Upon phoning our local Carson Pirie Scott, the customer service team were immediately aware of this lawsuit. They said they no proof of purchase would be needed, but that class action members would be required to sign a log book upon receiving their free cosmetic item. What you receive depends on what you purchased during the qualifying timeframe. If you only purchased one product, you only get your choice of available free products for that particular manufacturer. If you purchased several qualifying items you my choose one free product from amongst those offered by the relevant manufacturers.
