[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just got these in the mail and so far I love them! They are comfortable to write with, very smooth writing and great erasing!! One of my biggest pet peeves is when the lead doesn't erase well! Looking forward to having my boys use these for school.

Bic has improved upon the mechanical pencil.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bic's new Velocity mechanical pencils are the update to outdated mechanical pencils that have been around forever. Every year parents buy mechanical pencils for their kids to take to school. Many even buy the disposable kind (what a waste!) Some parents try to eliminate waste by buying mechanical pencils with lead refills. My own Mother used to buy these for me. But then what happens is that you not only run out of lead, but your eraser wears down and eventually renders your pencil useless. You're left with lead refills and useless pencils. A pencil is completely useless without an eraser. You may as well be using a pen. So Bic has a solution to this problem. Velocity mechanical pencils come with eraser refills!! Overall, the Bic Velocity mechanical pencil is pretty great with a sleek clear appearance, nice colors, thick lead and nice erasers. The only complaint I had was that the pencil itself was a tad thick for my liking. But I have arthritic hands so this may not bother others. I will definitely choose to buy these over competitor mechanical pencils in the same price category.

Fun colors

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The colors were great! My kids thought they were very pretty And couldn't wait to use their favorite color. The only reason I got four stars was because of the eraser. When you go to erace something it pushes the lead out more. That was the only flaw I saw but that's a big flaw, and therefore my kids are constantly fighting with trying to keep the lead from coming out so much and breaking off. Pencils felt good in your hands and I love to do homework or doodling with them.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I received my bzz kit in the mail my kids were super excited to try the pencils. Once I let them open them and start using them they are amazing my kids really love them. They can't wait for school to start so they can use them everyday.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter and I were excited to get these and start using them in school, since we are both taking classes. They write smooth, they don't break as soon as you click them, they erase well. These pencils are fantastic!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these new BIC Velocity pencils. The lead is so dark and makes it ten times easier to see then normal mechanical pencils! They glide on the paper so smooth. We will be using these from now on!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think these new BIC VelocityÆ Original and Side Clic mechanical pencils are great! I'm not worried about them breaking in the bottom of a backpack or purse. They erase without leaving a mess. They write smoothly and the lead hasn't broken on me yet.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Being in college as an adult has its difficulties but having a great pencil to use while writing all those term papers makes it a little easier. BIC Velocity is my go to pencil for every assignment! This is also the only brand that my children want when school shopping every year! BIC Velocity writes better and is more comfortable to hold than most other mechanical pencils available! #BICVelocity #GotItFree love being a bzzagent
