Q: The packaging says 26 mechanical pencils, but when I examine the image, there are only 24. Where are the missing two?
submitted by Rmlowrie - 7 years ago
A: Sometimes graphic designers reuse images and modify them for advertising. The advertisement department of Target would be responsible for that mistake. Albeit a small mistake. The goal was to show mechanical pencils with the right amount number on it. They probably used an image of an earlier pack with 24. This makes sense from a desktop publisher view. Most average shoppers don't notice and the point is still made that the product is 26 pencils. However, If you see it in the store with 24 pencils yet advertised as 26 then it's outside of target's fault. You can bring this attention to the sales marketing or the help center at Target and point out the discrepancy.

I've always hated a scratchy pencil. It gives me feelings like nails on the chalkboard. I never used a pencil when I was little becuase of this. Of course now there are zillions of options, and I know which pencils I am comfortable with. I got this pencil free when I oredred my textbooks. I tested it today and yeesh! VERY SCRATCHY. I would not invest in this pencil. Sorry Bic.

BIC Mechanical pencils are great! I use them everyday. These pencils are very handy and you don't have to sharpen them. The only downside of Mechanical pencils are is the lead breaks very easily. Also They're different kinds of lead, so if you have to refill your pencil you have to get a certain type of lead. Mechanical pencils write very well on paper, the print comes out really well. On the bright side you don't have to sharpen the pencil.
Very good

I offered to get my high schooler some higher quality mechanical pencils, like the kind I use for drawing, but he wanted these. Great colors, lots of pencils, great value for the money. Perfect for schoolwork. Plus, you're not out much if they go missing. They must be decent pencils because I used the same ones at his age!
the best!!
