Fab Freebie: This Is Your Pilot Writing
***This giveaway is now closed – see who won below! ***
Clearly I’m not the only one who loves a good writing utensil (and Target card) as this giveaway reached our 10,000 entry cap within just 24 hours. Nice work team! So that means we get to crown a winner early. That lucky writer is… Heather F (who “writes notes on the back of envelopes and then loses them. Argh.”) Congrats Heather!
This sounds kinda weird, but I’m very particular about my writing tools. So when the folks at Pilot noticed that we tend to write with their products, they wanted to thank us by passing some freebies along. But you know we don’t take them, so we’re paying it forward in the form of a $500 prize to one of you. Now, before you start figuring out what the heck you’re gonna do with $500 worth of pens – let me stop you. While they’ll keep your hands busy with a variety of pens and highlighters (even some erasable varieties) they’re also gonna let our lucky winner pick out $150 worth of Levenger notebooks and organizers (since we could all use a little organization this time of year). Oh, and to round out the $500 prize, how does a $200 Target gift card sound? That way you can pick up any other items you need to get 2013 off to a productive and organized start.
- PRIZE: An assortment of Pilot products plus $150 towards the Levenger notebooks of your choice and a $200 Target gift card (total value $500).
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “PILOT ME!” and tell us…
- BONUS QUESTION: … your favorite way to take notes or scribble down a message. Do you always keep a ballpoint pen in your pocket or purse? Do you swear by pencils so that you can erase your misspellings? Or are you 100% digital and prefer to rely on phone apps and voice memos to keep you organized?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, January 16th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: We always beg every vendor to ship internationally but some companies are not legally able to vend things beyond specific areas (more on that here). This giveaway is open to the United States and Canada.
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

PILOT ME!
I am torn between pencils and writing notes on my phone. I swear by mechanical pencils because I can never find a pencil sharpener when I need one!
PILOT ME!
I use my iPhone sometimes for lists, but my favorite way to take notes and make lists is with a pen and paper — that way I get to cross off the things I’ve done and I can keep a running lists (some things I do immediately and some things stay on the list for a while — one item on my list right now is from eight months ago!).
Pilot me!
I always make handwritten notes, always in pen never pencil. Just the act of writing helps things stick in my mind.
PILOT ME!
PILOT ME! Unfortunately I am hopelessly unorganized and scratch notes down on anything I can find from the backs of receipts to my kids’ construction paper! I have made it a resolution to become more organized and this prize would be an amazing start to that journey!!
PILOT ME! I always have a pen handy in my purse but paper can be anything from a post-it, to a used envelope pulled out of the trash, to a church bulletin.
PILOT ME!!!!
I have a love affair with my planner, and any notes I need to make get jotted down in that bad boy. In ink. I’m such a BA!
Pilot me! i <3 lists and pointy pens (.5, not .7)
PILOT ME! Ballpoint pen or other pen to lined paper is my notetaking method of choice. :-)
PILOT ME! I’m a pen and paper kind of girl!
PILOT ME!! I love a nice pen and new, crisp notebook for taking notes.
Pilot me!
It’s not very professional, but I tend to take notes on my hand if its something I must remember. I have done this since high school so it’s been 20 years of this habit!
PILOT ME! I use ballpoint pens, love the old school papermates.
PILOT ME!
I love using the Pilot Varsity fountain pen. Makes me feel like I’m writing something important every time I write. I’m a sticky note and pen kind of guy.
PILOT ME! I love to doodle while on conference calls :)
PILOT ME!!!

Pilot Me!
I love all office supplies!
Pilot me!!!!
Lately I’ve been using my phone for my to do lists. But I’ve been having issues of them mysteriously deleting. :( back to hand writing notes!
Pilot Me!!
I love my G2s! So much, in fact, that when I got some fancy “Cross” pens, I replaced the cartridges with the Pilot G2 refills. So, I always have a gel pen handy to scrawl something down!
Pilot me! I always use a pen and a small notebook…there’s nothing better than physically crossing something off of a list! :)
“PILOT ME”
I love to use pens whenever I am writing…black ink always! I like to take notes on post-its…they’re a life saver!
