A 1158 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires issuance of raincheck for unavailable good or service advertised by digital coupon.

This New Jersey bill requires retailers to provide a raincheck if an item advertised via a digital coupon (like a weekly circular or website discount) is unavailable in stock. The raincheck must allow the consumer to purchase the same item at the advertised price or discount for at least 60 days. It directly affects consumers who rely on digital coupons and retailers offering such promotions. Violations are treated as consumer fraud under state law, potentially resulting in fines up to $20,000 per offense.
