Bags of jiffy bag envelopes

Advantages: padds some fragile goods
Disadvantages: not suitable for glass

...received a DVD in a jiffy bag recently opened the bag carefully and put the bag ready to reuse with about 20 other old jiffy bags I have ready for recycling. Actually I am not sure that all of them are genuine jiffy bags but they are the same sort of thing. Jiffy bags made by Jiffy have been available for several years now I think they go back to the 1950’s. Jiffy bags are handy padded envelope bags that can be bought in a variety of sizes some ...

Review of Jiffy Padded Bag Envelopes

The Magic of Pilot FriXion

Advantages: A pen that you can erase
Disadvantages: None

...matches the pen and has pilot and frixon ball written in silver. The pen comes in a variety of colours, eight in all. My Opinion I love doing puzzles and I am always on the lookout for a pen that would help me that. I saw this pen in WH Smiths one day and thought that’s a good idea but I wonder if it works. So I went to the till pen in hand and purchased it, once I got it home I opened the packet and gave it a little test. So I got a scrap of paper ...
...over and as instructed I rubbed the silver end over the pen and was amazed at what I saw. The pen just disappeared, there were no marks left on the paper. So after I did my scribble test I tested it on other things like puzzle books and writing lists. It writes easily and has a good colour to it, no matter what paper I use it still disappears when rubbed. It is comfortable to hold too, I hate it when a pen makes your hands sore especially when you’re ...

Review of Pilot FriXion Rollerball Pen with Eraser and Rewriter Tip

The Market Leader but there is competition.

Advantages: Long lasting ink capacity.
Disadvantages: Expensive and difficult to grip.

...cheaper than some of the Stabilo Boss range and pretty much do the same job. The cheaper ones may have a tendency to not last as long as Stabilo Boss ones so the exception to my opinion above may be if you do a tremendous amount of highlighting. Someting that I do not like about the Stabilo Boss is the shape and design of it. I have always found the shape very difficult to grip and quite slippery to hold plus the lid doesn't fit that quickly or ...

Review of Stabilo Boss Highlighters

An everyday stick pen

Advantages: seems to write well
Disadvantages: none

...stationary drawer and discovered several staedtler stick pens. Steadtler 430 m stick pens are available in Blue, red, black and green ink. These pens are as you can see from the picture have a clear plastic shaft/barrel , This is 13cm long, just less than a cm in diameter. The shaft is a hexagon with 6 straight sides this is good as it mean the pen does not easily roll of the table. You can see the ink through the plastic, its not easy to distinguish ...
...end of the pen is a coloured stopper at the other a strong metal ball point nib. There is a plastic lid which has a clip on it so you can clip it onto the edge of your paper or jacket pocket. This lid is coloured to match the ink. This lid is also ventilated to make it safer if it gets swallowed I guess. These stick pens seem quite good. I can not tell you exactly how long they would last , but mine seem to last a long time writing lots . I have ...

Review of Staedtler 430 Stick Ball Pen

Never be without a Stabilo Swing Cool Highlighter!

Advantages: Price, Colour, Size
Disadvantages: No Refills, can be hard to find in shops

...has done this is the Stabilo Swing Cool Highlighters. I have found that the small size of these highlighters has made them a nice addition to my pencil case and my desk. I personally use the yellow highlighter most, but the other colours are just as good. I normally pay around 99p each per highlighter, though you can buy them in packs which would be cheaper. I often do work whilst travelling on trains/coaches, where you often don't have much space, ...
...shirt pocket etc. One thing I would like to see would be refills, like you can for other Stabilo highlighters, which would make these highlighters even more cost effective. In conclusion, I would really recommend Stabilo Swing Cool Highlighters to anyone who wants a decent sized highlighter. ...