PILOT ME! I’m some combination of iphone notes/email and good old-fashioned paper and pen list-making.
PILOT ME! I love to write notes and lists down by hand and then take a fat magic marker to cross completed items off. So gratifying. :)
Pilot me!
I try to carry a small notebook and a pen with me in my purse to scribble things down as needed.
Pilot me, please! Love a smooth ball-point or gel pen. Great for lining through those items on the never-ending To-Do list :-)
PILOT ME!
There’s always about three kinds of lists going at all times at my house. I am a gel pen kinda writer, usually, but if there’s a better one, I’m ALL OVER IT!
Pilot Me!!
I love me some good pens for writing down all kinds of lists throughout the week! (I even keep a notebook along with some pens in my purse in case of a list emergency!)
List emergency! Love it! Baaha
PILOT ME!
I’m awful and tend to never have a pen or pencil handy, and then when I do find one – it’s usually empty or dried out!
PILOT ME!
My husband swears by the Pilot G-2!
PILOT ME!
I always take notes with pen, usually in a journal. I have several shoved in my desk drawer, one next to my bed, and a tiny one in my purse. I just can’t take notes digitally; it’s not the same!
Pilot me!
for serious note taking, a pencil is a must.
for the quick and dirty (lol) i’ll whip out my cell phone, but sometimes ( about 40% of the time) i’ll actually have a notepad in my purse and i’ll dig around until i can find something (anything)
Pilot me! I love a good pen, especially for edits!
PILOT ME!! WOW, best giveaway ever! Pilots are my favorite pens. I’m always jotting down notes.
PILOT ME!
Things happen when they’re on our google calendar or the notepad on the fridge. :)
Pilot Me!!!
I keep pens EVERYWHERE. I’m always losing them. I keep one or two in my purse, a few in my cars center console for writing down business miles. I hand write grocery lists. I am only digital when it comes to calendars…. that way my phone can alert me with a sound where a paper calendar can’t. :) Though, we do have a family paper calendar that my husband writes his scheduling stuff on for me. :)
Pilot me!
Old fashioned post-its, I’ve got them everywhere, I love to be able to throw them away when I complete the reminder!
Pilot me!
Pen and paper, although 2 year old keeps wandering away with my pen
PILOT ME! I’m a huge fan of the Pilot G-2 0.38 pens (yes, I’m a total pen snob) and they’re perfect for jotting notes in my Moleskine.
Pilot Me!
I am a freak about my writing tools!
Pilot Me… My husband thinks the real reason i went into teaching was to have a stock of school supplies on hand! I love pen and index cards- I keep them everywhere…
Pilot me!
Please!!
PILOT ME!
I love pens. Anything that’s pretty simple with smooth ink. I always have a pen in my purse. Or at least a crayon.
PILOT ME!!!!!
I have a pen with me almost always, I stash them in my purse, car, bookcase, everywhere! Never know when you’ll need one!
PILOT ME!
I’m super picky about my preferred pens and it just so happens that Pilot is my absolute favorite brand. I love a good pen and anice clean sheet of paper for notes, to-do lists, or even just some doodling.
Would love some new pens!
PILOT ME!
I HAVE to write everything down. My short-term memory is that of a two year old. ESPECIALLY in the grocery store- I will think of something I need, pass the ice cream isle, and end up with a cart full of Rocky Road!
I always keep a pen and paper handy.
:D
PILOT ME! I love to make bulleted to-do lists in pen (at work and at home) and them cross off the items with a thicker marker like a Sharpie…I always have the lists on my desk at work or in my purse.
PILOT ME! I am writing things down all the time, in all sorts of places, and can never seem to remember where I wrote the important stuff…
Pilot Me! I am a huge fan of office suplies and of Target. I write notes the old fashioned way with pen (usually blue, but I get crazy with green, purple, orange, etc. every now and then) on paper. I have various types of notebooks, each with post-its in the front for additional writing.
Give me a notepad to make my To Do list and then cross through it, and I’m a happy girl!
