Happy Kids

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids love mechanicsl pencils!!! Having different color options really help as well. Each kid gets certain colors so no blaming game if they are misplaced. It has strong led that writes smooth. My kids prefer mechanical and these have done well so far. They last about as long as a typical mechanical pencil but with the strong led there is less breakage. That also means purchasing led less often. All the way around, happy kids means happy mom.

Penpal- ahoy!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We received the BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils in the mail and my 8 year old son immediately decided to write to a good buddy who moved away. He loved the bright colors and the lead held up to his writing pressure. The lead is thick enough to keep from easily breaking and not pushing through the paper while thin enough to make a neat line for letter formation. I especially enjoy the continuous sharp point of a mechanical pencil and find myself reaching for them to write my grocery lists instead of a pen. We are enjoying the ability to share extra pencils and coupons with friends who are buying school supplies. We appreciate receiving these pencils for free to try in exchange for our review on Bzzagent. We will definitely seek these pencils out.

Awesome Mechanical Pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think these are probably the BEST mechanical pencils I have used in a LONG time! First, I am a pencil snob! I love the way these feel -- they have a very comfortable grip. They write very smooth. I have used these for several weeks without the lead breaking in the pencil. I have tried other brands only to have the led break within the pencil and then you end up throwing the led away because it keeps breaking. If you make a mistake- it erases easily. These are wonderful pencils. I bought a pack for each of my boys to start school this year-- and they too-- rave about these pencils! Thank you BzzAgent for letting me try these amazing pencils for Free!

Fantastic Find

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I waited until my teenager started back to school to help me out with the review because he has always preferred mecanical pencils over the #2 ones. After his first day of school he let me know that he would use these for the rest of his school years. My son could not believe that this was actually a pencil, from the click on top to the eraser on the bottom it was perfect. He loved how easily he could hold the pencil and how the lead did not break once he started writing.The tip looked like a pen and wrote as smoothly as one. His teacher said he would be able to take standardized tests with it because the lead was dark enough. He also noticed how the lead lasted longer because it was thicker and did not break as soon as the lead. touched the paper. This mechanical pencil gets an A+

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter was so excited she got to take these pencils to school and use. She even took some extras so she could share with her classmates. The quality of this product is good and is nice not having to wait in line to use a pencil sharpener. We will definitely be using a coupon to purchase more of these.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These BIC Velocity mechanical pencils are great. They write smooth and erase clean and easily. They are great for everyday writing and note taking. The kids like all the different colors they come in. This is the only pencil they choose for writing at school and home. I love them and the kids love them.

Is it a Pen or a Pencil?!?

Verified Purchase:No
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thanks to BzzAgent and BIC, I was able to try out these Velocity Mechanical Pencils for free. When you first pick it up, it feels very comfortable - I keep thinking that I picked up a pen instead of a pencil! It is very easy to use and the lead does not break as easily as other mechanical pencils I have used. So far, I am very happy with these pencils. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is because there are times when I need a pencil with a very sharp point, and this is not as sharp as a regular pencil, but overall, I am very happy with these!

Super colorful, super fun!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these new Bic Velocity pencils. They are so colorful, and fun to use in everyday notes! I love the fact they come with extra leads and erasers, it really makes them less of a disposable and more of a permanent pencil solution! The erasers erased cleanly and efficiently. All mechanisms on the pencil worked smoothly without fail! I gave my extra pack of pencils to my nephew for school, they work great for school work and are so convenient. The written word has lost so much meaning with all this technology, hopefully products like these encourage our young writers.
