FatWallet users posted the sale prices of major retailers, often before they were officially released in retailers' advertisements, which involved the site in a legal dispute in 2002 involving [[Black Friday (shopping)|Black Friday]] advertisements. Several retailers, including [[Walmart]], [[Target Stores|Target]], [[Best Buy]] and [[Staples, Inc.|Staples]], have served FatWallet with [[Notice and take down|"take-down" notices]] pursuant to the [[Digital Millennium Copyright Act]], claiming that their sale prices were [[copyright]]ed and must be removed from the FatWallet site. In addition, Wal-Mart served FatWallet with a [[subpoena]] to reveal the identity of the users who had posted Wal-Mart's prices, but the demand was later dropped.<ref name='NYT-Walker-2005-09-18'>
