Where do you stock up on sandpaper?

Now that I have my bench build, I need to fill the drawers with sandpaper. Going to stock up on Silicon carbide for wet or dry and aluminum oxide for my woodworking projects.

In the past I've been just grabbing a pack of various grits or types when on a project, but per pack pricing is high. Especially 3M.

I've been burned in the past with off name brands. Wears out too quickly, etc.
Anyone got a mail order place to buy at better pricing with good quality? Or just a good price on 3M? It's got to be cheaper somewhere if I'm not buying all that packaging to hold 4 sheets.

I was hoping Benchmark Abrasives had sheet stock since their flap discs work so damned good.

Zoro's pricing is all over the place. $80 for 25 sheets ($3.20 per) of 220 grit, But 500 grit, 50 pack is only $35 (.70 per) Both are Norton silicone carbide.
Looks like if I cherry pick at Zoro I can get good prices, but if I stock up, I'm getting bent over.
