Where can i find cheap but quality paint?

We would like to paint all of the walls in our new home. Where is the best place to find affordable paint at a good quality?Where can i find cheap but quality paint?
We painted our house top to bottom a few years ago and the cheapest but seems like the BEST paint we have ever bought was from The Home Depot, Brand was Glidden Paints. I wish we knew this earlier - we only painted 2 rooms using this brand and believe me, it IS a better quality paint than Sico, Behr and Benjamin Moore House Paints. Wish I knew about it earlier - we would of saved a ton of money!!





TRUST ME - It's WORTH it!!!! - Quality is incredible and you really don't have to put on a second coat - the thickness and covering is awesome!


YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!!!!Where can i find cheap but quality paint?
Sears would be a good place I get it from there all the time.
I would suggest Walmart. They have quality paint at a much cheaper price. They can also mix the colors to suit you.
The Lowes stores that I have been to have oops paint. That is paint mixed for someone that didn't like it that is marked down to around $10./gal. This could be their brand or a higher brand. I buy them and sometimes mix to get another color. I never buy full price unless I want a special color.
I would sat go to ace hardware or walmart.
Wal-Mart, where else?
Hang out at Home Depot or Lowes and wait for returns. Usually, they add some color to the return so people don't return and then rebuy paint on purpose. If you develop a nice relationship with the Associate doing the recoloring, they may text you to let you know a usable color has come in (possibly...I have never asked, this was just suggested by a friend) or (better chance) hang out by the return department and look at the colors. They put a dot on the lid so you can tell. A down-at-the-heels friend painted an entire house this way once, and it looked great!





This paint will cost you less than half price.
Behr Paint at Home Depot works very well! If you paint properly you are gauranteed to only need one coat! Behr paint is very true to theirs colors as well!
Wal-Mart paint is just fine, and about half the price of what you'd pay at Home Depot or somewhere similar.
