steph3306 Posted January 31, 2009 Posted January 31, 2009 I try to find some after christmas that is plain enough for birthdays but no luck this year. I just wondering where some you buy yours. thanks Steph
vsa3janes Posted January 31, 2009 Posted January 31, 2009 About once a month or so Walgreen has Hallmark wrapping paper 3 pkgs for $1. It is flat wrap, 2 sheets in a pkg. They always have a variety of birthday paper for adults & kids gifts. Also, great print paper that can be used for any type of gift.
First Lady Posted January 31, 2009 Posted January 31, 2009 Factory card Outlet, they sometimes have $1 or $1.50 rolls that are 40sq feet!
peppysfireball Posted January 31, 2009 Posted January 31, 2009 Dollar Tree, or Walmart if it's for kids and I want something they would like as Dollar Tree has only generic stuff.
conj Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 dollar store... it gets ripped up and thrown out.. also - we have good quality paper at work - heavy bond - that gets recycled... it is good for the kids to use to wrap things (it doesn't rip easy) and they can color the outside.
mesarobins Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 In a pinch I have wrapped things in the comics that come with the sunday paper like conj said it just get ripped off and thrown out anyway
maggie329 Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 Family Dollar, Dollar General, also Michaels if you have the 40% off coupon. also Dollar Tree
peppysfireball Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 My kids hve printed it from printshop if it is small enough of a present.
steph3306 Posted February 2, 2009 Author Posted February 2, 2009 Thanks guys for all the tips. I always save the bags from my two ds birthdays. Well ds6 went to his first birthday party and when he came home he had the bag he took his present in. I asked why he had the bag and he said because he told the boy that his mom wants the bag back! I was so embarrased!!!!

I was so embarrased!!!!That is too funny! Did you tell him to do that? I would have been so embarrased too! Gave me a good chuckle at work though.
arelf27 Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 They have these recycable bags for $1 or so (maybe $1.99??) not really sure on the price but I have seen them everywhere.. That might be a good idea to buy these instead as they don't have to be thrown out and the person who gets the present can prob. find some use for it.. They have them at Kohl's so maybe buy these in advance with one of those coupons (15%, 30%) for cardholders. They are not that pretty though.. I did buy one at Kohl's just to try it out but instead of using for a gift has been using it to organize all of my kids books as I'm still on a hunt for a book shelf.. Well it's been holding up very well. Still looks like new!
lakj98 Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 I usually buy it randomly whenever I see it on sale and I just stock it up in my basement. I sometimes buy at the Dollar store, Party City, Walmart... Sometimes I let the kids use brown mailing paper and they paint or draw on it and we use that as wrapping paper.
