I like the keychains and the scarves! So cute for such a great cause!

I think they are cute but I do wish they would donate more than 20%, KWIM?
(I like the locket keyfob)

Thanks for posting Jennifer!

I agree, they could do a bit better than 20%, but it's still really nice that they're doing it.

I love the keyfob and the lanyard!

ITA they could donate a higher percentage! I like the watch, but I don't think I would wear it ever. The keychains & scarves are adorable!

juicyholicmum · September 30th, 2008, 04:46 AM

i love the kyfobs too and its for a good cause!

I think 20% is good, and actually pretty high for these items. I mean once you take into consideration how much the actual cost of the item is. For example a $60 key chain probably cost Coach around $25 to make, plus they are donating like $12.. which means they're only profiting like $23. (but not really because there are alot more costs involved).

Every bit helps

(i'm saving my yogurt lids and they only donate like $1 per lid

, lol)

These are a lot better than most other Breast Cancer items I have seen, donation-wise I mean. Where I work, we have a Columbia coat that is supposed to support Breast Cancer. But then they only donate $1 from each sale. And the coat retails for like $180.

Jennifer · September 30th, 2008, 10:28 AM

$1 for a $180 coat?!?! Talk about cheap. lol.

Oh wait, i just checked. Only 10 cents go to the susan komen foundation, which is still pretty high for a $1. yogurt.

Those items are very cute! They'll probably sell quite well. I wish they (companies) would help fight other cancers and diseases too. So much attention has been going to breast cancer; meanwhile, people are dying everyday from other cancers and conditions that get zero attention. I wish I were a celebrity!

VivaLaJuicy · September 30th, 2008, 03:01 PM

The scarves are my favorite items...

I love the watch and the scarves, especially the first one.
