Customers were offered pink punch, cookies iced with the pink breast cancer awareness ribbon, and other edible treats. Every Friday during the month of October, customers who purchased Breast Cancer Awareness Stamps were entered into a drawing. The prizes were items that the employees had made, donated, or arranged for others to donate.

When asked what her secret was to such astronomical sales, she replied, "I just ask the customer if they would like to purchase them."

The highlight of the event was everyone's enthusiasm for having them hair sprayed pink to show breast cancer awareness solidarity.
