From the Manufacturer

The Post-it^® Note was invented as a solution without a problem. In 1968 Dr. Spencer Silver, a 3M scientist, developed a unique, repositionable adhesive. As remarkable as it was, the product could not find a market. Six years later, colleague Art Fry recalled Silver's seminars promoting the light adhesive when he was daydreaming about a bookmark that would stay put in his church hymnal. The rest is history.

Today, Post-it^® boasts more than 4,000 unique products and has become one of the most well-known and beloved brands in the world.

Are All Post-it^® Paper Products Recyclable?
Yes. 3M has conducted recycling trials on Post-it^® Notes at recycled paper mills. The adhesive does not interfere with paper recycling, because the adhesive is substantially removed in the paper de-inking process. The dyes in the paper are also removed in this part of the process.

Are Post-it^® Notes Made from Recycled Paper?
Yes. Many different colors and sizes of Post-it^® Notes are available with paper containing at least 30 percent post-consumer recycled content. In addition, 3M offers 100 percent recycled content notes in canary yellow and assorted pastel colors. The 100 percent recycled content notes contain 70 percent pre-consumer and 30 percent post-consumer fiber. Post-it^® Easel Pads are also available with 30 percent post-consumer content paper.

2.0 out of 5 stars These pads have half as many post its as the usual pads, December 13, 2010

This review is from: Post-it® Notes, Original Pad, 3 Inches x 3 Inches, Canary Yellow, 4 Pads per Pack (Office Product)

The description is misleading. It says "Four pads" but these pads are really thin and have about half the number of post its as the usual size pads. Nowhere in the description does it state how many sheets are in each so I just assumed these were the standard size pads you get everywhere. These are really equivalent to 2 pads you buy in the store.

I got these on a gold box deal, which is a good thing other wise they would be going back! the packs are only 50 sheets per, so really it is only the size of two normal stacks. Normally, Post-its come in stacks of 100. Nowhere on the description does it say they are any smaller than normal size, or the actual number of sheets per pack.

These guys make my life worth living. Without a constant stream of Post-it notes, my life would be a sad shambles. Especially in a work environment, these notes are essential. I live these because the colors appeal to me (I've never been a big fan of the weak Gatorade colored originals) and make it even more enjoyable to leave notes on my and others desks.

Easily one of the best inventions of the 20th century (right up there with playdough) Post-its are fantastic.
