Meijer Brand Notebooks


George697

Recommended Posts

If you live in the US in an area that has a meijer store(i live in Ohio and they are everywhere) it might be worth checking out their notebooks. I have one that is several years old that i found laying around and have started using it as the notebook i use with my fountain pens to write things down. Why? Its not the smoothest paper but you can get it for something like 20 cents a notebook right now and it has no feathering and no showthrough with most of my inks and only bleeds when i hit it with my noodler's ahab and some flex. The one that i own was made in Vietnam and with school being just one week away i myself will definately pick some up (im working my way through college, i dont have money for rhodia or clairfontaine haha). Just a discovery to share with others!

Handy information to have. Thanks!

Thanks! Not too many days ago I wandered past their back-to-school section and wondered whether their notebooks were any good. Probably won't buy any this year, because I stocked up at Staples, but I'll keep it in mind next summer.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
