I bought mine with 40% off coupons. They ARE worth every penny!

I got mine on ebay. I got a whole set of 72 for about $35 and it included shipping.

Just do a search for prismacolor and you will find lots of different sets for sale.

Speaking of Prismacolor pencils, there is a special Prismacolor pencil sharpener. Don't delay, get yourself one. They are about four dollars at J's. I had a coupon 40% and got mine. I could not believe the difference it makes in trying tp sharpen your pencils. Glinda

I have tried all kinds of sharpeners....the only one I've LOVED is a battery operated one from Staples.
Just my $0.02 worth!!!

I bought a set of 72 with a 50% coupon at M's. Then i bought a few other colors when they go on sale. Mine came with a sharpener and it seems to work the best.

I used a coupon for the set, then I have bought them one at a time--certain colors I use a lot--red (Scarlet Lake?), an olive green, a black etc. Also got the sharpener--I love them every time I use them.!!

I bought mine on ebay. $47 for the 120ct plus $9 shipping, so $56 total, which is better than with a 40% off at Michael's!


I love mine!!

Ive bought two of the 120 tin sets on ebay with buy it now's for 55.00 a tin with 9.00 shipping.

that is about 1/3 the cost of buying them by the pencil ( around here they are 1.40 to 1.49 per pencils when sold without the tin at art stores...

Hi Lori:

I would be happy to send you some to try them out. I have a bunch of stubby ones and not-so-stubby ones. I'm always happy to enable someone else into the world of colored pencils! :)

Tonight I bought a pack of 36 with my 50% off coupon at Michaels. I wanted to get the larger count but it's not in the budget.
