There is a total of $79 million to be divided up amongst Canadians who purchased electronic devices containing DRAM between 1999-04-01 and 2002-06-30.

All end users (including businesses) *and* their resellers (TREVOR!) can BOTH claim!

Claims must be filed before June 23rd, 2015!

Those that *don't* claim will receive $0.

There is a simplified claim form (no receipts required) for households and businesses that bought at least 1 electronic device (containing DRAM) between 1999-04-01 and 2002-06-30. They guarantee a minimum $20 claim (not sure how the math works on that - must be an actuarial thing).

However, if you have your receipts (or were a reseller during those times) you can submit a "standard" claim and potentially receive much more than the $20 allocated to each household.

Full details and the claim forms can be found here: https://www.themoneyismine.ca/

This is like one of those share to win social media posts. The more households that claim - the smaller your payout per household will be. However, if anyone deserves the payout, it is MUUG members, so I feel it is in my duty as MUUG treasurer to remind everyone in MUUG to file a claim.
