    I'm trying to switch from acordian (that is bursting at the seams) to binder system. I've gotten the baseball/hockey card sheet protectors from the dollar store but am in need of bigger ones as some coupons I refuse to fold. (I'm a little OCD with my coupon organization and hate folding them!) I'm looking into a 4 square kind, so four individual pockets, two on top, two on bottom but having the openings on top (seen some with the openings on side, dumb idea).

    We tried WM, those were the ones that opened on the side and they were too big, am looking for ones that are normal paper size or a tiny bit bigger.

    Tried Staples they had some weird Martha Stewart ones with fold over flaps ... didn't like them.

    Tried Blacks (figured they would have them for pictures) but they had nothing.

    Tried independent type dollarstores, nothing.

    Tried Zellers ... nothing.

    I'm willing to buy online if they are the right size and if they come recommended. But if anyone knows of a store I can go to and find what I'm actually looking for would be a massive help. We're thinking of checking out Michaels but they are a little pricey.

    You probably won't find square pockets, at least not for photos. How many square photos do you see?

    I picked mine up at Walmart in the scrapbooking section. they are a little bigger than the baseball card holders but they work well for the bigger coupons. Good Luck!!

    I bought mine on ebay. They came from the states and there was no duty as it was under $10 for each purchase and they arrived in about 10 days..

    I bought 10 each of:

    3 pockets/page Listing
    4 pockets/page Listing
    6 pockets/page Listing
    2 pockets/page Listing

    I think in total it came to just under $20. Hope that helps!

    Well if you wanted to be technical ...

    I really meant 4x6 "squares" which are your average photo but then I think the sheet would be bigger then general paper size.

    Yeah those are those silly Martha Stewart ones that have some fold over flaps which I really wouldn't like which is too bad seeing as I have a $15 GC

    Oh No!!

    Check out this seller's store. He has all 4 kinds and I'm sure you can negotiate quantities and combined shipping fees. Just remember that if the total value is over 15 or 20 dollars you may need to pay duty.

    The seller is King77

    Hope that helps!

    We're going to check Michaels as a last resort today and if nothing then I will be ordering the original 4 pocket/square ones you posted the link to. Thanks for your help
