What's the point?

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I must start by saying, it was pretty cool to have the chance to try out these new Pencils before others got the chance to. I decided to get a little help from my kids and niece and nephew that are in school, to see what they thought about the Pencils. I did like that when writing with the Velocity Pencils the writing was very smooth and easy to erase when needed. The fact that the Pencils come with extra erasers and lead is definitely an added bonus. The only downside to writing with these Pencils is if you aren't careful the leads break easily which is something that honestly would happen with any brand. Overall i would definitely suggest these to others and I do plan to use my coupons considering they are reasonably priced.

Very nice pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these pencils. The lead writes nice and fluid and has a clean look. The pencils themselves have beautiful bold colors. My kids have been using them for school and I'm really impressed with how strong the lead is. Usually my children use too much pressure to use mechanical pencils and the lead breaks. I'm over all very satisfied with these pencils.

Colorful Mechanical Fun

from Manchester, NH
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My stepson was thrilled to see these before school started as he was actually excited to go back this year! I asked if he wanted only certain colors but he wanted them all to be put in his pencil case. Now that school has officially started, these are his go to pencils from his case. Plus, this is the first year we've allowed him to have mechanical pencils so he is just loving them! Some of the other kids have said they liked the colors and have asked to borrow a couple times, so I take that as a good thing! He has commented on the ease of writing and of course not needing a sharpener!

Excited to do homework

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter was very excited when the package arrived. She could not wait to start using these pencils (good thing she had homework over the summer). She is very picky about mechanical pencils. She LOVES these. She says they write very well and the lead does not break like on some pencils she's had in the past. She even made me buy another package when we bought her BTS supplies.

The Go To Pencil for Everything
on September 9, 2016

from Walnut, CA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are absolutely the number one, go-to pencil that everyone reaches for in our house. Colorful so you won't lose them at the bottom of a drawer, thick lead that doesn't snap after every number, and smooth, clear eraser that doesn't leave a mark. The barrels are nice to grip, don't hurt your hand, and we basically don't need any other writing implements in our house. From the middle schooler to the attorney, we all love them. Whether we're drawing or balancing our checkbook so, these are the best!

Bic Velocity Mechanical Pencils
on September 9, 2016
Posted by: Lcamille
from Ingleside, TX
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've used quite a bit of mechanical pencils and can't say I can tell any difference. The one pet peeve I have with pencils is when the eraser doesn't really erase everything. Some of these Bic Velocity Mechanical Pencils worked great but United a few of them didn't. They left that dreaded black smudge across the paper or no smudge but you can still faintly see what it was you were erasing, defeating the purpose. I gave a few to my kids to take to school and they had the same problem. The lead container wasn't very easy to open either.

Best Mechanical pencils
on September 9, 2016
Posted by: Honeybee421
from Canton, GA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son said the BIC velocity mechanical pencils are the absolute best! He likes the bright colors they come in and the easy to hold grip. He says they write so smoothly but most of all he likes that the lead is thicker and much more durable then the regular mechanical pencils he had tried before. The lead isn't breaking off all the time now. We are so glad he got the opportunity to try BIC velocity pencils for free because now we know how great they are and will make sure he always has some for school!
