Lucky for me, and you, the month of October is filled with may ways for the common consumer (us) to lend ourselves to the cause while embarking on one of our favorite hobbies: SHOPPING! Throughout the month of October, several entities will feature opportunities for us to score fabulous items for our wardrobes, jewelry boxes, and homes with some or all of the proceeds being donated to organizations dedicated to eradicating this disease. I have poured through tons of magazines and websites to find campaigns for you all. This post is a result of my diligence! Please feel free to thank me in advance for your new additions.....joking! But seriously, enjoy the deals and remember the cause. Breast cancer affects all of us... let's shop while kicking its ass!
