The read
What's actually worth knowing.
- You advance the lead by clicking the eraser, so there's no separate button to worry about.
- The lead is supposed to write dark and erase cleanly without smudging, which matters if you're doing a lot of writing or test-taking.
- These come pre-loaded with lead and never need sharpening, so they're ready to use right out of the pack.
As of Aug 30, the BIC Xtra-Smooth Mechanical Pencils with Erasers is a good price at $2.74 — versus a $3.03 typical price and a $1 12-month low, based on Amazon's own price history.
