Cash Back for Breast Cancer Awareness!

October 6, 2011

Chances are you’ve seen the pink ribbons everywhere by now, and chances are you know exactly what they’re for.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a time when people around the country participate in events to honor survivors, patients, and those who have succumbed to the disease.

It’s also a month in which we work to raise awareness and research in hopes of finding a cure.

According to the American Cancer Society, breast cancer affects one in eight women in the United States, though the death rate has been in a steady decline over the last few years. Still, roughly 200,000 new cases will be diagnosed this year. While awareness has been raised, the work is far from over.

Many KickItBack retailers are contributing to the efforts by providing education and tips about breast cancer, donating proceeds to the research, or selling “awareness gear.” Do your part, and receive great cash-back rewards. Rewards that are *ahem* great for donating!

Smashbox

Smashbox is a great source for all your cosmetic needs. You’ll find it all: primers, foundations, concealers, bronzers, lip sticks, mascara, and all the brushes you could ever ask for. We love their Best Sellers section! It’s broken down into Face, Eyes, Lips, and Cheeks subcategories.

In support of the cause, Smashbox is offering their award-winning O-Gloss lip gloss for just $22! Not only that, but all proceeds are donated to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation! Just make sure to buy before October 31.

The O-Gloss in an innovative lip gloss that goes on clear, and reacts with your body’s skin chemistry to instantly transform into your own custom shade of pink! What could be better than that?

When you shop at Smashbox using KickItBack, you’ll earn an additional 4% cash back on your purchase.

 

Sports Authority

In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Sports Authority is offering tips and facts on living a healthy and active lifestyle. They’ve put up a very cool interactive page that provides great tips on being active, watching your weight, and eating smart. Check it out here.

Also, shop their selection of products that lend support either by displaying pink ribbons, or by donating a portion of the proceeds to cancer research. You’ll find shoes and cleats, clothes and accessories, fitness gear, tennis racquets and balls, as well as gear for soccer, basketball and football.

Shopping with KickItBack will earn you an additional 1.5% cash back on your Sports Authority purchases!

NFL Shop

Any avid football fan will notice that NFL players sport pink throughout the entire month of October in support of breast cancer survivors and research. Those pink towels and cleats are just a flashy fashion statement (though they do look good)!

The NFL Shop isn’t only selling Breast Cancer Awareness gear like jerseys, T-Shirts, nursing scrubs, hats, wristbands, footballs, and on-field skull caps; you can also bid on authentic Pink Gear! You’ll find items like game-worn gloves and cleats, signed hats, jerseys and footballs! 100% of the profits benefit the American Cancer Society.

Shopping at the NFL Shop with KickItBack will earn you an additional 2.5% cash back on your purchases!
