Day 21: Lighters

I was perusing the Ace Hardware the other day in search of a rake.  Apparently raking is something you are supposed to do when you have a yard.  News to me but I guess I can give it a whirl.  I really had not intended to see any pink ribbon stuff at the hardware store, but I gave up being suprised by this sort of thing a long time ago:

I looked up BIC and there is absolutely nothing on their website (that I can find) that gives any more detail about this quite special grill and candle lighter.  The one place I DID find info was on the Susan G. Komen site.  BIC is a corporate partner and will give up to $300,000 from the sale of of about 10 items to Komen (see list below).

Look closely at this photo.  It pretty clearly says National Breast Cancer Foundation which is an entirely separate organization than Komen.  Huh.  I hope they send their big fat check to the right place. 

The list (stay tuned for "Correction Tape" and "Shavers" fight breast cancer!)
