I purchased preforated (sp?) placecards from zapco.com. If you look on their website they only list a lot size of them but if you call them up, you can purchase I very small amount. I ordered 50 sheets (6 cards per sheet) for a total of 300 cards for about $17.

I bought mine at JoAnn Fabrics, and also remember hearing girls mention Staples as well.

I looked online at staples and did not find any, I guess I will run over during lunch time and look. Is the fabric store online?

Take a look at the foldover business cards. They are about the sames size. Office supply stores should have them.

Grrrrr who bought out all of the placecards at all of the NYC staples stores. They can't find one store that has them in stock. They exist, they are just very popular. I will try the staples in Long Island

I only bought two packs, I swear! I bought mine about a month ago at the Staples on 34 between 5th and Madison. There were a bunch left at that time!

Re: Help I can't find placecards that I can print onto

Bridetobe I called and actually they do have some left there. No ONE ELSE may go to that store in the next couple of hours so that I may stop looking and cross them off of my list. I get first dibs because I only have 3 more weeks LOL!!!!!

just use business cards, they are virtually the same size as place cards. they come sheets of 10. check staples, officemax, office depot. you can buy them online also (shipping is only a couple of days)

Re: Help I can't find placecards that I can print onto

Dont the business cards have to be scored? I am setting them up like little tents I am not getting too creative so I need them to stand up on their own.

Re: Help I can't find placecards that I can print onto

Did you call Zapco Paper? They have the scored placecards. I brought them. They are perfect.

Re: Help I can't find placecards that I can print onto

I used the Name Badge type of cards, they sit like little tents say at a business meeting that sits in front of you with your name. You can get them at Office Max or Staples or any business supply store.

abc7007 - cool. I hope you get them. Let me know if you need a template (forum mail me with your email address). I set one up in Word...you can adjust the font to be whatever you like.

Re: Help I can't find placecards that I can print onto

Thanks. Bridetobe I forum mailed you. I am going to look and see what all of the stores have. Did the zapco company have a color to the cards? thanks

Re: Help I can't find placecards that I can print onto

The placecards from Zapco Paper do come in different colors. They have the colors listed on the website and when you call them they go over the colors with you.

Re: Help I can't find placecards that I can print onto

I bought placecards from a card store and clear avery labels from staples. I will print the labels with a caligraphy font from word and then place them on the placecards. This way the placecards don't need to be put in the printer. I printed my labels for the invitations this way also and it worked out great. Now I also have a complete list of names and address on the computer for thank you card labels. It's saved me alot of time.
