keep a paper towel in the bag or covered bowl that you store lettuce in.

The first thing is to only use stainless steel knives when cutting anything that would brown. Using any kind of lemon juice (bottle or fresh) dampen a napkin with juice and wipe your blade before starting and a couple more time through the cut process. Before placing unused lettuce in a zip lock bag, wipe all cut surfaces of lettuce. It helps tremendously keeping the lettuce pretty till the next use.
