Is this my new fave thing??

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received two packs of Bic velocity mechanical pencils for free from Bic. I was sent them to try them and write an unbiased opinion. I write all day. I'm a scheduler for a major hospital. I adore my paper mate mechanical pencils. I was so excited when I got my Bic pencils in the mail. They are a little thicker with a rubbery finger area. A cap for the eraser and came with extra lead. Awesome fun colors. I love the thickness of the mechanical pencil. I like how hard I can write and not break the lead. I like how dark the .7 lead is as well. Cons. The eraser is worthless. I have been hoping maybe I had to break it in. No. I've been using this for almost a week, and it doesn't erase. Just rubs and smears. Bad. Terrible. Would I buy them? Yes I have a bunch of coupons for my kids for school! If I had the choice between my beloved yellow paper mate and the new Bic velocity. I'm sorry to say i will continue with paper mate. If it had a better eraser I would switch! Thank u for sending my the pencils to try Bic velocity!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter is a pencil hoarder. She loves these pencils. I will most likely buy her some more for the school year.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter has been using these pencils, mainly for drawing. She loves the comfy grip, says the eraser works well, and she says the leads breaks less than other mechanical pencils she has tried. Big hit! Will definitely buy these for school!

The best mechanical pencil I have ever tried!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pencils are awesome! Being a home school mom, I am always watching my kids gets frustrated while doing their school work. Most mechanical pencils have constantly breaking lead and the lead either seems too short or too long. The BIC pencils seem just right. The tip looks like a ball point pen and gives the lead strength. There is a rubber comfort grip that is very comfortable to use. The lead writes smooth and dark but the eraser erases with ease. I also love the fact that they come with 12 extra lead and 5 erasers! I would highly recommend this item. ?#?BICVelocity? ?#?GotItFree?

Love the BIC Velocity

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The grips are wonderful and the smooth lead doesn't smear making them wonderful for everything from note taking to test taking. I use them around the house for making shopping list and writing recipes. My husband has even claimed 2 of them for his college classes even though he had just bought pencils.

Great quality!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are awesome pencils! Bic mechanical pencils are always of the highest standard and the new Velocity pencils are great as well. I took a pack of these pencils with me to work and let a few of my coworkers use them. They all said what great quality these pencils were. The points don't break easily and the erasers erase cleanly. My 16 year old son has been using them and has actually put a few aside to take with him when school starts. I love that these pencils come with the refills of lead and erasers. That is my biggest issue when it comes to mechanical pencils and that has been solved with this new pencil.

Love this new mechanical pencil design

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The fact that these mechanical pencils can retract like a regular click pen is amazing. You may not think much of the fact at first, but how many mechanical pencil leads do you blow through with the old pencils with super fine lead? Not only do they break when you're writing just a little too hard, but they constantly break in your backpack, purse or desk drawer as you rifle around in it. This pencil is heavy duty! Plus, the erasers actually work and fully erase what you want it to. The grip is comfortable, colors are bright - great design!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] i am happy that they have made a pencil a little bit thicker and the lead stronger. the lead breaking all the time is very annoying so its nice that the lead in this pencil is stronger. the bright colors are pretty and i can spot them easily. the comfort grips stop the pencil from digging into my fingers which is a plus!
