Bill Summary

Amends the Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act. Provides that any printed or digital receipt issued or made available to a consumer by a retail seller at the time of sale must clearly list the single unit price of each individual item purchased by the consumer regardless of the number or quantity of each individual item purchased by the consumer at the time of sale. Provides that a retail seller who violates this requirement commits an unlawful practice within the meaning of the Act.

AI Summary

This bill amends the Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act to require retail sellers to provide more transparent pricing information on receipts. Specifically, any printed or digital receipt issued at the point of sale must now clearly display the single unit price for each individual item purchased, regardless of the quantity bought. This means that if a customer purchases multiple units of the same item, the receipt must show the per-unit price for each item. If a retail seller fails to comply with this new requirement, they will be considered to have committed an unlawful practice under the Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act, which could potentially subject them to legal penalties or enforcement actions. The goal of this bill appears to be increasing pricing transparency for consumers and helping them better understand the cost of individual items when making purchases.
