When I need personal size paper for my FF, I customize A4 paper to personal size. I was wondering is there a place where I can buy the paper already cut and ready to be printed on? I use FF blank paper, but I find that rather expensive. I do not need it to be hole punch, just personal size blank.

The advantage of course, is that it can hold most of what you'd need! So what I have done now is bought a slimline (11mm rings?) personal size to carry sheets that change often (and don't need much space), and bought an A5 filofax flex for my other stuff.
