For a Good Cause
Lance Armstrong achieved his victory against metastatic cancer with 3 years of powerful treatment and daily hard work. To help support other cancer victims, he created the yellow Livestrong wristband.

With help from Nike, the bracelet was launched in 2004 and became an instant, worldwide success. Money from bracelet sales went to fund cancer research - and almost 60 million bracelets have been sold so far. Considering that the National Cancer Institute's total yearly budget is $4 billion, it is extremely impressive that a single push from a single individual could bring in so much funding.

I'm not sure what the previous reviewer did differently - maybe he had other items in his cart? When I placed my order, it sourced the bralcelet from eGeneral Medical supplier with $5.50 shipping and handling. I really doubt you could get ANY internet retailer to manage to pay his shipping costs, packaging costs, employee salaries and healthcare costs and only charge you under $1 for shipping fees. Is $5.50 too high? It could probably cost me over that in gas to drive out to a store that carries the bracelet and drive it home again.

I love my yellow LiveSTRONG band. It shows my support for cancer research.

Good Product, So-so Shipping
The title pretty much says it all.
The band is wonderful.
It's not that the shipping was super slow or anything.
But the band was shipped in a regular envelope, causing the band to have a few bends in it. I figured they would go away after a day or two, but it's been a few weeks, and they're still there. Maybe only mine was funky. I dunno. Just something to think about.

PS-I'm over 13, just don't want my name on the web.
