For seven days beginning on 20 January 2009, retailers Bergdorf Goodman, Bergner's, Bloomingdale's, Boston Store, Carson Pirie Scott, Dillard's, Gottschalks, Herberger's, Macy's, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Parisian, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Younkers will make a total of $175 million worth of cosmetics available to be claimed for free by anyone who purchased a cosmetics product from Boucheron, Chanel, Christian Dior, Clarins, Conopco, Estée Lauder, Givenchy, Guerlain, or L’Oréal between 29 May 1994 and 16 July 2003. Each claimant may select one product from one of the named manufacturers from which he or she purchased cosmetics during the specified timeframe. No receipt or proof of purchase is necessary to claim a product. Cosmetics will be distributed on a first come, first served basis for as long as supplies last, and no rainchecks will be issued.
