Pink Playing Cards by Bicycle

October 28th, 2009 · Amazon, Breast Cancer, Breast Cancer Research Foundation

These are official Bicycle Playing Cards in every way, except they’re colored pink and the reverse of each card has a pink ribbon to support breast cancer awareness.

It’s a great way to support breast cancer research (a portion of proceeds will go to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation), as well as bring some awareness to your poker night.

October 26th, 2009 · Breast Cancer, KitchenAid, Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation

Cook for the Cure® Tea Kettle - PinkIn past years we’ve highlighted some of KitchenAid’s best products in their Cook for the Cure collection, including their innovative Pass the Plate promotion and of course, the always popular Pink KitchenAid Mixer.

This year’s new entrant is a very stylish and functional tea kettle. The Cook for the Cure® Tea Kettle in Pink is new for this year and is one of the most beautiful tea kettle designs I’ve seen.

The kettle holds two quarts of water, has a stylish and easy-to-grip silicone handle which protects your hands against the heat, and is dishwasher safe.

Pink Ribbon Shop at Zazzle – Breast Cancer Awareness T-Shirts, Stamps, Stationery and more.

October 24th, 2009 · Breast Cancer, Zazzle

pink ribbon shop

The Pink Ribbon Shop at Zazzle is on Zazzle’s prestigious Community Giving program. It contains a huge amount of products ranging from postage stamps to T-Shirts to stationery, mugs, shoes, and even pet clothing, all displaying the pink ribbon design.

There are other vendors on Zazzle that sell pink ribbon items, but be careful of those, as many of them do not donate a portion of proceeds to help breast cancer victims. The Pink Ribbon shop does, since it’s run by Zazzle themselves. In fact, 20% of all sales will benefit breast cancer awareness causes.

Pink Golf Balls

October 22nd, 2009 · Amazon, Breast Cancer, Breast Cancer Research Foundation

These pink Wilson Hope 12 Ball Ladies Golf Balls are a great and stylish set of golf balls. They’re high quality golf balls, built by Wilson to be responsive, powerful, and provide straight drives. They’re also handy if you, like me, occasionally hit a ball into the rough, as the attractive pink color really stands out.

Each ball has a pink ribbon logo imprinted on it, and a portion of proceeds will go to help the Breast Cancer Research Foundation for finding a cure.

Pink Master Locks

October 20th, 2009 · Amazon, Breast Cancer, Breast Cancer Research Foundation

It’s as solid as any other Master Lock, of course, with a 4-pin Tumbler locking mechanism to resist lock picks and a hardened steel shackle for increased cut resistance.

For each lock sold, Master Lock will make a donation to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.

Pink Basketball

October 10th, 2009 · Uncategorized

pink basketballThis Wilson Pink Basketball is a basketball which is the same as a regulation NCAA Women’s basketball but is pink. Of course, it can’t be used for official college or high school games due to its color, but it’s a great ball to use as a practice and warmup ball, getting autographs, raffles for charity, and just as a conversation piece.

 It’s sold by FogDog through Amazon. For Breast Cancer Awareness Month 2009, FogDog also has a number of other pink products in its Breast Cancer Awareness Collection, where you can save 15% off. But hurry, you need to order before 10/31.
