Title: Walmart Settles Class Action Lawsuit, Offering Up to $500 to Eligible Customers

In a recent development, retail giant Walmart has reached a settlement in a class action lawsuit, agreeing to pay $45 million to customers who may have been overcharged for certain weighted goods and bagged citrus items. Despite denying any wrongdoing, the company has taken this step to resolve the allegations.

The lawsuit specifically alleges that Walmart overcharged customers for weighted products such as poultry, pork, and seafood, as well as bulk citrus sold in bags. The settlement will apply to customers who made purchases of these items between October 19, 2018, and January 19, 2024.

Affected customers who have retained their receipts are particularly encouraged to file a claim as the cash payments will vary depending on the products purchased during the specified time period. The amount each customer will receive from the settlement could be as much as $500.

To be eligible for the settlement, customers must submit their claims by June 5, ensuring they don't miss out on the opportunity to receive compensation for potential overcharges. Details on how to file a claim and access further information on the settlement can be found by clicking here.
