Pink Ribbon Review BCAM Giveaway: Day Five

Welcome to day five of the Pink Ribbon Review Breast Cancer Awareness Month Giveaway!
In honor of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month (NBCAM), I’m giving away a pink ribbon product every single day during the month of October.
Today’s giveaway: Pink Boxers!
Pink Boxers Distribution, Inc. is unique in that it is the only breast cancer organization to market products for men. This allows men to show their true colors, support loved ones in a distinctive and unique way and participate in a cause about which they too, feel strongly.
These boxers … 100% fine-combed cotton … wonderfully pink … stylish … beautifully packaged in a signature tube you see in the image above.
Pink Boxers was established exclusively to raise funds for the American Breast Cancer Foundation (ABCF) for early detection, financial aid and breast cancer awareness, with 100 percent of its profits going to the cause.
How is that possible, you ask? Well, they define profit as “any excess in revenue above the cost of production, marketing and distribution of the products.”
But, Pink Boxers Distribution, Inc. guarantees that the donation per product sold will always be “in excess of 20% of the purchase price of EACH and EVERY product but may vary depending on costs of producing and marketing of the product.”
Pink Boxers retail for $28 – $32 (so you can do the math, right?).
Typically, they are available exclusively at www.pinkboxers.org — but of course, one lucky winner will get a pair sent to them courtesy of the Pink Ribbon Review (thank you, Pink Boxers Distribution).
So … for the real men out there who aren’t afraid to wear pink … comment to win.
Please refer to the the Pink Ribbon Review BCAM giveaway rules if you’ve not done this before.
You have until midnight EST to comment. Good luck!

I appreciate men getting involved in this disease since it affects them also. My husband would be proud to wears these boxers. thank you
Reading about the boxers brought tears to my eyes thinking about the support my husband showed me a few years ago when I was dealing with my issue. He proudly wears pink a lot. A private reminder as a couple that he supports women.
My husband isn’t afraid to wear pink-my husband has been supportive of me through all my recent health issues and he really has helped me through some difficult times.
In any general case, DH would laugh and mock about wearing pink or purple but not for this cause. I am sure he would be proud.

These would be perfect for my hubby…he lost his mother to Cancer many years ago and he still hurts. He definitely supports the cause and keeps an eye on what I do in order to prevent getting anything.
I know my hubby would sport these proudly (underneath his pants) lol. Seriously he would do anything he could to help the cause. He knows how I feel about it.
My Hubby always remembers breast cancer awareness month. I remember a few years back.. I got me a Gorgeous bejeweled powder compact when I was feeling less than gorgeous. I was on Tamoxofen. I felt like a QUEEN. We couldn’t even afford it. Whenever I took that compact out… OH boy, It perked me up! I think Hubby would look HOT in these Boxers!
These are great! Thanks for sharing so many wonderful cause related marketing products.
These look so comfortable! I would love to give my husband these boxers, and he would proudly wear them if he knew why I entered!
GL everyone!
Pink Boxers and it was not a laundry mistake….(giggle). Can you guess what hubby will be getting for Christmas? Or it could be my son so he can show his support as the same time as he shows his undies. (sigh…fashions fads for boys).
Thank you for supporting this vendor. AND the cause.
Any man would look HOT in these boxers – even my hubby!
Real Men Do Wear PINK!!!!
I’d wear these proudly.
My guy has always shown his true colors.
Given the things my boyfriend has worn, I’m confident he’d wear these without a second thought. Though knowing me I’d steal one of the pairs – boxers make such nice pajamas.
I’m positive my hubby would wear these with pride as his life has been touch by breast cancer as well.
Love these! Ludington, Michigan is going totally pink for the holidays this year starting Nov. 14th…all decorations, parade, pink gingerbread house …you name it. ~to show our support. http://www.pinkchristmas.org (going live this week) Love the ways we can show we care! Great item for the guys!
My husband, as well as my two sons, would be proud to wear these boxers in support of breast cancer awareness.
I know my husband would be proud to wear these–his mother is a breast cancer survivor.
What a great contest! I really appreciate all that you’re doing to further the cause.
This is a great prize.

I would wear them. Just don’t tell any of the guys in the quarry, lol.
From Karen: Got the email Bob, no worries!
My hubby and I would both wear these. I guess we’ll have to fight over them if we win!
My husband wears pink to support the cause and he would look so sexy in these- too bad none of you other ladies get to see that!

Save the TaTas!!
I’ll proudly wear these boxers!
Women, you rock!!
I’m an ovarian cancer survivor but it’s related to the BRAC gene mutation so it was only a matter of time. Good contest.
Shoot, I’d wear those! Forget giving them to hubby!
With several survivors in our family, my hubby proudly wears ass much pink as is available for men — and he works in construction!
My boo would love em.
I would love to see my hubby in pink boxers!
My husband says he will wear these!! Good cause he says!!
I would love to win pink boxers for my hubby!
Hello. I came across the website in my search for ideas for the annnual “Pink Party” that we have held in my home since my wife was diagnosed with breast cancer four years ago. I have been very involved in the process of making others aware of the impact of cancer on the family and the role that caregivers/significant others play in the treatment process. I would be honored to wear the pink boxers ( I may have to fight my wife over them before it’s all over) Thanks for the site and the cool contest. You have a new regular reader!
These are so cute…they look like they would be fun to wear, and a great reminder of what they support. =) I would love to win them!
Happy Sunday! My brother-in-laws mother went through two masectomies. She made it through both with flying colors. She passed away a few years ago from another cause. Please enter me in your drawing for these men’s boxers. I know he would wear them with pride. Many thanks, Cindi
Just got diagnosed 2 wks. ago, have dbl. mast/recon in two weeks. My hubby would love these!
From Karen: I’ll keep you in my prayers during this particularly stressful time.
When it comes to breast cancer, men dont have a problem wearing pink. Breast Cancer effects men also.
This is a great giveaway, just found your site very interesting
I would gladly wear pink boxers to support my wife as a reminder to do a regular self exam
Love the pink boxers.

Hubby would love these. His support is amazing. Reading this contest makes me feel like i need to go wake him and tell him how much I love him .
From Karen: Great idea Kelly. We need to remember that not only is every day a gift, but every day with our husbands is a gift.
