Hi Jostein, you will get refillable cartridges (can be filled with ink at home a number of times) or one time filled cartridges (which I can also fill) for as low as $ 1 apiece from AliExpress (Ali Baba com) China. Note, AliExpress is like eBay here in the US / Canada. The link is here:-

Jostein, It's probably the most popular brand of window (and kitchen counter) surface cleaner in the US: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windex "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" movie had a big reference to it. (Btw, that was a nice comedy, imho.) And I referred to that movie in my response as well.
