Get Ready for Your Slice of Compensation!

Over a million Canadians have jumped at the chance to claim their share of the whopping $500-million settlement linked to Loblaw's bread price-fixing scandal! This isn't just any class-action payout—it's one of the largest in Canadian history regarding price-fixing allegations that ran from 2001 to 2015.

What’s in the Settlement?

The settlement includes a hefty $404 million, but it hasn’t all gone to consumers just yet. Loblaw had already disbursed $96 million via $25 gift cards back in 2018. After deducting legal fees of $74 million and about $62 million for administrative costs, roughly $268 million remains for the eligible bread buyers.

Who’s Eligible for Payouts?

If you've bought packaged bread at any grocery store across Canada between January 1, 2001, and December 31, 2021, you’re in! Quebec residents have a slightly extended deadline of December 19, 2019. Remember, even if you received a $25 gift card, you can still make a claim, although you'll be further back in the queue.

How Much Could You Score?

Well, that’s the million-dollar question! The actual amount you receive depends on how many people make claims. If the total number of eligible claims hits three million, payouts could range from around $102 for new claimants and about $77 for those who got gift cards—if they all evenly share the remaining pot!

The Clock Is Ticking!

The claim process kicked off on September 11, and you must submit your claim by December 12. With over a million claims already filed in the first week, don’t wait too long to get in on this!

What Happens Next?

While this settlement marks a significant stride towards accountability within the grocery industry, class-action lawsuits remain ongoing against other retailers involved in the alleged scheme. So, keep your eyes peeled—the saga isn’t over yet!

Join the Crowd!

If you haven't yet, seize this opportunity to claim what you deserve! The ripple effects of this massive bread price-fixing case could lead to a surprisingly sweet payday.
