AND NOW, A FEW MINUTES WITH SALLY GRIMES
Vice President of Global Marketing for Sharpie and
The New Sharpie Stainless Steel Spokesmodel
Q: Do you ever work or do you just doodle with Sharpies all day?
A: I do a lot of doodling. Did you know you can work and doodle at the same time?
Q: You look like the Terminator in that photo. Are those robotic fingers?
A: Actually, that’s me trying to hold onto a bunch of the new stainless steel Sharpies. They’ll be in stores in March. In the meantime, I’ve been hording them. People are angry.
Q: Why?
A: I hide them behind that blue poster on my window ledge. See it there behind me? I’m planning ahead for the holidays.
Q: Don’t you have to buy them at the store like everybody else?
A: I get a couple of freebies. You know. Perks.
Q: What can you tell us about this shiny new stainless steel Sharpie?
A: It has an etched Sharpie logo on the barrel and a refillable cartridge. It looks good. I mean, this is one sweet Sharpie.
Q: Do you use it to sign autographs?
A: Not yet but I will after everybody reads this. Call me. Let’s do lunch.
Shiny New Sharpie
These look great-can’t wait to get some! Good luck Sally–you’ll do great!
Oh these are beautiful!! Imagine if you had one of these with the Obama personalization – you’d take over the world!
Wow, very cool, I’m going to have to pick up a couple of those!!!
oooooh. I want one.
Very interesting. SO what stores will have them in March?
Thanks for the info.
Wow, these are great! I really appreciate the utility of a Sharpie and now I can carry one in a rugged and stylish form. Kudos to your design and marketing dept!
Great looking Sharpie!
But… Please leave off any Obama personalizations, lol! Hopefully, these new pens don’t require a Stimulus bailout just to by one!
Paradise Pen came out with something similar last year called the Sherpa.

Their version fits several low end disposable pens including the Sharpie marker.
Sally digs me. I can tell by the way she is staring.
Well it is mid-March, Where are the Sharpies???
I have been to a few office stores and Wal-Mart a few times. I’m going to check Target tonight.
Please ship these!!!
Any sign of these at retail? No go here at Staples, Office Depot or Wally… Any update on shipping dates?
