“NEW YORK (CNN) — Airborne - the herbal supplement company that once claimed to help fight off colds - will pay $23.3 million to settle a class-action lawsuit brought against the company for false advertising, according to one of the groups that joined the suit.
“There’s no credible evidence that what’s in Airborne can prevent colds or protect you from a germy environment,” said CSPI Senior nutritionist David Schardt. “Airborne is basically on overpriced, run-of-the-mill vitamin pill that’s been cleverly, but deceptively, marketed.“”

If you purchased Airborne and would like to sign up for a refund, you can do so by going to this website. You can claim up to six product refunds without showing any proof of purchase.
I dunno about you, but this seems like a HUGE mistake for Airborne. I can’t even begin to imagine how many people, most of whom have never even used the product, will claim six refunds.
I used Airbone during our trip to CES, but since Josh purchased it and not me, I will leave it to him to claim the refund.
Have you ever used Airbone, and will you be claiming a refund (or six)?
