Paper is essential for printing projects and reports for the kids and my school work. We use a ton so when it is on sale we buy it. I like the instant rebates no need to send in paperwork. staples is far from our house so I don't go unless there are good sales. Paper is one sale I always look for at these types of stores. We mainly use the white paper. It is used for lots of projects too. We used to color on printer paper when the kids were younger.It is good strong paper.It does not jam up our printer.
Paper is too expensive. I do not buy it unless it.goes on sale. This pack goes for one cent at the beginning of the summer and I try to.stock up for my house but mostly for my classroom ( I am a teacher and we have to provide our own paper and supplies). This pack of paper is not the best quality (thickiest whitiest)but it definitely serves its purpose. I will continue to buy it as long as it continues to be put on sale. I do have one request that they allow teachers to get the two packs for their house/personal use and additional reams for their classroom.
With the economy the way it is these days and being out of work I am a budget shopper. We use paper for school work resume and cover letters printing documents coupons etc. (Assorted everyday personal use.) I have tried different types of paper from different brands. Yes others may be a heavier stock or whiter color but this suffices for my needs. Most people would not need high quality paper for everyday use so if this is all you need it for too I would recommend this. You get the best bang for the buck.
Good paper. Works well in my HP printer one-sided or two-sided. Takes toner well. Unfortunately the case weighs a lot and is very heavy to carry up the stairs but it is worth it. Nice to see it on sale; I usually pay much more for a case of computer paper. And my local store makes shopping convenient. If you use computer paper this was a great deal.
Its a great paper for a good price. I find that it has great texture and it's a bright shade of white which contrasts nicely with the ink print. My colored prints also look great and don't look like your typical paper prints especially if you want to print photographs on the paper instead of photograph paper meant for printers. I find it great for arts and crafts applications also. If you are into putting together collages you will find that this paper is up for the task. It takes paste really well!
