The best of the best ..!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow, just in time for school shopping! I didn't get one pack, but two packs for free from BzzAgent! Making my list and checking it twice with #BICVelocity mechanical pencils. Our schools asks for several packs of sharpened #2 pencils... this year I rebel! I'm sending my kids armed with #BICVelocity mechanical pencils. No sharpening needed and each pack includes extra lead and refill erasers. I foresee lots of A+ work this school year! Yippee! I always run out of eraser well before the pencil wear out! Well down Bic for that. Ok let's get down to business, the pencils have a lovely feel when you write with them and have a wonderful dark colour to the writing so when I draw my plans up, I don't have to press hard to be able to see them, they are not particularly smudgy and the lads are easy to replace. All in all I'm pretty impressed with these. I have stuck some in my 16yr old's bag for school but we have another few weeks before he goes back so I'll have to see what he thinks of them then. The pack also includes 5 additional erasers and a container of 0.7 lead to use as replacements. I am happy that BIC included these additions as it will make my life so much more convenient. The pencil writes relatively smoothly. The eraser seems standard to me and erases most of my errors. This pencil uses 0.7 lead which is similar to a #2 mechanical pencil, which will be useful for my children to use in school. The fact that they don't have to keep sharpening a regular pencil will make their lives so much easier. My teenager already swiped from me one of the pencil packs to use for school! Overall, this is a nice set of handy and useful mechanical pencils.

Taking BIC back to school!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My boys were thrilled when the BIC Velocity pencils arrived, and they were just in time for school! I usually purchase the off brand of mechanical pencils for them, so they were excited to give them a try. First week of school was a success. They couldn't believe how strong the lead was and how it never broke like the other pencil brand. They told me I better buy BIC velocity pencils from now on! Sorry boys your Mom took some of them too! I love the smooth writing feel.

Premium pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are the most premium pencils. My teenagers love them. First, they come with extra lead that writes dark and smooth. Next the erasers do their job! They erase cleanly. Honestly with the more plastic mechanical pencils I don't expect much but these Bic Velocity mechanical pencils changed my mind and raised the bar! #gotitfree #sponsored

So Wonderful and So Close

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think these pencils are wonderful, my children really enjoy using them and they are easy to spot with the great bright colors. The multi pack had appropriate colors for my daughter's liking and for my son's liking. One little thing, and it's really a little thing, the eraser. While the eraser does a fantastic job of erasing the awesome lead, it's barely there and the little lid is beyond easy to misplace. Overall, the price is right for the excellent quality of the actual writing experience, you can't beat it. Also, the fact that the package comes with extra lead and erasers is above and beyond, it truly saves an extra trip later on. I personally love another brand that has the eraser built in with a twist up way to get more of the eraser out; however, I feel a bit like I have to take out a small loan to afford multiples of that brand of pencil. So the quality of the BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencil has won me over, the lead really does write more smoothly than the other brand I was using. The lead has great dark color but is smooth to write with, yet it does erase so nicely! This is a wonderful pencil and so close to perfect.

Works great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like these mechanical pencils so much that I don't want to share them with my kids. But of course I did. They are great for homework times, don't have to worry about having a sharpened pencil. The eraser also works great so that is one less thing to worry about them losing. The colors help make homework time more fun. It's almost rewarding to pick your favorite color.

Sooooo Smooth

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter loves mechanical pencils. She was super excited when we got the Velocity pencils. My daughter uses hers every day. I love them , they write so smooth. the pencils just roll off the paper. I especially enjoyed having extra erasers and lead. I think these are way better then other mechanical pencils by far. The others break all the time. They don't write smoothly. For now on we will only be purchasing the Bic Velocity pencils every year.
