I have found some 3-ring books at
www.createforless.com. They have a lot of cool stuff there. They have many albums by Making Memories and other brands.
I have a couple of 3-ring from Westrim Crafts, I think, but they do tend to pull at the holes. I only use these to put larger memorabilia and 8x10 portraits in sleeves in chronological order for later scrapping.
For my paper scrapping, I have always used Creative Memories for my albums, pages, and protectors. They are the
only ones I will use (other than ones I have gotten for the kids.) I know they are expensive, but they REALLY expand to fit my pages, they were the ones I learned how to use (strap-hinge)...plus I bought a bunch when a friend was going out of business!!
