Five Star Reinforced Filler Paper Plus Study App, Graph Ruled, 8.5" x 11", 80 Sheets/Pack (170122-WMT)

The reinforced holes make this my favorite paper. Standard notebook paper is far below the quality of this Five Star product. Sadly the price is high for 80 sheets. But it's a big improvement in notebook paper.

I use five stare college ruled paper for all my drafts of writing my stories (before computer) this paper is sturdy enough for me to work with and does not fall out of the binder

For some reason, 8 1/2" x 11" college ruled paper is not very easy to come across. Not only is this the perfect size but the holes are reinforced so they don't tear when placed in a 3-ring binder. The paper is quite sturdy, not flimsy like so many other brands. The color of the lines is a pleasant shade of blue, not too bright. Very smooth to write on with pen or pencil. Well worth the little extra money you pay compared to almost all other brands.

I use this for school and it does what I need it to do. The reinforced holes are nice so the paper doesn't rip as easily in my binder.

Cost was better than other stores for same items.

back to school good quality pick some up for the kids and teachers

The non reinforced pages fall out so easy hut these stay in the binders!

much better than in the past thank you

It doesn't make sense for the triangles to be so far right on the page; having it four columns over from the binder hole column is a complete waste of space. Would rate much higher if they were 1-2 boxes to the right of the binder hole column. The quality is still relatively great, but the illogical marking locations make for a highly frustrating experience for those used to the older unmarked versions. Both those who would use it and wouldn't use it would benefit from such a change.

Teachers put real effort into building school supply lists each year, and many of them still list Mead Five Star Filler Paper with an expectation of 100 sheets per pack. That has been the standard for filler paper for as long as most of us can remember. Mead now ships only 80 sheets under the same branding, at a higher price than before. The paper quality has declined along with the count. Erase something twice and you risk tearing straight through the sheet. This is not the durable, dependable paper Five Star built its reputation on. So the package has 20 fewer sheets, the price is higher, and the product performs worse. This is shrinkflation in its clearest form. Families are trying to make sure their children are properly equipped for the school year, while corporate leadership continues collecting bonuses and the consumer absorbs the difference every single time. I would also ask what the added "Study App" access is actually providing. The pack includes a $3.57 charge tied to this app, but there is little clarity on what that usage buys the customer. Mead built its name on quality. I would like to see that standard return, along with a price that reflects what is actually inside the package.
