great paper

we have been using Staples brand paper for years. it always gives us the quality that we expect. We store information for 7 years and more and the paper does not seem to yellow or fade.
The Staples Multipurpose Paper is excellent for most uses such as copying documents writing notes making quick signs for use in fax machines and simply for doodling - among other things. As a Realtor I sometimes have to use the 8- 1/2" legal sized paper for things like contracts and leases. However for most other office uses the 8 1/2" x 11 size is perfectly suitable. The quality of the paper is not that great but it serves the purpose adequately. I therefore recommend it.
I use this multipurpose paper for everything writeable and printable. My grandson draws on it makes crafts with it and it is very durable for all.I donate to the church for the copies and to my grandson's school for the teachers use. We paint on it write on it print on front and back on it. Very firm paper and with the whiteness you can see most colored print on it. I keep watch out for it at Staples to get rebate offers and get great deals. You can never have too much around with a 6 year old in the house as we know where their imaginations can lead through creativity! This is truly a great piece of paper. :)
For years our office used brand name copy paper. While we never had any problems with them one day I noticed that the Staples brand was the same weight and brightness that we were using but significantly less expensive. On top of that I kept noticing it being marketed as a great deal i.e. buy one get two. With nothing to lose we purchased it and started using it. I had prepared myself for some disappointment but as it turned out its quality was as good as he brand we had been ordering. In fact it was so good that we started using it for printing documents and not just for copying. I could not be more pleased with yet another Staples product.
I buy all my supplies at Staples and they are always helpful during my shopping in their store. If I can't find an item I normally don't have to wait long before an associate will passing by and ask if I need help. The local store also has coupons sitting on the table when entering the store and I can save lots of money by using these coupons. The store employees have also suggested that if the store doesn't have something in stock that they will gladly order the items for me and it is delivered to my door! GREAT PLACE TO GET ALL YOUR SUPPLIES!
