Sorry if this is "old news". In older posts, I noticed several people lamenting that Costco didn't make Kirkland paper available in larger sizes, such as:
However, the square inches per dollar of paper is significantly higher than the 8.5" x 11" paper.
If I did the math correctly, based on the website prices:
4"x6": 480 sq in per dollar (about $0.05 each ... 5)
8.5' x 11": 740 sq in per dollar (about $0.125 each ... 12.5)
11" x 14": 285 sq in per dollar (about $0.54 each)
13" x 19": 274 sq in per dollar (about $0.90 each)
Note that a higher number for sq. inch per dollar is more economical. Tax and/or shipping not included.
Disclaimer: I'm not a Costco member, and haven't used the larger paper. I was able to buy several boxes of Kirkland 8.5" x 11" from a friend, and this printing newbie has been very satisfied with it when used on a Canon Pro-9000-2 with OEM ink and OCP ink.
Also, I don't know how the above square inches per dollar compare to other sources of larger paper.
