I purchase copy paper often as I am a teacher & my students use it for drawing & I use it to copy worksheets newletters etc. I always buy it when they have the rebate sales & love Staples for it as I can buy paper cheap as our school budget is not what it used to be.
I buy 2 to 4 boxes a week of this paper when on sale with coupons. It provides great value and quality WAS good until they changed it. The newer boxes are now thinner and get damaged VERY easy. The blue on the box and reams now rubs off on everything. The ream packaging is now "waxier" and the glue they use seems to stick to the first few pages in the reams I purchased so far. If you look at the pallet they put out of this paper you can still fine a few of the old boxes but I'm not sure how long that will last.
