Where does everyone buy their printer ink ?
I've been using 101inks.com for awhile and just bought a new printer and the ink is more expensive. Anyone know what site is cheapest for ink ???

I use to order from Abacus 24/7. I now get mine refilled at Walgreens. $10 for B&W, $15 for color. Never a problem & I get them back same day!

I've been using CarrotInk.com for years. Good quality, quick service and reasonably priced.
They constantly have coupons out: $10 off $40 or more + free shipping; and free cartridge and free shipping. These are usually stackable.

I second supermediastore.com. If you wait for them to run a free shipping promo then it makes the deal even better.

i checked out all the sites everyone recommended and the carts for my printer are all the same price. I was using a canon i320 and the carts were real cheap but the printer crapped out. Now i'm using a canon mp470 and i wish i owuldve checked out the prices on the carts first bc they are over $20.

generic brands on ebay,search by printer model number.
The ones I bought are not the greatest for printing a college paper or a resume, but good for directions, receipts, emails, flight confirmations, coupons. I say not the greatest because some of the letters have parts of the letter missing, like I think my lower case e's were looking like C's which can be annoying to a professor reading a 5 page paper or something and not too professional for a resume. Then again not sure if its my 5 year old printer or the ink?

Have you ever tried Lasermonks? Its pretty cool as they donate a portion of the money to charitable organizations. They also provide you with postage paid bags to ship off your old cartridges to be recycled. The prices on their generic stuff are decent.

I buy my ink at staples usually. Checked the websites listed, and the ones that actually listed my printer, Canon IP4300, were about the same price as my local staples. Additionally staples has staples rewards where i get like 10% back on ink and paper. Plus I dont have to pay shipping or wait for delivery.
