DawniD11 Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 Does anyone know, besides the one.org (or similar) websites were you can get a white wristband? I would like to get one - I don't really need 10. Plus I'd like to purchase and pay cash and instantly have it...does anyone know of any stores (in the US) selling these?

mburn Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 No! Dont go to ebay. The chances are your not paying money to any charity and they are either fake, stolen or just some greedy cunt keeping the money. Im pretty sure you can get them from the official websites of make poverty history or make trade fair or oxfam. I got mine from balfour newsagents! But yeah just be cautious where you get them from.

polkahard Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 I got mine at a U2 concert. If you happen to be going, they have One stands set up all over inside the venue (thank you Bono!), and they're selling the wristbands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indiepixie Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 http://shop.sandbag.uk.com/MakePovertyHistory/Store/DisplayAllItems.html They should ship to America too however... You have to have a... Mastercard Switch or, Visa card You need to register also just with address and e-mail so not too bad. £2 with shipping in UK Hope that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DawniD11 Posted July 6, 2005 Author Share Posted July 6, 2005 thanks for all the suggestions... You can get a "10 pack" here in the states at one.org...but I really don't need 10 and kinda want to just go to a store and buy them and pay cash... maybe they will have one of these "stands" set up at the coldplay concert here in august... I will check the body shop and see if they have them..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMagpie Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 Order 10 and give the other ones to family/friends....It won't be a problem getting rid of them. Trust me. I bought 10 at a U2 concert and I should have bought 20 I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polkahard Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 I just ordered a live 8 shirt and i am so excited to get it!!!! :D Where did you order the Live8 shirt from? I've been looking around online, and the best price I could find was like $45 with shipping, which is just outrageous, especially since none of the proceeds were going to Africa. If you could help me out, it'd be greatly appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuchARushOfBlood Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 There's at least three variations of the white wristband: UK says "MAKE POVERTY HISTORY" Canada says "makepovertyhistory.ca" US says "ONE" It all comes down to preference. I ordered the original UK one online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soleil Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 I'm supposed to get a wristband because I got tickets for the concert this past weekend - they said it was a special?? .. I wonder if this is the same one you guys are talking about?> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawniD11 Posted July 7, 2005 Author Share Posted July 7, 2005 well i went to the bodyshop here, and they don't have them...they have things for breast cancer... I'm guessing here in the states that is body shop's "cause" and over in europe make poverty history is their cause... I guess I will just wait to see at the coldplay concert... yeah i heard about that promotion with lawn tickets - i believe it is the one.org one but yes that is what we are talking about...
