Breast Cancer Awareness Month 2010 Promotions

As you may have heard, October is Breast Cancer Awareness month (and, for those keeping track, today is National Denim Day), established 25 years ago to educate and empower women (and men) about a disease in which almost 200,000 new cases were diagnosed last year and that caused over 40,000 deaths last year as well.  In order to raise money for research and/or raise consciousness, a number of retailers are offering special promotions.
