My tip is to use the google fonts.

They can be downloaded, and some has a licence to use them for print design: www.fonts.com/web-fonts/google

There are a few websites which have sprung up recently offering font bundle packages. Some are offered free and some are more premium. I have found the ones which you have to buy of better quality and you can pick up some pretty good deals at the moment, best one I have found so far was here fontbundles.net

You can join creativemarket.com. They've always got new goodies to share, and the pricing will really stretch your gold coins.

I'm just like you as far as being a habitual "borrower" of fonts. At one point, I borrowed the entire Adobe library (2000+) from the newspaper :- Ironically, there were so many fonts, and so many looked similar to one another (think Helvetica and Arial for example), that combing the library became overwhelming, and I deleted the whole thing.

Since then, I've stuck to my favorite 5-12. I know how to group them (headings/body) and if a client, or I want something "modern", going to creativemarket, or MyFonts is easy enough.

If you haven't already... sign up for the MyFonts.com e-newsletter. While not always in a bundle, there are quite often huge discounts on the fonts showcased in their e-newsletter. I'm talking 0-0 fonts for under . Massive deals. The showcased fonts are often new designs.

In fact, an excellent example if you like the font: www.myfonts.com/fonts/rene-bieder/campton/ (was on sale, now 0)
