Ballpoint Pen Deals & Offers

Quality lately has been downhill

Bought white before and looks "cheap" compared to other colours. :/

Better spend a little more for all-metal one.

Black is £4.99, white is £4 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Parker-Jotter-Ball-Point-Pen-Black-Blue-Red-White-Steel-Black-Blue-ink/191156782476?hash=item2c81d5058c:m:myXCtOqxM7BW8C0oB_6YI7A

Quite a few companies used to give out these pens as promotional items. I have about a dozen of them with various names printed on them, including a couple of insurance companies.

Now £8.98 (highfive)

Straight to the point (y)

I agree with the person above. My Dad used to use these for work, and they would all end up lidless and the ink would go blobby or dry up. I think they were provided by his work though I might add.

I don like these ones. Tried thema few times to save a few pence but the ink flow is terrible. They also scracth teh paper and feel like the ball is rough or misplaced. The tube is really brittle and the brea leaving bits all sharp plastic aboout the place. The cap on teh end is weak and if you are like me and some times chew your pen then youre goona get bist in your teeth. Normal folk will be fine with the £3 alternatives. Ham fisted chewers like me need bics.

These are £3.01: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Stylostik-Black-Pens-Pack-Biros/dp/B008TQKIXG

4pk for £1.99 at b&m

Now back in stock again (y)

Back in stock

£1.00 in the pound shop

Just spotted these too at £1.84 per pack. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B076DQZ57S/ref=psdcmw_3082218031_t3_B07KCKCGGL

£2 in Poundland if you can get to a store, saw these in Argyle Street, Glasgow a few days ago and made it into a Deal post right before COVID-madness took off. Bic actually have quite good feedback for their cartridge blades, if badgerandblade are to be believed.

Ken I used to call them bits. Cos they leave your bits in bits (lol) (lol)

Isnt BIC now indriectly owned by Gillette/ AKA P & G ?

(cheeky)

Always found a blunt spoon did a better job than a bic! They should stick to pens.

No good if you get "lines" Then!

Average ballpoint pen writes around 900m so you're right in thinking it's low. XD https://blog.penvibe.com/how-far-will-a-ballpoint-pen-write/

Is 600 metres a lot? Sounds very low for a pen.... Not that I've compared (lol)

Same price at Tesco and Wilko

The real deal is in the comments.

24 pack £3.50 https://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/bic-kids-kid-couleur-felt-tip-colouring-pens-24-pack-350-prime-449-np-at-amazon-3467514

Ordered. Thank you

That's a deal...

Yep, so this is old and perhaps dried up stock. One of the reviews suggests so

Doesnt sound good. I’ve give this one a miss!

Paid £8 2 weeks back

It has new box design now. It doesnt look like the one on the website.

I wouldn’t so I’d probably miss that the deal is available from tomorrow.

Are they sharp? Would the kids be safe with them

Got 30 for £8 in Tesco a few days back? 24 fine 6 ultra fine

Heat <3

"Airplane safe" but they won't deliver to NI (mad) (mad) (mad) (mad)

Use these at work on a daily basis. Highly recommended!

'Airplane safe'. Mid-flight brainstorming session back on. My last set were deemed a flight risk by security.

Nice one! I can start colouring in these album covers ;) https://www.thecolouringsessions.com/

Thank you for your contribution thats very helpful (y)

Your welcome (y)

Thanks for this deal

Staedtler are fabulous pens. But then German pens are all fantastic to use. Schneider, Stabilo etc. Mind so are the Japanese pens Pentel especially - perhaps even better (but twice the price - at least)

If it bleeds, we can kill it

30 for £8 in Tesco at the moment so voted cold

Tesco currently have 30 for £8 https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/300446359

These bleed

Somehow I'm not convinced re the RRP of £34.99. It's the same price in Argos, without any delivery charge to pick up. https://www.argos.co.uk/product/8582805?clickSR=slp:term:sharpie:1:5:1

If your finding it difficult and haven’t found a solution Google’s Jamboard may be a good alternative at this time so you can get your fix

Fab thank you. This will come in very handy when I am homeschooling my son. Heat from me

Nope

Is it magnetic? Thanks!

Had to collect my 'desk' yesterday, found my board well used by those that were in the office. I get a ribbing for having it, but its surprisingly popular with my team :)
