Kinkos or home?

Just thought I'd ask here since I'm sure many of you make photocopies on a regular basis...

What is more cost efficient? Going to Kinkos (or Staples) or doing it at home. I probably have to make upwards of 50 copies.

Is it just a one off? You could do it at home but I think it's more cost effective to do it at a copy place. It also gives you the option to complain if they aren't quite right. I'd add TPH to your list of places. Sometimes they are competitive with Staples. Not a big fan of Kinkos personally.

Thank you.

One copy, fifty copies or more, it is always cheaper at Kinkos or Staples.

FYI - Years ago staples had self serve copies where you make your own copies and went up to pay at the cash on the honor system. Now that you have to buy a prepaid card to get copies, there are no longer any crowds at the self serve. When it was self serve on the honor system most people made 50 copies and paid for 10.

If you're in toronto there are some cheap copy shops along college near u of t, that copy text books for students and stuff like that. Cheaper than kinkos.
