At my work (newsagency) we sell "saying braclets", pink one says love and the purple one says hope and there also blue and orange but im not sure what they say, and theres also clear ones which have just come in.

How about making a donation to the charity instead of wearing a band showing everyone you've contributed?

MiSs_SuZ: is your newsagency a chain or just an independent?

all newsagencies are 'independent'; one owner can have more than one, but they are still technically 'independent'...

Go Lance, I have had one on since September last year for 2 reasons one is my dad is recovering from the big C and secondly because Lance Armstrong is my Hero and as a family we all follow is progress throughout the year and especially in the tour de france my littlest kids middle name is Lance too :D

I don't think it's about showing people that you've donated. It's about showing support for a cause. Some people like to donate and remain anonymous, some people like to show support, like the pink ribbon, "MJ is innocent" t-shirts :lol: stuff like that.
