I buy Staples brand rubber bands (sizes #32 and #33) in pre-packaged bags. It's a good value. However local Staples stores do not seem to replenish their stock of the one pound bags very frequently.
This is the first time we have purchased this product. The quantity and quality seem to be a good value. The bands have good elasticity and seem to be strong enough.
These bands work great for wrapping around blueprints or a large stack of papers. They seem to last quite awhile and don't get brittle like other ones I have purchased.
