Title says it all. Not sure whether it's national, but I'm in the Chicago area. I know the ad has been posted, but I thought maybe some of the people who scooped up the Epson 875DC would be interested...For the adventureous, I believe Best Buy has the same paper in their add for $10.99...Pricematch and you'd get an extra 10% off...

I can attest that this paper is better than kodak on my EPSON 780...

I saw the same ad in a Central PA newspaper. That is a very good price for 8.5x11" photo paper: only 25 cents a sheet!

Nickel may have misread to think it was the OD brand paper which is at least as good as the Premium Epson high gloss in my opinion.

figured as much... but this is the stuff I use in my epson 860 to print photos. Once the photos are framed and looked at from a foot away, no one can tell the difference.

but that hp 7.5 mil gloss kicks everybody in the fanny--i bought some of that epson premium gloss and the matte in the coupon deal a couple of weeks ago--it and me canon 6000 don't get along, ditto for kodak.
but bump because it's still a good deal--i'm giving mine to my pops who i got tha 880 for father's day--labor day's coming up

FYI--Epson has some new papers coming out in a few weeks (within 6-8 weeks I hope) that will supposedly fix the color shift issue and be even better than the premium glossy paper, so they say...

Haven't they been promising that for a year and a half now? :)

Unless you're in a high-ozone location, this stuff will probably work fine. (I'm not paying 2-3 times as much for &quot;special&quot; paper).

Thanks for the heads-up, though.

Yea, a new paper line must be coming out because BB and CompUSA have &quot;buy 2, get 1 free&quot; deals on Epson Photo Paper. When everybody has something on sale, they must be making room for new product.

I got some epson photo paper from costco a month ago. 100 sheets for $19.99
To me that seems like a better deal. The paper is 100% epson too (not kirkland sig.)

You don't have to be a Costco member in order to buy from Costco.com. But you do need to pay a little premium for every item you purchase.
