I know this is an old thread but decided to throw in my experience.
If you live in the USA and have a Costco membership try out their Kirkland brand Photo glossy paper.
It is cheap (about US$13 for 100 8.5"x11") and the quality is superb.
If you have access to a color laser printer try out the Xerox Digital Color Supreme Gloss, very nice as well (but kind of pricey).
