The Rules
Posts must be:

- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Please also avoid duplicates.
Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

The original announcement was on their Facebook page, and links to https://www.getyourfuckingmoneyback.com/
Note that they didn't raise their own prices (they absorbed 100% of the tariffs on products they make), so if you bought directly from them or through their Amazon listing, you didn't overpay and don't need a refund. If you bought from a retailer like Wal-Mart or Target, they'll start by refunding people who have a receipt, and then if there is money left over they'll try to refund anyone else who thinks they overpaid.
so they are actually giving back money they never charged anyone for? The money they are getting back is the money tarrif stole them no?
That seems to be correct!
This can't be a good financial decision for them, but holy shit is it based.
They've always bragged about making bad financial decisions simply because the results of those decisions amused them.
