Additional Information

A class action lawsuit has been settled for $2 million against Costco, a wholesale retailer that sells products under the Kirkland brand. The lawsuit alleged that Kirkland Signature Moist Flushable Wipes were falsely advertised as flushable, causing damage to pipes, septic systems, and other plumbing when flushed. Consumers claimed they wouldn't have purchased the wipes if they had known they weren't truly flushable.

Costco denies any wrongdoing but has agreed to the settlement to avoid the costs of litigation. The settlement aims to compensate consumers who may have been misled by the advertising of these wipes.

Eligible class members can receive cash payments based on the number of Kirkland Signature Moist Flushable Wipes they purchased during the class period.

Each product is eligible for a $1.30 payment.
There is a minimum guaranteed payment of $7.50.
You can claim for up to 43 wipes, resulting in a maximum payment of $55.90.
