Walgreens Bottle Deposit Oregon Class Action
Heather Gilberto files this class action on behalf of thousands of other Oregon Walgreens customers who were charged bottle deposits on exempt beverages that could not be refunded under Oregon law. When Ms. Gilberto learned that Walgreens charged her bottle deposits on exempt beverages, she complained but Walgreens refused to give her a cash refund. She now seeks $200 statutory damages for every customer ripped off by Walgreens’s reckless bottle deposit scam.
Walgreens is a national retail chain with 76 stores in Oregon and over $100 billion in annual revenue. Walgreens understands that the retail industry involves tight profit margins and high sales volumes. Walgreens understands that it’s profitable to collect 10-cent deposits on exempt beverages that its customers will never be able to exchange for a refund. Walgreens understands that Oregon law does not permit it to collect bottle deposits on exempt beverages but continues to overcharge its customers anyway.
