Wristband Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh!

My Daughter is pestering me for one of those wristbands. I have tried all the sports shops and most of the other shops to no avail.

Anyone suggest a place that still stocks them. Im located in manchester/oldham area.

She is doing my head in - any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

    It depends which ones you want. I've just managed to order some pink cancer research ones (legit ones from source) there is a link somewhere on this site. I had to buy more than I needed as the minimum order was 5, but when they arrive I'm happy to pop one in the post for your daughter if you pm me. I'd rather someone wear it than for me to have a spare one sitting in a drawer.

    As for NIke ones I gave up looking and bought mine from ebay. However the prices do really vary so just sit there one day and watch them finish and bid late. I bought early one morning and most black/white Nike bands were going for about £10 with post and packing yet I managed to get one for £3 inclusive of p and p.

    I've also just bought a yellow Livestrong band for 75p including p and p from ebay as they are not selling at all anymore.
