Feeling the Velocity!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I first want to say that I am particular about what I write with. When I find a writing instrument that I like, I stick with it. I also use pencils a lot because I work with numbers everyday. I also always use a mechanical pencil when I need to use a pencil. Well let me just say that I have fallen in love with the Bic Velocity mechanical pencil!! The Velocity writes as smooth as a pen. It just flows across the paper. And if I just happen to make a mistake, well not to worry. I can erase the mistake as if it never happened. I like the ease and completeness of the eraser. I also love the fact that if comes with the refills for both the lead and the eraser. No more guessing if I have the correct size lead and an eraser that is going to work. I highly recommend the Velocity. I made sure that my son had them in his backpack on the first day of school. Anything to make school easier!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My girls were so excited for these bic Velocity pencils to arrive, they love to use mechanical pencils. They found them to be comfortable to write with and the leads were strong. They found their handwriting to be much neater. I used one to write a birthday card and was pleasantly surprised how neat and smooth my experience was. Big thumbs up.

These Were A Big Hit!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kid were so excited to use these once they discovered that they were not pens and in fact pencils! I heard things like cool and neato and awesome. I left each one pick their favorite color pencil and off they went to draw with them. All of my kids really loved these mechanical pencils. My oldest daughter really liked how smooth they were whens she was drawing. My middle daughter liked the fact that she didn't have to press hard to erase and it erased completely without smudges. My youngest which is my son really liked them because they did not break from pressing too hard. Since my kids loved them so much i actually gave one of them a try. I have to say i agree with my children but for different reasons. These seem to be a bit thicker than usual mechanical pens and it made it easier to grip. They were also much more comfortable to write with for an extended period of time. I was unable to break the point and the lead didnt go back in like some other brands. The eraser and lead really does erase clean and i there were not any little lead pieces laying around. My kids and I also thought it was awesome that they come with eraser refills AND lead refills. Sometimes when the eraser is done for there is no point in keeping the pencil if you have to always hunt for an eraser. So overall everyone here loves these! These will be in my kids backpack with the start of the new school year as requested by my kiddos. They not only motivated my children to write but got me to try them out too!

Velocity Review
on August 10, 2016

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these pencils!! I am a teacher who is always looking for a newly sharpened pencil at my desk or when I go to other classrooms. This pencil lets me always have a sharpened pencil. Plus it comes with extra lead AND extra erasers?! That has always been a draw back of a mechanical pencil, having to throw one away because you can't find the eraser to keep the lead in the pencil or to erase with. These are a much nicer mechanical pencil at a great price!

My own writing

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I know that the kids are super stoked to get these and try them out but I wanted to put them to the test myself so I could find out first hand what everyone was raving about. I decided since there is all that debate on whether they should keep cursive teaching in schools that I would practice my cursive and show my children how beautiful it could be. So I wrote a page of just words and found that the pencil is very precise. It was also comfortable to hold. The led was super strong and did not break on me once. It was definitely an advanced pencil and so I stashed it away so I could have it all to myself.

Long lasting! Clean Erase! Super Fun!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These colorful pencils really motivated all of us to write and draw! My kids thought they were pens because of their colors and size. While the colors make it fun to use them, these pencils are a bit thicker in roundness which makes it easier for little fingers to grip. I found that the older kids were able to write and draw for longer periods of time because their fingers are not hurting. My kids love these pencils because they respond really well to pressure without breaking. They were especially wowed by how well the lead erased. They didnt have to press hard and use alot of eraser to get things gone and they noticed! The last thing that made my kids and i happy was the fact that this pack of Bic mechanical pencils comes with additional lead and erasers, not that you will need them often. The lease didn't break or go back inside everytime pressure was applied. We will be getting more of these for back to school supplies!

BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We were so excited to receive these fun, colorful pencils from BzzAgent, though my daughters were not excited that I made them share a couple with me! :) They especially liked the colors, and the case with the extra lead and erasers. They liked it because it was cute" and "neat." I liked it because one thing I usually do not enjoy about mechanical pencils is running out of eraser
