Writing is Fun!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have found a new family favorite pencil now that we have tried BIC® Velocity® Mechanical Pencils. They come packaged well in a very fun and eye catching cover. The colors of the pencils themselves are bright and vibrant, making them easy to find even in a large pencil pouch. These BIC® Velocity® Mechanical Pencils not only look good, but they write perfect as well! The lead is sharp and smooth. It really makes school work look much neater. The lead is sturdy and does not break as compared to others we have use. The eraser works great too which is definitely important to us. Love that we have found these and we will continue to use!

Not just for kids

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think that adults can have as much fun with these pencils as kids. I took a couple of the pencils to work because I use pencils almost every day. I found that the lead broke less often than with other mechanical pencils and if I needed to erase, there was no evidence that I had made a mistake! I had a co-worker ask me where I got my fun colored pencil and I told her it came from BzzAgent and then I gave her one...she was thrilled! These are definitely a high quality mechanical pencil and I would buy them not only for my kids but for myself as well, because they made work just a little more bright and fun.

Back To College

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am not writing this review based on a child's usage, I'm writing it on my own. As an adult going back to school to further my education, a good writing utensil is just as important to me as a school aged child.
I love how easy and smooth the BIC Velocity Mechanical pencil is. No more grey smudges on my pinky finger. No more smearing on the paper. I loved how dark the lead wrote and how colourful all the pencils are. My only complaint is I felt the eraser cap to be inconvenient. I often lost it on my desk or found it on the floor. Could be a choking hazard if not found!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these mechanical pencils and I usually don't care for them. I love the fact that they write smoothly and don't break so easily. Hooked for now.

Best pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It took me awhile to review. I didn't want to just jump into it. I really wanted to see what they could do. So far they are amazing. Not once has the lead brook like most do. I love the fact the pack comes with extra lead and erasers. When you write with this pencils it is a smooth writing experience. I recommend this to everyone. :) I have to say my fav one is purple. I know they are all the same BUT purple is always better.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids are thoroughly enjoying these pencils and requested more of them! They said they lead is so much smoother than other pencils I have bought for them for back to school in years past. The colors are cool too I've been told! These will definitely be the pencils I buy for them from now on.

Great, easy-to-use pencils with NO sharpener

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the Bic Velocity pencils as do my children. My 8-year-old daughter has never been able to use a mechanical pencil because she pushes too hard and breaks the lead all the time, trying to write darker. The Bic Velocity pencils allow her to not have to push so hard and yet write drak and very smoothly. She loves the bright colors and feels so grown up using a mechanical pencil, and I'm not constantly having to sharpen pencils for her. As a teacher, I have recommended these pencils to all my students as well!
