Bic Pen...Magic Markers... & Stylus... REVIEW

I know... I love pens!  I do...I do...I do.  Thank goodness it doesn’t take a lot of money to make me happy! Shoplet.com sent me a few items to review and I always feels so privileged to try products that I have never tried before.  Especially the huge variety of PENS in this world!!

Let me start off by tell you about this box of Bic Atlantis Retractable Exact Ball Point Pens.

I have a tendency to write large, so I love that is a fine point pen. The ink ran very smooth as my hand was able to glide without the tugging of ink and it didn't leave a smear when I rubbed my hand over the just written ink.  I did find it sorta awkward to get a good grip on this pen...but only because tend to write with the fingers gripped very close to the base of the pen, so I almost miss the rubbery part of the pen which would give me a good grip (that it just a me thing I'm sure).  There is also one more thing that I didn't like and that is the blue ink.   Never use it...so hopefully it also comes in different shades like purple, green, orange or pink!!

This is a box of the Bic Atlantis Retractable Comfort Ball Point Pen.
  

Now this particular box of pens is just a tiny bit different.  The one thing that already had me on its side was that they have black ink.  Yeah!!!!  It is a medium point pen and it continues to write very very smooth without any jerking and there was absolutely no smearing of ink!  I do not like smudges one little bit.  I had the same problem with the grip as before, but I promise that is a me thing!

My students loved these vibrant Bic Magic Window Markers



The bright fluorescent PINK and fluorescent YELLOW were almost too much for my first graders to take in!  I used them to write their name on our classroom window when they reached their reading goal.  It was like the world revolved around them when their name was finally written "for the world to see!!!"  These particular markers have bullet tips.  The water-based ink adhered very nicely to our classroom windows...nice & smooth!!!!   Then came the clean up...I do not like to clean up messes! However I used a wet cloth to clean the windows and it came off very easily.  I was impressed.  I will definitely be using these and other different colors to add a little more "POP" to my classroom.  




The last item I want to share with you today is the Bic Cristal Styles 2-in-1 PenI really liked the idea of this 2-in-1 Pen!!!!  I always have a pen in one of my hands and usually have my phone, iPad or Kindle nearby...so this makes perfect sense to me to have a pen and styles together!!!   I of course tried in on three of my things and the pen worked just fine.  It is very lightweight, glides easily across each of the screens (which would eliminate a few fingerprints...ha.ha.ha!!).  I love the look of this pen too.  Very modern.  It looks like a pens...thats all decked out for the evening.  Pretty!  I did have one slight problem when using it with my Kindle...apparently your hand as to be within "metallic section" to be able to use it with your technology.  It was a bit frustrating at first, but one I read the directions.. I was able to move only without any further issues.


Shoplet has a huge selection of products that I hope you will check out.  Please consider them next time you are ordering online, You will be amazed at the wide selection of office stationaryoffice supplies, medical supplies and their great promotional products.
