X-ACTO Electric Pencil Sharpener Giveaway

Posted on by Frankye

Update: We got a lot of great entries in the X-ACTO Electric Pencil Sharpener Giveaway, and now we have our winner! Congratulations to Holly!

I should win this pencil sharpener because I am in a newly created classroom that does not have a pencil sharpener. At this point I will have to either have to win this contest, find the nearest classroom that has one, or buy one myself. I have been trying all summer to win a pencil sharpener and have come up empty handed in that department each time so hopeful this time it will be different…Come to think of it, I do have a clock either. Oh well, I wonder what other things that I have forgot. We will soon see with school starting in just over a week.

Enjoy your new pencil sharpener, Holly! Everyone else, head on over to our new Avery HI-LITER Giveaway! Don’t miss your chance to win three dozen pink, green and yellow highlighters!

“If you need a quality chair at an affordable price this might be the chair for you.”
basyx® VL601 Series Managerial Mid-Back Leather Chair I just wanted to write a quick review on this chair that I purchased over the internet. I am currently working in Afghanistan as a contractor and was in desperate need of a new chair for my office. The process to purchases this chair was easy and user friendly. It only took about a week to arrive and was very easy to put together, only taking maybe 15 minutes to do so and tools were included. The chair is very comfortable and seems to be pretty durable. The leather seems to be of a high quality and I am sure it will hold up quite well over here. My boss likes it so much that he is going to order one for himself as well. So if you need a quality chair at an affordable price this might be the chair for you.

“I have had this chair for going on 5 years now and I couldn’t be more pleased with my purchase.” 
I have had this chair for going on 5 years now and I couldn’t be more pleased with my purchase. The pieces were surprisingly simple to put together and the compact size of it fits well in my medium sized room. The chair is still as comfortable as when I first bought it however, on a down note, one of the arms has become loose, I have tried tightening the screw but I think the hole is rounded so it just keeps spinning without tightening. This started about a year ago. Other than that I have had no other problems with this chair. All of the features still work perfectly, the one thing I was originally worried about was quality of the leather and would it hold up over the years. My chair has been used very heavily and has endured 3 moves over the last 3 years and to date not a single hole, tear, or rip. What can I say, for the price it has exceeded my expectations.

All that & free shipping to boot! It’s easy to see why so many of our customers think the basyx® VL601 Series Managerial Mid-Back Leather Chair is the best leather office chair online!
