Talking where do you get your supplies?

not like fabric, yarn or whathave you but

Envelopes, sharpies, tape, mailing labels, and what not.

Where do you go?

Who's nice?

Do you order online or go to the store?

etc

Thanks!!

I use USPS Priority shipping for items over 13 oz, but less than a few pounds. I get all my supplies ordered direct from the usps.com site free (priority boxes of all sizes, priority envies, tape, labels etc.)

I get packing tape, padded envies, sharpies and stuff like that at dollar stores.

I got shipping labels on ebay. I bought a box of 800 labels (the big 2 part ones used by UPS) for $5 with free shipping.

I've had good and FAST service from Veripack and Papermart. They sell packaging, but in pretty enormous quantities. The price is waaaaaay cheaper per envelope, tape roll, etc that way.

If you get on the Officeperks list at Officemax, they send some pretty great coupons out very regularly. Makes bubblewrap and labels more affordable.

I keep meaning to order from Uline.com but I end up buying locally at Office Max or Xpedx.
