Not looking to spend a fortune on paper but want good results. Anybody know any good sites?

What type of printer/make do you have?
Jessops is always a good place to start

I use www.xlshop.com for most of my consumables. Prices are fairly good and the service has always been excellent.

I'm using an Epson 660 at the moment, just not sure which GMS of paper to go for.

I have a 660 as well unfortunately

It isn't the greatest of printers at the best of times and using the cheapo replacement cartridges I have been using the quality is significantly worse (that'll teach me to be a skinflint).
When it was new though and the novelty had yet to wear off I used to get decent results using A4 glossy 190gms

I had a 660 got best results using Kodak picture paper glossy 190gms it isn'tvery glossy but you can print both sides of the paper . Handy if you are doing test prints
