I ordered this specifically because it was listed as RED and the color of the paper in the picture was RED... however when it arrived it definately was a PINK red so I returned it. Feel this partricular description of the color of the paper should be corrected.
Need brightly colored paper for a trick or treating event the community service club I advise was hosting. Orange is a school color too so it was the perfect choice. No copies jammed and we doubled the number of kids present on comparison to last year!
Three of us live in a tiny town with few opportunities for local gatherings. We decided to start a "farmer's market" of sorts but ours would allow sale of any item as long as it was legal. This means gently loved commercial products such as Mary Kay and tupperware garden and fruit products crafts food etc. We decided on green and white as our "2nd Saturday Market" colors. Your Bright green is great color for attracting attention to our new Market. We printed flyers of the bright green tying our market colors into the flyers. We printed a thousand copies a month for our local newspaper inserts with Market dates on the front and Application on the back. NICE that the paper is heavy enough that we didn't have any bleed through! Our printer was pleased that the paper didn't jam his machines. Our Market was such a success that next year we will be having it TWO Saturdays a month and our vendors are ecstatic! We are pretty happy ourselves.
Doing food drives for our local the open pantry food bank every October I found that when making flyers to deliver door to door this type of paper has the quality texture and durability needed to with stand the weather at this time of year.
I would buy this paper over and over again it is great to print recioes and other stuff on it and make halloween decoration's with it.i love getting reward points to spen in the staple store also.
With all the paper on the market it can sometimes be a difficult task to "pick & choose" for the right job. However since discovering this product there is no need to stand in the aisle and ponder which one to pick. The added weight of the 24 LB paper makes it ideal for our use and the bright and bold neon colors keep it in the forefront of those we are trying to reach.
