Permadent and Plasticell are basically the same thing.  I have found
that Permadent runs a little less expensive than Plasticell.  This year
Mann-Lake is selling something called "RiteCell" in place of Permadent.
 Anybody out there have any experience with it?

I have found that Lapp Bee Supply @ 800-321-1960 has the best price on
Permadent, $.74 per 8 1/2"sheet in lots of 100.  If you're looking for
the best deal on Pierco frames, try Glorybee @ 800-465-7923, price per
frame $1.72.  I have found their price per frame as much as a dollar
lower per frame when buying less than 72 at a time.
