ST PAUL, MINN. – The state of Minnesota will receive more than 630 thousand dollars as part of a settlement with Menards.
The deal is linked to claims of deceptive advertising in the home improvement retailers’ eleven percent rebate program and price gouging during the pandemic. Wisconsin-=based Menards has agreed to pay four-point-25 million dollars to ten states, including Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, and South Dakota. The attorney general involved says Menards also raised prices on household items such as rubbing alcohol, garbage bags and dish soap during the COVID-19 pandemic.
