Default Hexagon paper piecing

I have been looking online for precut hexagons (paper piecing). They seem a little pricier than I thought! Anyone know a good place to order? Thanks for your help....I really appreciate it.

I'm not sure where you've already checked, but I order all of my paper pieces from www.paperpieces.com. They are located in Sycamore, IL. If you know you're going to make a huge quilt, it's more economical to purchase a bag of 500 vs 100. They also have lots of pictures and ideas online if you're not sure what you want to make. I'm on my 4th English Paper Pieced quilt. Makes an awesome travel quilting project.

I bought mine from Paper Pieces online. You can use them over and over, I found the price reasonable and they are die cut so very accurate.
