The read
What's actually worth knowing.
- Each pencil holds as much lead as 2.5 wooden pencils, so the pack is meant to last through a full school semester without running out.
- The lead doesn't smudge and works for both left and right-handed writers, which matters if you're taking notes or doing assignments that need to stay clean.
- You can refill the lead and eraser as they wear down instead of throwing out the whole pencil, though you'll need to buy replacement lead and erasers separately.
As of Aug 30, the BIC Xtra Smooth Bright Edition Mechanical Pencils is a good price at $7.44 — versus a $8.90 typical price and a $3.09 12-month low, based on Amazon's own price history.
