The #1 search that people have been coming to my blog is to read my postings on liveSTRONG bracelets and looking for Pink liveSTRONG bracelets.
I've been emailed on where to find the pink ones, how much they cost, etc. I did a little Google research and I've found out some information on these. If you know more, please leave a comment so everyone else interested can learn.
There are definately pink bracelets out there, but the ones I've seen on eBay look like people wanting to make a buck on the fever/fad of these. I even saw a posting of "Very Rare Pink/Blue/Purple/Red liveSTRONG bracelets". Huh?
The only place I found "official" charity driven pink bracelets was at Target. Of course, they are sold out, but want you to check back for availability.
Here's a link to a forum on the Susan G. Koman Breast Cancer Foundation discussing pink bracelets.
There is a definate opportunity for breast cancer foundations to make an organized plan to raise money with a pink bracelet. Can they seize the moment and satisfy the demand?

**UPDATE** I think some of the confusion could be from "liveSTRONG" searches on eBay. There are bracelets that Nike has made called "Ballers" that are different colored. I've seen 'Pink Marble, Purple, Red, White, Black, Yellow and Blue' on eBay. The sellers of these bracelets put the "liveSTRONG" name in the copy and sometimes the sell description to gain addition hits. Most of the time it will say "like liveSTRONG" or "not a liveSTRONG" bracelet. These are aimed at basketball players and fans that want to wear one to be a "Baller".

That's a great idea as a fundraiser! I posted about the Koman bracelets a few days ago. If you find other places that are officially helping charity, make sure to email me and I'll update the posting.
Good luck.

There is pink ones!! Alot of my friends have them! THEY ARE REAL! They just haven't came out to the public yet!

Holly!
I know there are pink ones! I know they are real! But, there are no official liveSTRONG pink bracelets. If you have one, no money is being donated to the LAF and its a fake.
However, there are plenty of other pink bracelets. I've posted the ones I know about that have a charity fundraiser.

Good luck.
