Telebrands “Everyday Savings” Program
Allegations: Failing to tell customers who purchased products that they would be enrolled in its “Everyday Savings” program
In June 2017, a class-action lawsuit was filed against Telebrands Corp. and Moulton Logistics Management for allegedly deceptively advertising Grassology (a “breakthrough” alternative to traditional grass seed) by “Guarantee[ing] to Grow” grass more slowly and with roots that are four times deeper than traditional grass, as well as grow grass that requires less frequent mowing and watering and does not require fertilizing and weeding when, according to plaintiffs, Grassology does not work as advertised and the grasses are unsuited for many climates and terrains. (Jackson et al v. Telebrands Corp. and Moulton Logistics Management, Case No. 17-cv-4107, C. D. CA.)
