Bic has improved upon the mechanical pencil.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bic's new Velocity mechanical pencils are the update to outdated mechanical pencils that have been around forever. Every year parents buy mechanical pencils for their kids to take to school. Many even buy the disposable kind (what a waste!) Some parents try to eliminate waste by buying mechanical pencils with lead refills. My own Mother used to buy these for me. But then what happens is that you not only run out of lead, but your eraser wears down and eventually renders your pencil useless. You're left with lead refills and useless pencils. A pencil is completely useless without an eraser. You may as well be using a pen. So Bic has a solution to this problem. Velocity mechanical pencils come with eraser refills!! Overall, the Bic Velocity mechanical pencil is pretty great with a sleek clear appearance, nice colors, thick lead and nice erasers. The only complaint I had was that the pencil itself was a tad thick for my liking. But I have arthritic hands so this may not bother others. I will definitely choose to buy these over competitor mechanical pencils in the same price category.

Changed my mind about mechanical pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have to admit, before trying these pencils, I was skeptical. As an English teacher and mom of 7, I haven't had a very positive view on mechanical pencils. The lead breaks easily and leaves a mess all over the table and I feel like I am always buying need lead. BUT... these BIC Velocity pencils have changed my mind about mechanical pencils. The lead is extremely sturdy and holds up to children who like to press hard while writing. The product, the kids' writing is neat and clean, not smudgy! And, no broken lead all over my table! I love it. The kids love it too because I normally wouldn't ever buy them mechanical pencils but these pencils have me giving mechanical pencils a second chance. I would definitely purchase these and know with confidence that my kids are writing with a sturdy, dependable pencil.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The BIC velocity pencils are practical, well made and sturdy. My kids have already claimed them all and have enjoyed using them. We love that they come with extra erasers and lead. They leave a clean paper behind.

Favorite new pencil

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My 15yr old was so excited about these Bic Velocity mechanical pencils. She loves to draw and she does a lot of it. She gets a lot out of these pencils with the refills. The eraser is the best I've seen with mechanical pencils. She likes the different colors. She was so excited I couldn't even get a picture of them before she tore the package open. My favorite part is that she can use them for school and not have to use a different pencil for tests. #GotItFree #BicVelocity
