A year or so ago, I was in Wal Mart and saw some disposable fountain pens and thought, “What a great idea!” I bought a package and went about my business until I needed some more a few months later. I went back to Wal Mart and there were none! I’ve been to several stores since, trying to find them, but they’re nowhere to be found. Should I try Office Depot or another office supply store? Why did they dissapear? Did they not catch on? Please, someone, help!

Fellow Office Supply Junkies: What is the best type of colored (anything but standard black, blue, red) pen?

I need a colored pen to use for book margin notes as I read and to underline text (rather than juggling a regular pen plus a highlighter). I am therefore looking for pens in colors that pop. Also, I will need to write small, so pens that smudge or drip would make my side note illegible.

Can someone please suggest a brand or type of ink that will give me what I’m looking for? Thanks! :)
