A ream (500 sheets) of 8½ x 11 newsprint (which is the same thing as manilla paper I believe) sells for $3.56 at Dick Blick and works great for paper piecing without having to cut anything down to size for your printer. That works out to less than ¾ of a penny per sheet. Many of the reviews on Blick's website are from quilters who use it.
