- May 19-23 The Factory Outlet paper sale will be May 19-23 from 10-4 each day. If you have questions, you can call them at 547-3736. Basically, you pay $10 (last year's price) for a paper sack (the size from Marsh, etc.). You walk away with whatever you can put into the sack. It's an incredible deal!!!! I buy all my paper products this way for the entire year. We celebrate each holiday longer since we're using the paper stuff and my kids think it's great to have fun plates, cups, and napkins.
