I use parchment paper for my cookies and I noticed that when buying it at my local grocer (Food Lion) and it had gotten so expensive. It's Reynold's 24 ft. long for $2.99. What about your's?

If you found a reasonable priced parchment papers elsewhere, like online shopping, etc. - I would love to hear about it. icon_smile.gif

I buy it at the local restaurant supply store. In comes in full sheet size, so I cut them in half for sheet pans. There is 1,000 in a box for about $32.00. I get 200 1/2 sheets for less than 2cents a piece. the box is heavy but it lasts.

I second the local restaurant supply store. It really is the most reasonable way to go. Do an internet search or a yellow book search to find something close to you.

Definitely restaurant supply stores. They will have precut sheets for either full, half and possibly quarter sheet pans. They are much cheaper, and you don't have to deal with the roll and the paper curling (I know, not really that big of a deal, but it's an added bonus icon_lol.gif).

Oh, and if you've not been in one before, watch out- you will find so many cool things and you will want to buy it all!

Thank you for suggesting me to try my local restuarant supply store. I went to one in Raleigh area and I was so happy and pleased to buy 1,000 sq ft. for $16.99! A good bargain!

Thanks!!!
