Do I have a case against the Mars company?
Find answers to your legal question.





Do I have a case against the Mars company?

I want to sue them for false advertising. I recently found a fun sized bag of M&Ms on my desk at work. Well, i was like, OOH! M&Ms!. However, upon reaching the last M&M, I realized that I wanted more, and I was really unhappy about that. They promised that it would be fun, but all I got was unhappiness. They caused me needless suffering through false advertising. Had I known well in advance that there was just enough candy in the bag to peeve me off, i would have been more psychologically and emotionally prepared.

I just won that case against McDonald's for making me fat, so I can pay the best attorney. Do you think I have a case in this one?


    




Princess Ninja
Oh yeah. Make sure you also get the attorney to make a case against your business, because you cried about this, slipped in a puddle of your own tears and injured yourself. That ought to get the ball rolling....^_^


Alucard
Good luck. I'm still working on sueing "The Never Ending Movie".
Who mesured the size of fun, I think that M&M's mesuerments are off.


Gweniveree
Make your own fun! What is fun about eating the little round M & M guys? You are supposed to glue them together and make neat things for your desk!! You failed....shame shame - but you can buy another bag and try it again - get glue too!


♥ that one girl ♥
i once had a frito in my bag of doritos. i was traumatized. i think i might sue that company as well for putting me in danger of eating a frito.

Nope. The fact that you finished the bag shows that you were having fun. They don't promise you fun after the bag is finished. If you want more fun, you'll just have to buy another bag - after all, that's where the fun is promised to be!

Honestly..... it should not have won the case just because mcdonald made u fat. Its your fault on what u eat if u choose to eat fast food then of course your gonna get fat mcdonalds should counter sue u for that none sense. M&M are for people who loves chocolate and put some people on a smile. But if your suffering from life problems it isnt their fault they will just give u more candy. Just like some idiot women who sue a company because she didnt had enough avocado in her bowl these are none sense and a waste of tax money.

No. It's not false advertising. "Fun" is not a word that has enough truth or falsity to support a false advertising claim. But it's a nice bit of satire.

For more satire, check out the lyrics to Weird Al's "I'll Sue Ya" song from his latest album.

Good luck,

Get a contingency lawyer. Your first meeting should be free. If the lawyer thinks it is a good case he will take it for a % of the total amout you get in a setlement. If not then you should not file a case.
If the lawyer takes the case and you loose then he/she collects nothing.


I'm a fruitbooter... So what
aww poor person where do you live?? i will buy you a big bag os M&Ms

and i dont think you do have a case sorry!

Hmmm I thought you ment it more serious, like the fact that they are testing on animals, -- hmmm check: http://www.marscandykills.com/ --

But honestly you don't, you can sue a candy company because you did get enough chocolate in a bag.


Amy M
Sure what the heck!...People like yourself will sue for ANYTHING, so why not over not enough M & M's to satisfy your voracious apatite. Sounds like a winner for sure. Sad but you mite actually get something out of it. May I'll sue for having had this question posed to me....lets see I can sue YOU for asking it, YAHOO for letting you post it, My service provider to the internet for letting me log on and then theres my computer manufacturer, the company that made the chip that makes the computer work, the store I bought it and the kid behind the counter who didnt warn me about YOU.


willie hughes
Of course you have a case!
Sue them for a life-long supply of M&Ms and ship some over to meeeeeeeeeeeeeee, too!

if you could convince the court about mickey d's then you should be able to convince them about this.

Honestly...if you called up and made a complaint you could probably get some free candy. That's how companies work. ;)


Fox
I'm sorry but I don't think you have any thing to sue for I can't believe you won the McDonalds case what they do make the food to good you could have not ate the food go and buy more m&ms it should make you happy for another brief moment. It’s a fun sized meaning it small get a king sized next time.


redhotboxsoxfan
