“Free” Puritan’s Pride Products
In October 2016, a false advertising class-action lawsuit was filed against Puritan’s Pride, a company that sells vitamins, supplements, and health-related products. According to the complaint, the company deceptively advertises that, for a limited time, consumers who buy Puritan’s Pride products will receive free products when, in reality, it is not a limited time offer because the company always provides “free” products with a purchase. The lawsuit was transferred to federal court in November 2016. (Sharpe et al v. Puritan’s Pride, Inc. et al, Case No. 16-cv-6717, N. D. CA.)
