I gotcha. I guess the crux of the issue is that, since I'm new to the hobby, I have yet to establish a baseline for "normal" sanding time through the grits. Thus, I notice how excellently a 'fresh' piece acts and it seems like a huge difference versus a 'medium' piece.
Thanks for the the bulk buying tip. This is the set I bought as my first batch. I've noticed that I use the lower grits much much more than the higher grits so, for the next round, I'll probably buy a 25-50 pack of the lower ones for sure.
I also got a few 8.5x11 sheets of 80-400 but I've only used them for corners that I can't reach w/ the ROS so far, so they should last me a while.
I like the mirka gold multipacks which gives 10 each of 5 different grits. That way it gives you a variety and you can buy 50 packs of the grits that you're running out of the most quickly.

It completely depends on your financial situation, but I would recommend just buying your own tools. You will get more than your moneys worth if you hang on to them for 5-10 years. Which is very easy with proper care.
Here are some cheaper yet not terrible options on Amazon. These should get most jobs done around the house.

If you want to go with another method outlined here you can use a regular drill. Tons of uses for a drill other than sanding down your skillet.
