Here’s How You Can Scam $9.75 Out Of Anheuser-Busch
They just agreed to settle a class action lawsuit because there’s no tequila in their “Lime-A-Rita” beverage.
It seems like everyone is drinking hard seltzers and canned cocktails these days, but Anheuser-Busch was ahead of the curve. They’ve been selling the Lime-A-Rita for 10 years, along with other flavored “Ritas.” Clearly someone at AB had a crystal ball because these days sparkling alcoholic beverages are all the rage.
Turns out lots of people liked the stuff and it sold really well. The problem with being first is that they might not have considered that consumers would assume it’s an actual cocktail . . . with spirits, like tequila . . . rather than just being flavored beer, which is what it is.
Well, a legal eagle saw that the label could be misleading and, like any good snake lawyer, decided to hunt around for some cash. It looks like there’s some gold in those cans of “Rita” after all because…
Anheuser-Busch has just agreed to settle a class action lawsuit for false advertising, because people thought it contained tequila. The products ARE called “Ritas” and on the can it even says, “sparkling margarita.” Also, the packaging doesn’t say that it DOESN’T have tequila.
As part of the settlement, you can go to RitasSettlement.com to apply for a PARTIAL refund for any Ritas you purchased from 2018 up through last month.
Thing is, you have still have your receipt from the purchase to get a full refund. Who even gets a receipt from the liquor store, let alone keeps it this long? Seriously, that’s a hoarder right there. If – by some stretch of the imagine – you still have your receipt, you can claim up to $21.25 per household . . . but even without a proof of purchase, you can get up to $9.75.
So, there ya go fellow buzz-catcher. Get your click on and jump on the band wagon!
