    I'm sure you should be entitled to about £10,000 of compensation for this, write to the CEO of the company and demand that they pay you :D

    Oh, and while you're at it, you don't need to post the same thing in two different forums. Do I detect the aroma of pork-based luncheon meat around here ?

    I had a 'summer blanket' one that smelled of fish. It took about a week to work out it was the candle making the room smell!

    Can I have £10000 too please?

    Sorry to hear about your misfortune.

    Return to shop and they should replace.

    Write to Yankee and tell them what happened, how long you've been a customer and how disappointed you are. You should get a voucher in the post.
