Go back to old packaging in a box

This Staples product is a great value compared to the price of the very similar brand name papers. However after opening it it's new packing - shrink wrapped without a box - as a low volume user I am left with the ability to store it in the numerous places I did with the prior closed box. In the enclosed box the product remained clean and intact until fully used and was easy to handle and store. Now the reems slide and fall and collect dust until used.
The quality of the paper is a little thinner than what I would use as a quality paper. It is great for copies but for presentations I would go to the 22 pound or 24 pound paper. However I use this paper primarily for copies.
We use Staples paper almost all the time for a lot of home business printing as well as personal. This was a particularly good deal and the 5 pack bundles are easier to store than the large cases. We maintain at least 15 reams in back-up at all times.
Buying paper is the least fun but one has to buy it and plenty of it for the computers. Staples paper is the least expensive on the market yet it works well for the price. It doesn't bleed through and even though it's meant for black and white it works good on color too.
