Provides that it is an unfair or deceptive act or practice within the meaning of the Act for a person to: (1) advertise, display, or offer a price for goods or services that does not include all mandatory fees or charges other than taxes imposed by a government entity; or (2) engage in any fraudulent or deceptive conduct that creates a likelihood of confusion or of misunderstanding concerning the complete price of goods or services offered, displayed, or advertised. Provides that a person does not violate the provision if the total price of the goods or services being offered, displayed, or advertised, including any mandatory fees a consumer would incur during the transaction, is clearly and conspicuously disclosed in each advertisement or display and whenever a price is first shown to a consumer. Effective immediately.
