The same folks who make Reynolds Wrap and Reynolds (tin) foil here, make freezer paper on the roll. One box will likely last you for years, split the cost with a friend!

If so, that is probably the same freezer wrap that we are using for quilting. :D:D:D

I was going to suggest butcher paper. I think they are similar, if not the same. We just don't have butchers much here any more.

This company also sells it for $9.99 a box, you could try them, they are in Australia

Supermarkets don't stock it. Most quilt shops do - but it is about $17.95 for a box. It is 16 2/3 yards x 18". I bought a box over 10 years ago and I still haven't used half the roll.

Expensive, but it lasts a L-O-N-G time.

Butchers over here - if they use paper at all - use butchers paper - like the paper you get in kids cheap scrapbooks. Most use plastic bags.
