Fellow forumite Joe Kupina brought a nice discovery of his to my attention. Our county newspaper's printing shop is giving away the unused portions of their rolls of newsprint paper. I swung by yesterday to check it out for myself. Sure enough, I was shown two carts containing partial rolls of paper in various widths and in at least two different thicknesses. And I'm not talking about rolls with only a few feet or so left on the tube, but rolls with as much as hundreds of feet of clean paper left on them. I was told they're free for the taking anytime I want them. Consider checking with your own local newspaper print shop for the same deal.

Joe gets all the credit for this find. And I've heard rumor Joe is now working on finding a way for everyone to obtain a free top quality jingum with which to cut that free paper with.
