Lol I had to laugh at this thread because I felt like I was the only one who suffered this dilemma - of being the mom who followed directions. Our hard to find item was 2 sharpie liquid pencils. I was stunned because if she was to have a pack of No. 2 pencils so what possibly could she need these for and who knew sharpie made pencils? I had to search it on my cell phone to make sure the teacher was not mistaken and then gasped at the price - a 2 pack ran as high as $9! I was shocked knowing my dd would surely lose these within a week or two. But we bought them to be in compliance and an extra pack so I could see what was so wonderful about these pencils. My findings - they write smoothly but certainly no different than the regular No. 2 pencils!
