I'd be willing to bet that if I looked in my AD&D 2nd Edition books that are in my attic, I probably have a character or two stuffed in the books, on engineering computation paper.
I have a friend whose family owns a dollar store. Nothing in there loses them money, there are no loss-leaders at a dollar store. Heck, most of the items have at least a 250% markup. They make money on quantity sold throughout the store. Each item is super cheap to purchase but has a great markup and sells through quickly to get new product in.
They do carry a few non-dollar items like flowers and some basic convenience store things like milk and such for the neighborhood that don't follow that markup. Everything else though has insane markups. It's cheap, usually chinese-made stuff that works well enough.
Amazon has 100-sheet engineering paper for $6.14, and it has Prime shipping. That 100-sheet pad costs them way less than $1 to purchase in bulk wholesale.
Heck, even Follett sells 500-sheet packages for only $15.49.
I'll try to be specific with what I recommend, giving brands and models if I can. Bear in mind, I'm from a STEM major, so some of this is stuff I've used for math and other related classes that you might not need.
Here's some other random things I didn't think of before I realized I need them in the moment. I try to keep these things in my backpack most of the time:
Surge Protector - I do all my studying in the library, and if I don't get there early, all the desks with outlets get snatched up quickly (especially near midterms and finals). I ended up picking up a cheap one at Micro Center and keep it in my backpack in case I need to sit somewhere further away. Also, it helps others that aren't close to one either. :)
Noise-Cancelling Headphones - I study in the "absolute quiet" floors, but even then some people make some noise just shuffling papers, zipping-unzipping stuff, eating lunch, etc. You don't need the Bose fancy ones; anything that keeps the noise out (and, I should mention, your own music IN) will work.
Chegg/Wolfram Subscription - These saved my academic butt so many times. Wolfram might not be necessary if you're only taking one math course as a GEP requirement, but if you're taking up to Calc2 or 3 it's great. It can solve integrations and derivatives, but, more importantly, it will also show you a step-by-step solution. Chegg, however, I think is worth it for nearly any class. I've only had one or two textbooks whose answers weren't on there, and for the others it was a lifesaver. Professors will sometimes not post solutions or answers to problems in class or on homework, and books will often only have the answer in the back. Chegg, however, not only has the answer, but, more often than not, has step-by-step solutions. I used this all the time for two things specifically: 1) Check my homework before I turn it in to make sure I understood the processes (and got the answers right), and 2) doing practice problems from the book that the professor didn't address or post solutions for.
Hope this helps!
Buy a shit ton of this and a sponge to mop up your tears.
notability. click wrench. click paper. select green backdrop, select grid (bottom row) === engineering paper
This is the kind of engineering paper I use for everything (I picked the first link I saw, which happened to be amazon, but you can probably find it for the same price or cheaper at an office supply store, or for $16 a ream at my university book store).
The grid on this kind of paper is actually printed on the back of the paper; when you have it on the ream, the grid from all the pages sort of adds up and is visible through the sheet, but once you take off the page, you can’t see it anymore. It’s nice for keeping things organized while writing, them when you take it off it looks super clean.
I like this stuff so much that I made a template of it in Krita when I switched to digital.
(If you meant, “where do I get old exam sheets,” then good luck. If you have friends in school, they may be willing to part with some. Your library might have scrap paper too. Or you can go back to college, but short of building your own paper mill, that might be the most expensive way imaginable to get scratch paper).

This FEA package
Same here. But I've found that the green-ish computation pads, while expensive, work beautifully for doing math.
Thank you for the contest! Hope your course went well!
I would love this booklet of computation paper which is required for my assignments. It would save me lots of time printing!

I don’t know if this is exactly what you’re looking for, but I use it for all of my notes. As long as the piece is left in the pad the lines are pretty visible and once removed it just looks like you write pretty straight
Unfortunately, several companies sell the comp pads with no on-page branding. I'm guessing from the first image that you're looking for a green pad but some companies offer a buff pad using the same paper, tan with a brown grid. Might be an alternate option to use while searching.
If Ampad isn't to your liking, you might also look into

If you can find the white kind I recommend it.
Any university book store.
It's expensive.

Just get engineering paper, its gridded and probably a lot cheaper than anything else

I hope it's what you're looking for.
I have been single my whole life. Never been asked on a date, never been kissed etc. I'm just waiting for the right guy to come along! Without a SO I still accomplished being valedictorian of my high school class and am now on honor roll in my third year of studying Engineering.
Here is something that is helpful in my studies! :)
I used these guys. Just pop them is a binder and go. At $7 my student budget approves.

TOPS Engineering Computation Pad, 8-1/2" x 11", Glue Top, 5 x 5 Graph Rule on Back, Green Tint Paper, 3-Hole Punched, 100 Sheets is all I ever use. I use them for notes, sketches, even tracking HP when I'm DMing in my D&D campaign...
The coveted TOPS green
I've only even used green, and I've seen white paper once.
