Where have you found the best deal on sandpaper?

Was wondering whom has found the best deal on sandpaper?

Where, what grit, and how much?

Various combos... types & styles... Good!

I like them too...

Bought a bunch of the 3M bulk pacs, stuff is not very good, very thin, tears easily and comes apart. Will not buy anymore of that. Was working on some bandsaw boxes over the weekend and had some round paper that someone had given me for my orbital sander, it was the stick on kind and it would not work with my sander so it was just laying there, thought how can I use this up? I peeled the backing off and folded it in half and wow, what a great sanding tool. It was easy to hand sand with because being rough on both sides it did not slip off your hand while sanding, with it being folded and stuck together it did not seperate while sanding like regular paper folded in half and because it was made a little better for the orbital sander it seemed to last a lot longer. It was stiff but still pliable enough to be able to work it into curves and corners. It worked great and is now what I will use for most of my handsanding. It is a little more money but I think because it lasts longer it makes it worth it.

I'm from an area that the only stuff you can get is 3M or the junk stuff. The website leaves me confused as to what I'm getting, cloth, paper, silcon, adhesive, etc, don't see any brandname. Maybe I'm not digging deep enough.

Request one of their catalogs. The paper catalog is easy to grok.

I get Klingspor. It is amazing how good that stuff is compared to 3M or Norton.
