You need to go to a place like Sam's Club or Walmart. I buy
paper plates by the BOX, there's like 500 or more in the container,
and they are really cheap uncoated white paper plates. The ones
at most grocery stores are fancy printed colored things and way
too expensive, and are coated.
I threw the box off my last one and still have about two inches of
paper plates from that batch. Next time I buy some I'll get the
place and brand name for you.
