    I thought Barclays had the pens on offer that read "take me im free/2 written on them so its hardly stealing when Barclays are actually giving the pens away!
    Good things come to those who wait!

    waste of time sending off for A PEN, just go to William Hill, they've got loads of well nice ones

    ..Was in Ikea today, always good for a pencil or 3. Needed something for free after all that walking and ultimate bill at the end! Still, all was forgiven by the time I reached the Hot Dog bar ;)

    Thanks OP, I have been looking for some decent promo products for my business, I have also ordered their catalogue so that I can browse at my leisure.

    Our Barclays had them in a box that said "please take one". I interpreted that as "please take one to fill in your paperwork then put it back so we don't run out". I work in an office where people routinely steal the pens from the signing-in book (it's a charity and pens are expensive when you have to buy lots that actually work) so I keep hoping it's good karma if I don't steal pens :-)
