The Origami Forum

I personally spend about $20 dollars a week on paper! My savings account isn't too happy about it though!

I don't spend too much, maybe not even 5 dollars a week.

It's hard to tell really since I don't buy paper each week or on any other regular basis. I mostly only buy when I see something interesting in a shop or on the internet so it probably is not that much per week. But it's usually enough so that I always have more than enough paper at home

Uh, I really don´t know how much money exactly I spend on paper, but I´m very sure that it´s less than 5$.

i use print paper,and unused craft paper in my host family. so it cost me 0 $ a week,

Fortunately paper is mega cheap in where i'm living. For a 80x80cm super
thin paper (thinner than tracing-for folding insect ) I pay 0,1dollar.
For a 40xm foil I pay 0,3 dollar.
The most expensive one is double size tissue with 100cmx100cm and price is 1 dollar. But...

I pay at least 1 hour per day folding. I can't stand a day without touching the paper. Having free time I spent the whole day with Origami. And you know,time is money....

To you hiba, it maybe cheap but to me nooooo. I use paper that have print on one side and clear on other side to fold because they are free and easy to find. But there is one time i actually buy paper so average up to now how much I have spend is $0.0000154 per week. Trust that number because I actually do the calculation

i use print papers too, but fisrt i use them to try fold models after i buy thin paper to fold again, price is about $0.5

Hiba, you can be really happy, I wish I could get that thin paper at that price in Austria too, you´re a lucky person.

The only reason i spend so much on paper as coz I take so much where evr i go and fold when evr i'm not doing anything else. I go thru a lot of paper...

but.... for 20 dollars you can get at least 1000 sheets of copy paper or several blocks of memo paper (which is square already)... even if I fold a lot while sitting in a tram, etc., I don't use the most expensive paper for that...

I never spend any money on paper! I'm just a kid, and my parents buy all the paper... anyway, I usually use scrap paper for when I'm trying something new... nothing expensive untill I know I can do it

I'm a little mad, and I'm perhaps the only one here who has the habit of origami as an overly expensive one. I know this cause I'm only 13 and I spend that much myself... I spent $20 dollars today... *rocking backwards and forwards* I LOVE PAPER!!!

Well, I went nuts today and spent a little over $50 on paper, but that was just because I had a 30% off coupon I needed to use before the end of the month...

Lucky! Where I go for paper it's really expensive. But their range of Chiyogami and Washi is really amazing. They sell mostly 7.5cm and 15cm sheets unfortunately...
