Walmart To Pay $45M In A Class-action Lawsuit; Here's How Much Money You Could Get
Walmart will pay $45 million to customers who spent more than the lowest in-store advertised price for certain items, according to a class action settlement.
Customers who bought certain weighted goods and bagged citrus items in a Walmart store super-center or neighborhood market between Oct. 19, 208 to Jan. 19, 2024, are eligible to receive a settlement check up to $500, according to the settlement.
Items sold by weight, such as meat, poultry, pork, and seafood, are described as weighted goods, according to the settlement.
Bagged citrus are items such as certain organic oranges, grapefruit, tangerines, and navel oranges sold in bulk in mesh or plastic bags.
"Walmart, which dominates the United States market for grocery sales, touts that it 'helps people around the world save money and live better' by servicing approximately 230 million customers a week worldwide," the lawsuit claimed.
"The reality, however, is that Walmart uses unfair and deceptive business practices to deceivingly, misleadingly, and unjustly pilfer, to Walmart's financial benefit, its customers' hard-earned grocery dollars," the lawsuit continued.
The lawsuit, which was first obtained by Today.Com, states that customers are subjected to "three systemic unfair and deceptive business practices" by Walmart.
The lawsuit claims the retail giant falsely inflates the product weight on weighed products, mislabels the weight of bagged products and overcharges sold-by-weight clearance products.
Walmart denies the allegations made in the lawsuit and that it did anything wrong, according to the settlement's website.
"We will continue providing our customers everyday low prices to help them save money on the products they want and need," a Walmart spokesperson wrote in a statement to MassLive. "We still deny the allegations, however we believe a settlement is in the best interest of both parties."
To get a payment customers have to submit a valid and timely Claim Form, according to the settlement's website.
The amount of money an eligible customer will receive and what they must do to get a payment depends on the amount of weighted goods or bagged citrus they bought during the settlement class period, the settlement's website.
$10: If you don't have proof of purchase, but you can attest that you bought 50 weighted goods and/or bagged citrus in person in a Walmart Store during the settlement period.
$15: If you don't have proof of purchase, but you can attest that you bought 51 to 75 weighted goods and/or bagged citrus in person in a Walmart Store during the settlement period.
$20: If you don't have proof of purchase, but you can attest that you bought 76 to 100 weighted goods and/or bagged citrus in person in a Walmart Store during the settlement period.
$25: If you don't have proof of purchase, but you can attest that you bought at least 101weighted goods and/or bagged citrus in person in a Walmart Store during the settlement period.
Up to $500: If you have a receipt, proof of purchase or other documentation that shows you bought weighted goods and/or bagged citrus in person in a Walmart Store during the Settlement Class Period, and you have the amount that you paid for each item, you can get 2% of the total cost of the weighted goods and bagged citrus bought, capped at $500.
Payments can be made through a paper check, Zelle, CashApp, Venmo, ACH or a pre-paid MasterCard, according to the settlement's website.

VIEW ALL COURSE TIMES AND SESSIONS Prerequisites COMP_SCI 211 DescriptionThis course has four purposes: (1) to learn about the hierarchy of abstractions and implementations that comprise a modern computer system; (2) to demystify the machine and the tools that we use to program it; (3) to come up to speed on systems programming in C in the Unix environment; (4) to prepare students for upper-level systems courses.
COURSE GOALS: This course has four purposes. First, you will learn about the hierarchy of abstractions and implementations that comprise a modern computer system. This will provide a conceptual framework that you can then flesh out with courses such as compilers, operating systems, databases, networks, security, real-time systems, and others. The second purpose is to demystify the machine and the tools that we use to program it. This includes telling you the little details that students usually have to learn by osmosis. In combination, these two purposes will give you the background to understand many different computer systems. The third purpose is to bring you up to speed in doing systems programming in a low-level language (C) in the Unix (Linux/GCC/GDB/etc) environment. The final purpose is to prepare you for upper-level courses in systems.
This is a learn-by-doing kind of class. You will write pieces of code, compile them, debug them, disassemble them, measure their performance, optimize them, etc.
This course is ideally taken after COMP_SCI 211 early in your academic career. This is a REQUIRED COURSE for the CS Major.
