Daytimer Planner Refill Suggestions Needed

[Guest Ray Cornett]

I have an older leather DayTimer planner that is about 5x7 inches. The refills are now absolutely outrageously priced. I would love to find some good quality paper, book style, refills, blank as well as planner style, to use with this. It needs to be able to slip into the right side using the back cover. Any suggestions?

Hi, I bought a 'Flex' in 'slim' format last year, and never did get the diary for it. (It is sold without diary, but with 2 lined jotpads.)

But recently found the Collins Elite range fits it well.

Dimensions are 6" tall by 3 1/2" wide. Diary is spiral bound, with a cardboard back and a clear vinyl front protector page.

More info at; http://www.collinsdebden.com

But more important to me that I could buy that diary in the high street stationer's shop.

(Added next day); Otherwise you might find a suitable notepad in Rhodia's range,

The first site seems to be Europe/UK but I am in the US which would cancel out making the pads I need affordable and the second site link is dead.

The Pocket size (6.5" x 3.5") wire bound refills would fit that cover. I used to use that type of planner and you're right - the refills are expensive. Here's some from At-a-Glance close to that size at a lot lower price than Day-Timer or Franklin-Covey.

Amazon also had one from House of Doolittle (first I heard of them).

You can probably find similar at a well stocked stationary or office supply store. I bet if you just walked down their aisles with your cover in hand, you'd find something. :-)
