i would suggest that you try either The Micro Center or Tiger Direct. They usually have good prices. Other places to try is Bj's or Costco.

I have used 123 inkjets in the past. Good quality and reasonable prices.

If you know someone with empty ink cartridges, I would turn those in to staples. You can get about $20 in staples credit(which you can use tax free in the store) and then you usually get a discount on ink.

I don't usually order online, but I did the last time, they were late and I ended up going to Walmart, but now I have enough ink for 6 months...

How much success have people had with the refillable kind?

I used to have hp officejet 4315 and the refurbished ink I got from cartridge world and ebay worked just fine for it. I never had any problems. Now I have a new Epson workforce 545 and the 127 color ink I got from ebay was terrible for it. The colors were bad, but the black worked just fine. The 126 version worked fine though. On the 127 that was bad I scanned the page that showed the bad print job and sent it to the seller. They refunded my money, which allowed me to buy the 126 cartridges. My Recommendation? Always test your cartridges even if they are OEM. Do a test print job to make sure they work properly. Once you are sure the do put a piece of tape over the ink hole so that it doesn't dry out. If the ink is defective try to get your money back. The efficacy of non oem ink depends on the type of ink  and printer from what I can see. Cartridgeworld.com is good to find locations in your area. I was told they use special ink specifically for that particular cartridge, unlike other places that use any kind of ink. You can also find ink on amazon too. You can search for terms like epson workforce 545 ink (for example) or use the ink type (epson workforce 545 ink 127) and compare prices on amazon and ebay. That's what I do concerning the ink I purchase.

I hope this helps.

Just google it and tri the site that come up and buy the best resonable prize. Thats what I did. I've use inkget123, and other sites I can't recall the name to. i also bough in ebay, but I found that the ebay ones didn't last long. I usually buy from HP the brand of my printer and they arrive in a day the most 2 days and when I buy form them I see my ink last longer then buying elsewhere. Good luck  :)

I buy my printer ink from Staples.  They have the most reasonable prices.  I also chose my printer because it cost a lot less to replace the cartridges.

@batmobile - Ink jet is expensive ink because it gives you no ink (only for 200 pages).  Laserjet "toner" cartridges do cost a little bit more...around $50-$120 but you can receive 5000 pages on one "toner" cartridge.
