Hand writing becoming ancient history

My boomer mother in law is one of the last examples left from the old world. Where school prioritized teaching kids to hand write. She writes poetry and grocery lists and notes all by hand. And is always in need of new ink pens.

For her birthday I'm getting her more ink pens, and never before has it been this hard to find a decent price for a couple blue ballpoint ink pens.

They are mainly found on scrapbooking sites like "CreativewithMia.com" where they take delivery charge double the price of the product.

I searched for around an hour scrolling scrolling reading typing scrolling. Until I found 1 product that had blue ink pens in a set of 10, with good hand grip in different colours and normal delivery costs. I snatched up the last one in layer.

(Ps. Not everyone online is from the US)

I understand. I like to journal. I enjoy having nice pens. I have a small collection. They are not cheap either. They range from $75 to $300 each. Once you have the pen refills are readily available and cheap.

@Musicman I forgot to check if they had refills but they will last 2-3 years at least.
