Paper prices
It's time to order another case of legal paper so I got online and on the phone to price paper in my area. Here's what I found.
Office Depot: $59.99 (I have a $10 off coupon + I get 10% cash back)
Staples: $61.99 (I have a $10 off coupon + I get 10% cash back)
Quill: $74.49 without a coupon code
Sam's: $42.33
When I started in this business over six years ago, I could purchase a case of legal for $36.99.

Quill's got a sale going. Anybody have the code?
Sorry... got an email a day or so ago--think price was better than any of the above-mentioned, but I deleted it because I just stocked up earlier. Oh, & I remember $25/carton legal.

FedEx-Kinkos consistently has better deals than Quill
And I get my paper 48 - 72 hours after I've order it.

Do you have to have an account with FedEx
to be entitled to the deal?

Re: Do you have to have an account with FedEx
I just ordered for the first time, I'm not a member and didn't have a code to get the sale price. BTW - letter is 3.74/ream.

I hope you got your $5 off each $50 ordered: hard to find code, but I post all the time. Also, if you didn't, call them, tell them you forgot and they will apply and /or credit
It's on the home page under featured promotions on right side top: FDKSAVE5 they have thad this for as long as I can remember.

Thanks for the code, but it was too late.
My order is on the shipping dock already. They say I should get my order tomorrow or Thursday at the latest.

Re: Thanks Harry, but I found a better deal w/ FedEx-Kinkos
I vaguely recall some people saying they had some jamming problems with the FedEx paper. Have you had any trouble with it? Since most of it is going to end up scanned or shoved into a drawer, I'm not worried about it being the best quality, but nor do I want printing problems or for it to look reaaaally cheap. Anyone else have comments about the difference in quality being an issue? Thanks.
