Yep that is where we got ours. My mom actually picked up what I consider a huge roll a couple of years ago for the kids to draw on. When we started keeping balls we just started using it. The roll is still huge! But when it runs out I will be headed right back to the local newspaper.

Also just a tip for cutting it easily. I cut what I need by using the Fiskars paper trimmer refill blade and just running it down the side of the roll, using a sewing measuring tape I measure from that cut and then make another cut down the side of the roll. It cuts a whole stack of paper quickly. Then I just keep them in an empty bin. You will also end up with a small size stack of paper than I cut down for my 15 qt tubs. Easy and free.
