I don't know if you've seen these, but they have new colored Livestrong bracelets like in light blue, pink, purple, and red. They're REALLY cute, but they're FAKE. They look just like the real thing except for obviously they're not yellow, but if you take one and try to stretch it, it stretches a LOT farther than the real ones. Also, the bag it comes in has a different name at the top even though the bracelet still says Livestrong. The reason for this thread is asking you please not to buy those because the money doesn't go to cancer foundations, it goes to the store that you buy it from. Does anyone agree with me that it's just wrong??

They're bracelets that help cancer, or the money you pay for 'em, goes to help cancer victims.
My sign is Cancer, I should get some money for my soul.

They aren't FAKE, they're just for different things...for example, pink is for breast cancer. You could probably find what the other colors stand for if you did an online search.

All I know is that soccer players wear the blue and yellow one. So I'm getting them. I ordered them already.
But I don't intend to get any other color.

there are also bracelets that supposedly designate what eating disorder you have (which i think is sick) along with those asthma and allergy bracelets.

if they say livestrong on them, and they are any color but yellow, then they ARE fake. ive seen them in a lot of stores around here, but they don't benefit any organization.
i personally have:
25 livestrong bracelets( dont ask, i won't sell them)
2 dark pink share beauty spread hope brest cancer bracelets
2 dark pink Hope breastcancer bracelets
2 light pink Hope breast cancer bracelets
2 teal ovarian cancer bracelets
5 lime green muscular dystrophy bracelets
5 blue lung cancer bracelets
5 yellow support our troops bracelets
5 red aids bracelets
5 clear white multiple schlosis bracelets
and 2 of every color of the nike baller bands
we get them all sent to us cuz my parents donate a ton of money to all of the different organizations each year.

Like others have said, if they say LIVESTRONG and are not yellow, then they're fake. As far as I know they are, at least.
All I do know for sure is that I want a pink "Share beauty, spread hope" one. Hmph!
