It's time to go school supply shopping. For some reason I feel like buying some nice pens... nothing too expensive, less than $5 per pen preferably. Can anyone suggest some neat pens that write smoothly and are comfortable to hold? The parker vector looks nice. Thanks!

P.S. Anyone know of a cheap online-store to buy supplies from? Or would I be better of just visiting staples?

G2's. Can't remember who exactly makes them though.

Cheap 10 for $1 Bic pens. My personal favorite for writing, as they are cheap and you won't cry when someone steals it off your desk. For pen twirling in class, I switch to the Pentel RSVP pen, excellent balance.
 

My favorite pens are Bic Velocity. They're cheap, have a rubber grip, and are just what I need to write an in-class essay.

Love those. I think Pilot makes them.

Yep, it's a pilot. That was the best pen I found on the floor at school last year! :)

I've used the Bic Round Stic Mediums for years. Can't beat $1 for a box of 12. They last a long time, too. :D
