I Love Cheap Pens

I have a lifetime supply of pens. They might be cheap pens, but I have a few boxes full of them. It comes from a lifetime of collecting pens. Some people collect postcards. Some people collect movies. Some people even collect cloths. Not me. I collect cheap pens. I used to go to Walgreen's during the weeks leading up to the first day of school. During this time period, the store would have a circular available in their store with a coupon for pens. These were a 10-pack of Bic pens, either blue or black. The coupon said "Limit 4." So I would cut out the coupon and buy for packs of pens for thirty nine cents each - and this was 2005, not 1905. So i kept going back into the store to get more packs of pens. I did this several times and I continued it for a couple of years at the beginning of school days. Out of the hundreds I've collected, I've probably usedn 10 of them. I suppose it's just nice to know that they're theref I need them.
