Ready for school

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I shared a set of pencils with my nephews who are ready to start school this fall. They were thrilled with the colors and ready to tear open the package immediately. When they took the pencils out, they were ready to go and drawing at once. The adults were thrilled this inspired the kids to have some nice drawing quiet time with reliable supplies.

I'm surprised I like these pencils!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don't usually use mechanical pencils because they aren't as smoothe or dark as regular pencils, these are definitely the exception. They are very smoothe when writing and the eraser actually erases and did not smear! I'm definitely going to switch to Velocity pencils!

Best Pencil

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think the Bic Velocity mechanical pencils is by far the best mechanical pencils around right now. I currently use pencils to write notes and to work on my ever changing household budget spreadsheet and these pencils make my life so easy.
The comfort grip at the tip of the pencil is actually very comfortable and feels natural when I hold it. The lead is thick and does not break when I am in the middle of writing a word like I experience with a lot of other pencils. It is also super easy to erase mistakes and you do not see residue of other things that you erased. I am definitely going to get some more of these pencils for my kids to use for school.

long lasting

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I usually use a regular old pencil since all the mechanical pencils I've used just weren't good. Trying the new Bic velocity mechanical pencil was a good experience. I had to take notes in my contemporary math class & used the Bic velocity, not only did it write dark but the lead didn't break. The only thing I would change is the thinness of the lines. I don't know if this would effect how well the lead doesn't break but I like a thinner line. Other than that it held up well & the eraser didn't crumble into bits when used.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are great! I love how they feel in my hand. They are colorful, write very smoothly and the dark. It is like writing with a No.2 pencil. My kids loved the colors these came in and I like that extra lead and erasers came with them.
