I just returned from the Franklin Covey store to get pages for my planner. EVERY time that I make a purchase from that store, the price that they quote me is never what I pay! Today I was told if I got 1 more item, i'd get 15% off my total. Yet again, It didn't happen that way. Instead 15% was taken off 2 packages of lined paper. I am very angry. This is my last purchase.

Wow! I haven't posted since February??!!
Lots of things have transpired since then...
Let's see, I have purchased several planners since then...
1. Franklin Covey Vercelli binder in the classic size. I also got the Leadership daily pages to go with it. I only used it a couple times because the rings get in the way.
I knew that I wouldn't like that setup because I prefer spiral planners. I was talked into this by my cousin who was tired of my complaining that I had no where to write.
2. At-a-Glance Monthly Action Planner! Yes! finally! This baby is almost 100% of what I want!
Downside is, boring green color! Yuk!
3. Hot Chocolate Planner from Walmart - Got this after loosing my Action Planner. Gosh, what a bummer! This one is cool because I draw a line down the center to separate appointments from tasks. There's not a lot of note pages, but thats ok because I am disassociating myself with a lot of useless, meaningless things; therefore I no longer need that much room to write! :)
4. And in between numbers 2 & 3, I've purchased lots of spiral notebooks. I just seem to love them! And from Google, I've learned that I'm not alone!

On to Other Things!...
Well, I've finally gotten situated with my planner delima.
I feel like a load has been lifted because after 5 days I've chosen the planner I'm going to spend the rest of the year with. (yea right!)
So, now I can move on to something else!

Bye Bye Franklin Covey!
Well, its a woman's prerogative to changer her mind!
After being a die hard Franklin Covey fan, I have defected to At-a-Glance!
Franklin was great, however I always had to compromise.
All I wanted was a wirebound month/weekly planner with more than 3 pages of notes!
My goal was to eliminate the bulk, so I wanted a planner & notebook all in one. So, because Mr. Covey couldn't deliver, after numerous emails, non of which were acknowledged, I found At-a-Glance Monthly Action Planner, item # 70-EP07!
Its great! It has 46 note pages & 60 ToDo pages! Voila! My planner & notebook all in one!
Still a tiny drawback, there's no week view, but, I simply print a weeks worth from Outlook in classic size, slice them with a cutter, staple them, and slide them in the pocket of my Action Planner & I'm set! Oh and did I say, "pocket"! Yes! It has a pocket! (kinda of flimsy but, its there!)
Thank you, At-a-Glance!
It even fits in my Franklin Covey leather journal cover, which they no longer produce journals for!
The At-a-Glance is not as attractive as the FC planners but they have come the closest in providing what I need! And, it was on sale for $18 at OfficeMax!

My Franklin Covey Collection

Well, here's a fuzzy pic of my Franklin Covey Collection. I have a peach leather wirebound cover, 3 Classic Wirebound planners, Bright & Bold, 7 Habits and my favorite, Her POV. Also shown is my Leadership journal and the front cover from my Monticello Daily Planning Pages.
Is there a Franklin Covey 12 Step Program?? If so, where can I sign up??
