BIC Band Giveaway

August 16, 2011 | Uncategorized

 

Goooooooooddd MORNING! I am back in Mississippi, and busy busy busy.  Sunday I drove to my parents house for a retailer visit Monday, and after the rain I saw the most BEAUTIFUL rainbow. Very rarely have I ever seen one from end to end, all the way across. I do not recommend trying to take a picture and driving like I was…do as I say not as I do, people.

God painted a beautiful rainbow!

My mom and I went to see the Help after visiting my potential store, and while it was a good movie, the book is better. So, if you liked the movie and haven’t read the book I highly recommend it! My mom also drove me by the house my dad grew up in in New Orleans. It was cool to see and hear stories from her about driving by his house before they started dating when she “liked” him, and he just happened to be outside cutting grass so she ducked down in the seat. How funny!

After, when I dropped my mom off at home, I got to see my NOLA girl! She is getting so big and growing “real” dog fur now.

I can’t believe Healthy Living Summit is SO close. I am finally starting to get excited. It seemed so far away when I bought my ticket! Lots to do before I leave though! Like….host a BIC Band giveaway!

In case you haven’t heard of these nifty little things, let me enlighten you. Bic Bands stands for “Because I can” bands.  So cool! Here is more:

B.I.C. Bands are headbands that will not slip~ (SERIOUSLY!) They are great for any workout, a trip to the coffee shop, going out with friends, work….
you name it, your B.I.C. Band will keep your hair looking FAB! They are headbands that stay in place and help others win their race!

B.I.C. Bands gives back to those in need with every purchase!

Also, really, they don’t slip, I love them! And, way stylish, right?

Yes, you read that right folks. For every band sold, they give a dollar to charity. How COOL! This months’ charity is the Leukemia and Lymphoma society/Team in Training (which of course you all know I am training for!) So, if you have been pondering buying one, please do it this month! I plan to buy some this month and save them for Christmas gifts. GREAT stocking stuffers! They have a ton of cool colors and patterns too. Go to their website and check them out!

Guess what? Because the people at BIC bands are so awesome, they have given me bands to review and one to giveaway to a reader! This free band, score!

How cute? It’s SPARKLY! And it can be yours! here’s how:

1.) MANDATORY Be a follower of my blog (and tell me you are)

2.) Go to BIC Bands website and tell me your favorite band. (separate comment)

3.) Go to Bic Bands Facebook page, become a fan, and tell them Running With Sass sent you (separate comment)

4.) Retweet, post on your blog, or FB page (one separate comment each) Be sure to enter my twitter name @runningwithsass and my URL for retweets.

That’s it, easy-peasy and you can get a free BIC band! This giveaway will go until Thursday night, August 18th, at 8:00 Central time. I will post a winner Friday.

QOTD: Have you ever been to where your parents grew up?

I turned 40 today. 🎉 Hitting a milestone like t I turned 40 today. 🎉 Hitting a milestone like this has me reflecting—not just on what I’ve accomplished, but on who I’m becoming.

I’ve always been driven to achieve, to push, to prove. But lately, I’ve been learning to celebrate presence over performance, connection over perfection.

Today wasn’t about checking a box or hitting a goal—it was about pausing, feeling grateful, and eating a ridiculous amount of cake with people I love. And honestly? That feels like growth.

Here’s to 40: more aligned, more grounded, and still a little extra. 😉

Turning 40 tomorrow. 🎂 Big milestones always Turning 40 tomorrow. 🎂 

Big milestones always make me pause and ask:
What am I proud of?
What needs to shift?
Am I becoming the woman I want to be?

💡 As an Enneagram 3, I’ve always been wired to achieve — and for a long time, that meant shaping myself into whatever version I thought people would like best.

There are tables where it’s clear I’m not welcome — and that used to wreck me.
But at 40? I don’t do cliques. I don’t do shrinking or contorting to be accepted. 👀

I’ll always be kind. I’ll always be respectful. But I’m done dragging a chair to tables that were never built for me.

I’m moving over. Making space.
Creating my own table.
