i buy tape in bulk from McMaster-Carr. its the same stuff but you don't pay hockey prices for it because it's really used for various industrial uses in bulk.

Sure it can be annoying to keep spending money on something like tape, but it is just part of playing the game. I use wax on the tape & am not picky on how it looks so I can usually go 10+ games before I re-tape & re-wax. I have to replace my laces every once in a while too, but tape & laces are a lot cheaper than skates & sticks at least. I play golf & dislike losing golf balls, but you learn to accept it as part of playing the game.

I re-do my tape maybe once every 4-5 games. I only play 1-2 times a week. 2-3 roll of tape might last me an entire season. It's not a big deal.

When compared to other consumer products tape IS cheap. You can always buy in bulk for lower rates. I re-tape after every use and don't consider it to be expensive, especially when it's helping to protect a $200 investment.

Here's tape barely more than $1 a roll. Make a small investment and prolong the life of your stick.

If you're complaining about $2 rolls of tape... on a site comprised of gear whores who have more gear than anyone could ever need.. you're barking up the wrong tree
