As anyone with an ink printer knows, new cartridges cost an arm and a leg. So what many people do is visit their friendly ink cartridge shop for a recycled and refilled cartridge, or they buy kits to DIY it at home. According to this USA Today article, bigger stores are looking for a piece of the inky action. Walgreens plans to launch a new refill service at 1,500 stores, and OfficeMax and Office Depot are also testing the concept. For small-time cartridge businesses, this could spell bad news.

As with all businesses, the corporate behemoths take over but it’s the nature of the beast right? We just need to adapt and improve, ink and office supplies are not immune…. nothing is.
