist, now it seems there's another reason to be cautious of the products on some CVS shelves. Recalled Tylenol products still on store shelves [Bakersfield Now, 1/20/09]
BAKERSFIELD, Calif. -- Walking out of a local pharmacy store, Kim Van Tassoe said she was not aware of a recall of numerous Tylenol products.
"It's very concerning, and I had no idea," said Van Tassoe.
The list includes batches of Tylenol, both regular and extra strength, Children's Tylenol, Eight-hour Tylenol, Tylenol Arthritis, Tylenol PM, Children's Motrin, Motrin IB, Benadryl, Rolaids, Simply Sleep and St. Joseph's Aspirin.

I just want to state that I find CVS very pro consumer. If an oversight is made on a recall item and lets face it employees are only human, the product will be caught at the register with a can not sell prompt. I am sure you are just one more uninformed group who chase companies to make a statement. I also am sure you will not ever let any statement made against your beliefs
remain on your site. As for locking up condoms put the blame where it lies. LOW LIFE SHOPLIFTERS THAT CAUSE PRICING IN ALL RETAIL ESTABLISHMENTS TO RISE. SIMPLE REALITY. Should any retailer not address a business liability. I suppose the fact that they need to use theft prevention on razor blades, razors, ink catridges, mp3 player, media card etc makes them a threat to society. I dare you to print this on your misleading website
Lets get something straight, yeah, the product was still on the shelf, but unless you stole it, it wouldn't effect you. Recalled items are entered into the register system and if one is passed over the scanner, an alert will appear on the register screen "Item May Not Be Sold." This prevents customers from purchasing a dangerous product. There is nothing dangerous about the product still being on the shelves.
How come no one has a responce to these two comments...? Oh I know why!!! They are right. why not delete this story from your site?
