Jewellery Retailer

In April 2004, the Bureau resolved a complaint alleging that a jewellery retailer’s Yellow Pages advertisement that included the phrase "50% off on jewellery year-round" was potentially misleading.

After being contacted by the Bureau, the company agreed to remove the advertisement from subsequent editions of the Yellow Pages and to remove all in-store signs carrying the advertisement. The company also agreed to place a corrective notice in the local newspaper.
