Anecdote 2026 Planner (8.5" x 10") Daily Planner Weekly Monthly Planner - 52 Weeks w/Library Buckram Cover, Brass Spiral - A4 Size Bleed-Resistant Paper – Mustard

This is the most underrated planner I've encountered. As a lifelong planner who is DEEP in the "planner community," I've tried a ton of brands and formats, and this one needs to get it's time in the spotlight!! First, the FEEL of it. It just feels good in hand. I love the floppy/soft nature of the covers so it's easy to stash in a bag or carry around with a laptop. The paper is smooth and nice quality, so I can scribble with whatever pen I have on hand that day. I love that it's UNDATED! So I can pick up whenever, and I don't worry about unused days when I'm on vacation and don't need a planner. It also comes with tabs for the monthly and weekly pages which is so helpful to just have those included. It's super functional, with the schedule section, room for notes, and prioritization. The green cover is my favorite -- it looks so classy with the bronze coils. I love this planner so much. Highly recomend!

This is a great planner for me - the cover and pages feel sturdy which is important since I’m traveling with it and don’t want the pages or covers to just fall apart. It has a great design and I can log basically anything I would need with the generous amount of writing space.

The media could not be loaded. This is a really cute and affordable planner. It has a notes section at the beginning of the week and then each day of the week is set up like a daily with an entire half of the page dedicated to each day. It’s a little larger than what I would normally use at 8X10.It has all the undated monthly calendars (labeled by month) at the beginning of the planner with all the weeklies following. Additional note pages at the back.I think the ideal user would be an office professional, someone working from home, or a stay at home mom. It’s not got a super sturdy cover and the pages are 100 GSM so not the thickest. I need a planner I can pull in and out of my bag and move around in my work space, but if you’re going to keep it open on your desk at all times, it would be perfect for you.The paper is surprisingly opaque given it’s 100 GSM. Minimal ghosting and shadowing as you can see in my video. It’s not a white white color if that’s what you’re looking for. If you look at my comparison photo, next to a bright white, it looks warmer. The only time you’d really notice is if you use white out for mistakes.My bestie works from home so I am totally going to give this to them to use. The cover is an adorable berry blue toned pink that isn’t quite able to be picked up in photos.**I was given this product for free, but thoughts and opinions given are my own.

I'm a planner and was excited to try this one. I like the daily/weekly set up for the pages on this one but I'm not a fan of the monthly pages being at the front of the planner. I also like that if I go on vacation for a week I don't actually lose any pages because I can add the dates myself.

I've been searching for a planner for months in stores but I always held off because I wanted a paper version of a digital workflow I had based around daily/weekly todo lists and the timetagger website (ie time blocking).This planner not only matched that workflow, but did so with high quality cream paper in sturdy binding.The Evergreen colour was a little darker/less saturated than I expected, but it still brings a nature-y vibe to my desk. It is a soft-cover, but it's textured, strong and allows the thicker planner to not be too heavy.The plastic page markers are durable, easy to switch between pages and well designed.This planner is un-dated, so you'll need to write in your own month/day names and numbers. This allows you to start using it at any time of the year, but adds a little overhead to getting started every month.Finally, the format of setting daily priorities as something seperate from your daily tasks is a practice that I would recommend no matter what planner you use.

This planner is great for people who are used to bullet journaling but are looking for a pre-designed planner, like me. I loved bujo but I was losing creativity and motivation for setting up the spreads each month.I do like how the months and weeks are undated, so you can fill them out yourself. The monthly calendars are huge and allow enough space to actually write in things. I can also still color code things like I used to do in my bujo. I wish that the yearly overview had more room to write in things ahead of time, but I guess I can use a sticky note until I setup future months.I like that the weeks are separate from the months as you can easily flow into the next month without having the annoying switch you get when the monthly calendar and corresponding weeks are put together, but it does mean you have to flip back and forth, but the movable Month and Week markers are easy to move around and help with this. The weeks starting out on Monday is perfect as that's how I prefer my journal.I will need to get used to the size of this planner as it's quite large compared to what I'm used to and I'm not sure I will get a bunch of use out of the daily Priorities and To-Do lists as I do them as weekly lists vs breaking it out each day.
