Staples does have coupons for every cartridge you bring in, you get $3 Off (I do think you have a limit per transaction though) In order for me to get this FREE: $187.15 / $3 = 63 Cartridges. Nah! Shop online at eBay and I get the same below for;

4 x Black
2 x Magenta
2 x Cyan
2 x Yellow

$20 with Free Shipping!

Granted, it maybe an off brand, I have to say, 2 years ago - I bought this ink and I still have one black to go;

There's also a neat trick; Brother printers say you're out of ink when you're not! When I first purchased my printer, I got the starter ink. I figured I was going to need more soon. Well after I printed like 10 pages; the printer said I was out of ink, Go figure? I'm like already? So I shopped on eBay. Order and paid, they do have bigger quantiles of ink like 20-50, but 10 is lasting me 2 years as of now and here's why.

After I ordering, I be ginned to search for 'Printer Hacks' and behold, I found one for my printer; they say take out think and on the window of the cartridge there is a little window, put a piece of electrical or (I use the famous duct tape) and place over that window, place the ink back, might be little trick as it will have to make an indent into the tape so it will fit, but since it's dark the printer thinks the ink is full. After doing so, I was able to print about 150 more pages on my trial ink, cool huh?
