The economy has put a tight grip on our wallets and it seems to be getting tighter each and every day. There are a lot of things we can do to help lower the monthly business costs we have to deal with. One area however, that usually is well over looked is office supplies. The reason the expenses on office supplies are overlooked is because we buy in bulk when we need it, unlike other things that we buy when they are on sale. If we run out of printer paper we buy a box of it, not caring about the price because we need to have it. If there was a way to make sure that every time you bought something, it was the cheapest possible price that would be great. Well thanks to online shopping there is a more realistic possibility of that happening. One of the biggest expenses when it comes to office supplies is ink cartridges. The reason is because offices have to buy durable, big printers that can handle copies, faxes, emails, different size printouts and so much more. In order for these printers to work they need to be used correctly and a busy office can go through a large number of ink cartridges over a year. Not to mention if the ...
... printers break down, which is very common, they have to be replaced and that means different kinds of toner cartridges.

To save on the money you have to spend every year for this you may want to consider shopping online. There are plenty of retail stores and office supplies stores around that will sell you the toner cartridges you need but none of them may work out for you. There are hundreds of combinations of cartridges and printers out there and not every store can carry every brand. That's why you need to shop online for your office supplies, not only because you know they have it in stock but also because they will get you the best prices. Online companies do not have to charge the mark ups that stores do to make a profit on the brand name cartridges. That's important if you are trying to save a lot of money each year. And if you think it doesn't add up consider this, if you have a busy office you may spend $100 a month in ink. Well if you were able to cut that cost by even twenty percent you'd save almost $250 a year. That may not seem like a lot to you but if you could save twenty percent on everything you would take it in a heart beat so you have to start somewhere.
