I just got done buying them at the Target in Gaithersburg (DD will be starting K in the fall). They are by a company called Ticonderoga. Target sells a 4-pack (annoying since only 6 were requested and all the rest of the amounts lined up perfectly with the packaging available!) that includes a sharpener. They were not in the special Back to School section, however, even though the sticker in the regular aisle, which is where I ultimately found them, indicated they were doubly located.


OP again. I saw that as well. Those pencils are just about $0.75 a piece. The fat pencils at the school box came 12 to a pack for $4.50. Those ended up about $0.38 a pencil. No way will she need 12 pencils for the school yr (I hope), but we will use a few at home as well. I might also give a few to a neighbor as well. I did not buy them from Target when I did the math on the cost.






I object to your using the word "fat" and am offended that you do so. Could you use oversized, big, or large instead?


Sorry PP. The package actually said fat. I'll call the manufacturer for you.

That would be me b/c I think the sarcasm on this board is overrated. I get it but I think it's beyond stupid.
