Maybe this has been mentioned before...

J and C has decent discounts on mis-cut film. Since I cut most of my film from 4x5 sheets anyway, their odd cut doesn't matter to me at all. I ordered 150 sheets for $33. including shipping, which I thought was a pretty good price. This will give me 75 sheets 9x12 and 150 sheets 2.25 x 3.25 inch.

Just thought I'd pass this along for anyone else who watches the film budget...

I have two packs (25 sheets each) of the miscut 4x5 that will eventually find its way (without further modification) into pinhole cameras made to fit it (though they'll surely accomodate correctly sized 4x5 as well). Since I don't (yet) try to cut down film, that's all the miscut that makes sense to get at this time -- but they must have had an awful bunch of the stuff, since it's been on sale for most of a year. At $5 for 25 sheets in the miscut, it's hard to argue with the price -- I'm tempted to get a few more packs for the freezer. Have to see what my next film order looks like...
