It’s hard to believe that summer is almost over and the first day of school is just around the corner. It’s time to start shopping for back to school supplies! Our school sends out a list of supplies needed for each student for each grade. We always buy what is requested but my kids have other items they want as well such as gel pens and mechanical pencils. Bic has a great selection!
My daughter is a lefty so smearing can be an issue. BIC Gel-ocity pens dry up to 3 times faster than average to help eliminate this problem. They come in lots of fun colors in 3, 4 or 8 packs. They have a comfort grip, write super smooth and best of all, they’re retractable so ink won’t leak onto clothing or backpacks when the pens are not in use.
My kids also favor mechanical pencils. Bic Velocity Max is a great option. I especially love the 75% wider eraser! These also have a soft gel grip for comfort and write smooth and dark. With #2 lead, these pencils can be used for standardized tests and erase cleanly. You can find these in a 2 pack for a suggested retail price of $6.79 which includes refill lead and erasers.
Other new supplies from BIC include:
- BIC 4-Color is now available with 3 inks and 1 pencil for efficient writing.
- BIC Fineliner has a precise tip is great for doodling and coloring.
- BIC Soft Feel provides the ultimate writing comfort with its soft-feel barrel.
- BIC Atlantis is a classic ballpoint that comes in pink or purple with black ink.
