Crafting Dopers, quick Livestrong question

You know, those yellow Livestrong bands everyone has and is mad over having. I haven’t seen them anywhere, and I want to be a bit different anyway.

If anyone has one, can you do a quick DMC-color check and let us know what color it is? I’d like to get some floss this week and play around with it a bit, but I’d like it to be the “right” color.

Thanks!

Isn’t the whole point of a LiveStrong bracelet is that you donated to cancer research?

Oh, I wasn’t aware that you couldn’t donate to research w/o it. :wink:

It’s more than an “I gave” receipt. At least as far as I understand it.

Yes, it’s more than a receipt, but I thought you just wanted one and didn’t want to pay for it and/or didn’t know you could get one with a donation so you were making one yourself.

as I understand it, the “coolness” factor has set in to the point that people are being offered at least $20 to give up theirs.

Why on Earth would someone pay $20 for one, when you can buy them for $1 each?

Perhaps the OP can use the graphic on that site to judge the color as well.

I’d imagine the massive backorder time has something to do with it.

Heck, there are 3,000 or so on eBay for less than $5.
