FYI...Unless I did it wrong I was only able to use 1 referral code ($10 off) per order. I thought I'd be able to combine referral codes to get approx $40 off my next order but it didn't allow me to do it.

I've just started checking out the YouTube videos. I'm thinkin' about it. It's really cute, but that's a lot of money for a planner.

i know, it is ridiculously expensive! I shock myself about wanting to buy it, LOL, but i'm so massively disorganized and have tried SO many DIY options that i'm going to take a (big) chance and purchase it!

It's too big for me to be carrying around everywhere. I all ready have a purse that's big enough to carry an ipad for my special needs son. I don't want to add the extra bulk. I like the idea of having smaller planners for different subjects that stay at home; exercise, diet, crafts, home projects, etc... ETA: The setup doesn't work for me either. I prefer the Mom's Weekly Planner instead. I like to have separate columns for me and my 3 kids. Here's a link: www.amazon.com/Butterflies-Weekly-Planner-18-Month-Calendar/dp/1441314105/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1413578337&sr=8-4&keywords=2015+Mom%27s+Weekly+PlannerI'd like a bit more room for writing notes, but so far this is the one I've found that suits my needs the best. I have thought of getting an additional one of these and changing column names to subjects I want to work on and keeping it at home. I haven't seen the Erin Condren planner in person, so maybe this one is the same in size and bulk as mine?  |

No- I bought one 2 years ago when they were 50% off and I thought that was expensive lol! I found it to be too large and bulky to carry around. They are nice though.

Tell me more about the planner... what makes it so expensive? I wish I knew! It's really cute & all, but $50?!! And I'm guessing from the looks of it that you have to buy a brand new one every year - not like my not-so-cute Dayrunner that I only have to replace the calendar pages in. Too rich for my blood. |

Most of the planners are 18 mos for $50. The covers are personalized which makes each one unique. I love mine & $50 wasn't much more than I spent each year for Franklin Covey refills after the initial investment for a binder. I keep my LP at my desk & use it for personal & business. I don't tote it around so the bulkiness doesn't bother me.

It looks like a great tool. I have never used a planner or even worn a watch (in the last 20 years). I am one of the most anal people I know. Doesn't mesh. I have a small calendar on the fridge. If it doesn't fit in the square, it isn't happening.

I don't find the price prohibitive -- it's all relative. I just don't think my life is busy enough for the investment right now.
That may change when I return to the office full-time next year. I just think I want to look at being more electronic in my organization.

I've used the EC planner for several years and enjoy it. I like the format and think it's cute. I the the quality is fine and have never had any issues with any of mine. It's like anything...we all prioritize differently. I'm more inclined to use it if it's cute! Prior to EC I used a Franklin (which was fine) and the Amy Knapp Family Planner. I really enjoyed the format of the Amy Knapp planner as well and it's very reasonably priced. LOVE the menu/grocery list tear off! I always altered the cover to make it fun but it looks like she has different designs now. www.familyorganizer.com/product.aspx?id=175 |

It looks great, I have never heard of this planner before. I would like to do a little more research but this would be a great option. Thanks for sharing.

I use a Franklin Covey system since my work provides it. I'm late to the EC/Filofax craze but really love these EC planners. Not sure if you all were aware but Tiny Prints carry a couple of EC's planners!
