Hey guys, this is nothing new, if you recall several months ago the government fined one of the major retailers JC Penney I think a pile of money for doing the same thing. Basicly advertising something to be on sale down from a price that it was never sold at. It appears that in this case the lawyers make the killing while the class action plaintiffs get bupkus. When the government levies the fines they make the killing and we get the news (again bupkus). Why retailers continue to engage in this stupidity amazes me because it certainly does not appear to be worth the $$$ it costs them if they are charged.
