I love that there is a great color selection!!! I can't speak specifically to the quality because it was purchased as a gift but have always found products I was happy with at Staples.
We have the paper cut into squares and use them as color code tags for products we sell. A different color for each week to show how long an item has been on the shelf. We also use the bright color sheets in the mix of tags.
I'm sure this paper is good however it was purchased as a gift for one of my kids teachers. They were running out of colored paper in the teacher room and she was certainly stocked up on PLENTY of disinfecting wipes so I bought her some paper. I love paper and understand how it can be something frivolous but exciting. Not to mention I know what kind of my own $$ I spent when I was teaching.... I always found nice product at Staples.
We use different colors for our advertisement and program fliers in the rink. Each program has a different color and monthly schedules have different schedules from month to month. It makes them very easy to identify and the information display is very colorful.
This was a good quality paper and I used it to make prayer cards for my church group. I laminated them and they held up well. We use them at all our meetings and we carry them in our purses and use them for funeral masses as well. The color is bright enough but still can be read easily. We added our logo which displayed nicely. We will be purchasing this paper again to be used for the same purpose. It is definitely a good value and is not too expensive. I would also try the other pastel colors.
When looking for colored paper for our church bulletins 24lb is the best. Yet I still find the 20lb to be adequate. Which seems to still have a variety of color choices available.
