Review: Bold colors and bold lines - These pens come in cool colors, and they write very smooth and lay a nice thick line down. The are fun to use, and are priced low. They also dry quickly to avoid smudges.
Review: Nice, thick and smooth (the pens) - These thicker, 1.6mm ballpoint pens are extremely difficult to find. Shockingly, I originally found a multi-color 5 pack of these BIC Pens at a Dollar General Store near Pittsburgh. When I got back, I immediately went on desertcart to try and find them. Happily, I found them, but only in blue and none of the other colors. But, I will keep checking. Though I must admit that the other colored pens are nice, however did not write quite as smooth and thick as the blue and also seemed to smudge a little. After receiving them, my husband and daughter now know why I Love them, and never wanted to share until finding more to purchase.😊

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good old standard Bic
*by G***K on June 15, 2023*

I believe by now everyone knows the good old standard Bic! I buy these just to lay around the house because my husband loses every ink pen he touches. Great value for the money that way if they get lost you're not out much. Smooth writing and great flow of ink.
