[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received these pencils and I thought they were great for the kids since school is right around the corner, but after one use I have fallen in love with these pencils. They write very smoothly and if you are anything like me and grip your pencil very tight the extra cushioning really helps. I highly recommend these pencils for people in school or just on a regular basis.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pencils are well worth the money. They write smooth. Normally my major gripe with mechanical pencils is the lead is easy to break. These pencils have not had that problem yet. Me and my kids have been using for a couple of weeks now and we love them. This will be our pencil of choice from now on.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils are a huge hit with our 11 year old daughter. She only uses mechanical pencils and is very particular with which pencils she likes. I gave her a pack of the Velocity Pencils to take to school. Her first day home she was loving the soft flexible grip the pencil had. Her go to mechanical pencil does not have this and she has to use a pencil gripper which doesn't always stay on.

Smooth as silk

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These mechanical pencils are amazing. The lead never gets caught on the paper ripping holes and the erasers work very well. Most of the time with Mechanical Pencils I find that the erasers do not fully remove mistakes but these work great. These are now our go to pencils at homework time and for me when I am making one of my many lists.

My daughter is happy...

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter, who will be going to high school in September, has NEVER allowed me to buy her regular, wooden pencils. She ALWAYS insisted on mechanical, but they are so much more expensive. SO, I would buy them at the dollar store. Unfortunately, I found out quickly that the plastic broke easily or the lead was always breaking, or there was hardly any lead in them, she always either needed more lead or new pencils. This in turn cause me to buy more and more dollar store mechanical pencils. So this summer, BIC Velocity came to my door from bzzagent, and she has been using them on her summer school work. So far, she has used just 1 pencil...YES, JUST 1!!! I swear, it has lasted long enough to get her through multiple assignments thus far. She has not complained about the lead constantly breaking while she is writing and the plastic is very durable. I finally had that aha moment that if you buy QUALITY that may cost a little more, you find that it will result in more savings in the long run. BYE BYE dollar store mechanical pencils, HELLO BIC VELOCITY. You will be spending the next 4 years in high school with my daughter! Now only if they can help her with her math work...lol.

Bic mechanical pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids loved the colors the pencils came in. The pencils write so smooth. Another thing i like about them is the eraser it actually erases everything and does not leave a smudge like other mechanical pencils. And they have a smooth soft grip. The leads are strong they do not keep breaking like other mechanical pencil leads. And anplus id they came with extra leads and erasers. My kids loved these pencils. We will be buying some soon.
