Bic Back to School Review and Giveaway

**This review shared from Amanda from the blog Open Hands. Read her review, then enter the giveaway below. **



Have your kids gone back to school yet? Our oldest started school this year, we are homeschooling and we began 2 weeks ago. He is loving every second of it! One of the things that got him really excited about school were the great supplies we were sent by BIC.

Bic products are obviously a tried and true company! I remember when I was in school going 'Back to School shopping' and loving stocking up on Bic lead pencils :) Let me just say that remembering what the pencils were like then...they have come a long way! I remember them all being black with different colored clips on the front. Now the whole pencil is a fun color!! I also remember that I was always breaking my lead, so I honestly thought our 4 1/2 yr old wouldn't be able to use these this year. I thought with him still learning to write he would get really frustrated at the lead breaking constantly. However, he has not once broke the lead on his pencils and he has been using these pencils everyday since we got started!! He also really loves the erasers that we were sent, and so do I , they have a great little grip on them and they work really well!!

I was also sent some great pens by Bic, these I kept for myself ;-) And I love them! I think I stated this once before in a previous post, but I am picky when it comes to ink pens. I like a nice smooth write, these pens are fabulous and I love the fun vibrant colors that they come in.

These are all of the products I was sent:

• BIC Velocity® Bold Fashion Ball Pen, 8-Pack, Suggested Retail Price (SRP) $6.99  
• BIC Cristal® Bold Fashion Ball Pen, 10-pack, SRP $2.19  
• BU3 Grip Fashion Ball Pen, 8-pack, SRP $3.69

• BIC Atlantis® Fashion Mechanical Pencil, 4-pack, SRP $6.49  
• BIC Clic Matic® Mechanical Pencil in Fashion Colors, 4-pack, SRP $3.70



And one of you will win the same pack, just fill out the entry form below for your chance to win!! I will leave this open until Monday Sept 10th! (this is just a few days after my scheduled c-section so please be extra patient with me if it takes a couple extra days to announce the winner). This giveaway is open to residents of the US only.
