The page layout is great. It would be perfect if it didn't require the assistance of a Sherpa to tote around. Essentially it has the same number of pages as the Moleskine wk-on-2-pages, but even without Aug-Dec 2011, it's 4 times the thickness.Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18275443362282241026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5763264385856038915.post-47400209283522752992011-08-14T23:09:17.506+01:002011-08-14T23:09:17.506+01:00Sorry I didn't get back sooner!

It weighs in at a whopping 1 lb, 13 oz! The one I ordered is Aug 11-Dec 12. I am trying to figure out if I can make it work (I didn't pay full price, by the way--I got it half-price through Plum District, and used a coupon code for $10 to cover shipping). I think I'll stick with the Moleskine until Dec. I'll remove Aug-Dec from the Erin Condren planner and see if I can get a smaller spiral binding put on at the office store. If it's too cumbersome, I'll use it for work (my work planner lives at the office). Clearly a mixed review!Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18275443362282241026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5763264385856038915.post-15656106397948697062011-07-25T02:22:32.297+01:002011-07-25T02:22:32.297+01:00Gina I had never heard of Erin Condren before so I...Gina I had never heard of Erin Condren before so I googled--very cute planner! I like the weekly layout a lot, and that there are monthly calendars and notes pages throughout. I couldn't find the dimensions anyplace, do you know what the measurements are?<br /><br />Thanks for the heads-up on this planner!Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03550291806241735598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5763264385856038915.post-4029587445515714562011-07-25T02:14:51.275+01:002011-07-25T02:14:51.275+01:00Have you tried the Erin Condren planner?

The Erin Condren planner appeals to me aesthetically and I love the layout, but I think it's just a little bit too big for me to throw in my purse. So tempting, though.Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18275443362282241026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5763264385856038915.post-55953342945635227332011-06-27T01:01:01.219+01:002011-06-27T01:01:01.219+01:00I have the 8 days a week planner.

They have month on 2-pages calendars embedded in the weeks, with week on 2 pages. They are great planners, with pretty covers. Here is my review of the 2010-2011 version:<br /><br />http://www.plannerisms.com/2010/07/plan-it-day-planners-august-2010-august.html<br /><br />I haven't seen their 2011-2012 version on Amazon yet, so I don't know for sure if they will be making them for the upcoming academic year. You can buy the 2011 calendar year ones here:<br /><br />http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=bl_sr_office-products?_encoding=UTF8&node=1064954&field-brandtextbin=Plan-It<br /><br />(They are on sale for super-low prices so if you tried it and changed your mind later you wouldn't be out much cash!)Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03550291806241735598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5763264385856038915.post-87414024404289561342011-06-16T14:10:21.823+01:002011-06-16T14:10:21.823+01:00I still can't decide what to use for the upcom...I still can't decide what to use for the upcoming academic year. I made my own planner last year--used a composition book and had my hubby design the pages, a week over two pages. I printed off of iCal monthly calendars--printed them on cardstock and glued them down, then put the weekly pages after the months. I filled in the dates for the weekly pages. I liked the system but it got so thick and heavy.<br /><br />I've poured over your blog trying to figure out what to get next time. I'm intrigued by the Academic Minister, the Moleskine ones, too. <br /><br />I want monthly views with weekly views after each month. I've found some planners like this at Barnes and Noble, but they month squares were too tiny to write anything in them.<br /><br />AARGH. I just want a planner that works.<br /><br />Thanks for your blog--it really does help me to see what options there are. <br />:-DAnnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11297226043133395214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5763264385856038915.post-58480533238100255202011-06-16T05:29:55.047+01:002011-06-16T05:29:55.047+01:00That RedStar Ink academic has a really interesting...That RedStar Ink academic has a really interesting weekly lay out.

Not to tempt you too much, but just to show you some other options if you're frustrated with what you're currently using. It's nice to know there are other options out there, and especially that people are coming up with all these unique and interesting formats!Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03550291806241735598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5763264385856038915.post-48005255115182289802011-06-16T04:10:04.027+01:002011-06-16T04:10:04.027+01:001.
