US EditionGrocery Outlet's 'Elsewhere' Prices Are Bogus, Oregon Lawsuit Claims
- Oregon Consumer Justice filed a class-action lawsuit on Monday against Grocery Outlet Inc. for deceptive 'elsewhere' pricing practices in Oregon stores.
- The suit alleges Grocery Outlet used fictitious reference prices that misled consumers into believing they saved money violating state consumer laws.
- Plaintiffs Stewart, Franz, and Sullivan documented examples where 'elsewhere' prices overstated savings, such as oat milk priced at $3.19 versus $1.99 at Fred Meyer.
- The lawsuit estimates that over 100,000 Oregon residents bought products based on misleading savings claims, with Nagra noting that such violations tend to have a greater financial impact on those with the fewest resources.
- The case demands injunctive relief, monetary damages, and a jury trial, and highlights ongoing consumer protection challenges amid rising living costs in Oregon.
