Dyson DC25 Pink Upright Vacuum

If you’ve been wanting to splurge on a Dyson vacuum, and its Patented Ball™ technology that steers smoothly with a flick of the wrist (talk about maneuverability), Root Cyclone™ technology that doesn’t lose suction when you vacuum (cleaner floors we have never seen) and its bagless lifetime HEPA and washable filter system (so no more expenses once you buy), we’ve got the justification you need this month. With every purchase of the limited edition DC25 upright vacuum model, Dyson Canada will be making a contribution to the CBCF’s breast cancer research efforts and will contribute $50,000 this year (impressively, the James Dyson Foundation has donated close to $2 million to breast cancer research worldwide). So if you didn’t get around to running for the cure this month, now you can clean for a cure instead. (Available at www.dyson.com.com, Best Buy, The Bay and Sears, $599.99)
