Excellence in "standard" sheet protector

I had this project in mind to protect the museum's minutes from 1972 on which were in a big binder and the holes made in each page were tearing terribly from use and abuse. I happened on a sale at Hobby Lobby 2 packages of 100 for price of one - such a deal - but the problem was they fit sheets "UP TO 8-1/2 by 11 inches" NOT ACTUAL 8-1/2" x 11" sheets. BUMMER! And YES I did complain to manufacturer and Hobby Lobby. Then I went to STAPLES and got the PROFESSIONAL grade product that worked so much better. Ended up I got two 200 piece packages and completed that project and 2 more little ones.
I have been using page protectors for many years and consider them to be necessary for keeping important papers clean and intact. I use them for keeping pertinent paperwork with my photo albums too. They are especially useful for keeping recipes clean and clear while I am cooking. I take a small piece of scotch tape and stick the recipe to a cabinet above the counter where I am working. Then I can clearly read the recipe while I work without having to touch the actual recipe. Because I can put recipes back-to-back I'm able to have fewer pages. The punched holes make it so easy to create and use my own recipe book with a tree-ring binder.
We use these almost daily in our historical society. They protect our photos and important documents. I've been purchasing them in large quantities since 1999. They are very useful and helpful.I used to be able to get a box and then get a box free. But I no longer find those offers. Why not? The store should restore that special purchase. It would be a money saver for those of us in the not for profit industry. With the use of sheet protectors we can allow more people to see and view these important documents that we have in our collection.
These sheet protectors are reasonably priced durable and easy to use. They come in a box that keeps them tidy until you're ready to use them. Organizers will love them!
We are an online art dealer company and we include all the certificates in these sheet protectors when mailing our products. I have been using these sheet protectors for years and there had never been any problems. Each sheet protector holds up to about a dozen sheets of paper. Very sturdy and easy retrieval of papers in and out of these protectors. It also it attractive and a nice protective addition to our precious certificates. My daughter alos uses these at college for her school assignments.
I have tried cheaper covers and they either split when you add the paper in them or they are not strong enough when you turn pages and the holes rip out. These are priced well for the quality. This is about my 8th box I am using them to make Ancestry books for my 4 nieces brother sister myself and my daughter. I will continue to buy these because they work well in the extra sturdy notebooks that I bought at Staples. The notebooks are the largest Staples sells so they hold a large number of pages and I want our books not to just be informative but to look nice also.
I bought these for presentations that are included in large binders. I like that they are thin so the binder's weight and thickness is kept to a minimum. They are clear and can be reused a few times. I thought the price was reasonable for the quality.
