I had been using Staples 67# cream paper since I could get it locally but seems it is only available for order. They carry smaller reams (125 sheets) in the store but not in cream. You can order it online but shipping is $9. I do not love it that much so now looking for a replacement. The color matched my album page stock very well.

OK Paper was my 'go to', back in the day.

I'd buy 3-hole-drilled paper, over-size envelopes just large enough to hold a couple of #10s, etc.

Cheers,

Don't panic just yet. Staples is always sending me coupons for 50% off on a mail order. I have one right now for $30 off a $60 order. I just went to their website and a $25 off your first online order of $50 popped up. They also have free shipping over $50.

I don't know how much the paper you use is per pack, but it shouldn't be hard to get a lifetime supply at low cost.

re: Staples paper no longer stocked in stores

Well, I went to a different Staples to return the one I had purchased (ivory) and noticed they had 2 125 sheet packs of cream so I got them. I had a $10 off $30 coupon so I used that - something I got when I purchased the first one.

And I figured out ship to store is free.

re: Staples paper no longer stocked in stores

I've been using HP 32# Premium paper with a Laser Jet for my Steiner pages. These are the details:

32 lb. (320 gsm) weight, 100 bright, 163 whiteness
HP’s premium paper is ideal for color presentations, proposals and other important business documents
Extra heavyweight for documents that look and feel professionally printed
Superior white shade for high print contrast and more vibrant colors
Super smooth for sharp, detailed images and fine text
Optimized for use in all color laser printers and color copiers
Acid-free
Now contains ColorLok® Technology
FSC® certified

Reading the specs from the Stamp Smarter site I probably should to do some more research.

I collect used and hinge my stamps,and any valuable stamp I have is in a mount. I am happy with the weight (I have used 67# - too mu h for me).

It was $19.99 a ream at Office Max/Depot today, less with the APS discount. Amazon is cheaper.

re: Staples paper no longer stocked in stores

I use 67# for special items such as mini-sheets in a dedicate binder. had used bright white paper (did over 100 pages) but went back and redid them all in cream. The white was too much for me.
