3D Printing: Good sources of filament "sampler" pack?


The Question: The local stores have started to stop selling filaments in the smaller 0.5 kg
spools, and it's getting harder to maintain an assortment without buying lots
of big spools.
I mainly just want a bunch of different colors (red, black, blue, green, etc.),
ideally as a bunch of small spool "samples" or like a "sampler pack". -- Even
if they're at .25 kg spool sizes... -- I don't want to spend a ton of money on
buying and storing a ton of 1.0kg - 2.0kg spools.
I prefer to print in PLA, but ABS is fine. I can only print 1.75mm filament.
The seller should to be able to ship to western US, and have filament of decent
quality that's not going to ruin my printer.
What do you recommend?
