Sales on Frames at Michaels Stores
In March 2015, a state judge granted final approval of a settlement of a false advertising class-action lawsuit against Michaels Stores. The complaint, which was originally filed in 2012, alleged that the company advertised pricing discounts on framing products and services without actually providing customers with a discount. According to the settlement website, the settlement provides class members with a cash-value certificate for $32.50 to be used at any Michaels store in Ohio.
