Fine Permanent Markers By Cyn Bagley on Jul 04, 2008 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

We use a lot of permanent markers for various tasks. Whenever I divide my chicken into freezer bags, I use a fine permanent marker. Whenever my husband writes on a recordable CD, he also uses the same marker. However, those markers had caps. Many times I would find the markers dried up because the caps either got lost or were not fully on the marker.

I am sure that you have had the same problem.

Anyway, I needed more markers so when I was browsing through Office Max (I love the paper smells), I knew that these retractable markers would be wonderful. I bought a package of five. It has been about two months and none of the markers have dried out. And, they are the same good Sharpie product that I love.

My husband doesn't complain either about finding dry markers. So it is a win win situation.
