I have used the Avery labels for years for everything from addresses to labels on medications for our mission trip. Tried to save some money with the store brands. They never work. Got stuck in the printer, wouldn't print correctly on the label, and just were not the quality of the Avery Brand. I save my money now purchasing the Avery label because i don't have the wasted sheets like I did with the store brands. Save your money and time with the Avery labels.
I have used different sizes of peel and stick address labels. They are so easy to use. The only issue that I've had is that the print on the labels does not stay lined up properly from start to finish. Usually, though, the majority of the labels are still usable and when used on a white envelope, the alignment issue is not really noticeable.
I have been in the workplace for 40+ years, from mortgage banking to retail to schools administration offices. In all my years working, I have always been able to depend on Avery for any item used in my office. At times, upper administration has demanded the use of generic or off-brand products because they were "cheaper", however, you get what you pay for. With Avery labels (and other items), you know what you are getting, and you can depend on getting the best!! If I get a choice, I will always use AVERY!
As a teacher I have to send out periodic mailings. The ease of use of Avery labels combined with the Avery Wizard makes my day. The process of handwriting envelopes is a thing of the past!
