For B&W film, search out some Tech pan. As you know it's discontinued but it's 
out there. It came in bulk rolls, 150ft which is about 30 rolls of 36exp give 
or take. You could also use one of the more modern microfilms like 
gigabit/copex/imagelink, but I haven't tried those. I don't think they come in 
bulk rolls and they also require their own developer which adds to the cost. 
Tech pan certainly would work best in technidol but is still usable in other 
developers. 

for color neg, I'd use Ektar 25 if you can find enough of it , or Ektar 100 
(the current modern version) if ektar 25 is too hard to find in quantity. 

for color slide, K25 or Velvia 50.
