Planners & Personal Organizers
We all lead busy lives, and in order to make sure that all of our events, appointments and important dates are properly noted, it’s important to have one place to write them all down. While desk calendars are great for looking at yearly and long-term goals, for day-to-day goal tracking, you can’t beat a day planner. Day planners are versatile, durable and endlessly customizable. Learn more about day planners below.
How to Create Your Routine with a Day Planner?
Day planners and appointment books offer a portable way for multitaskers to stay on top of work. No matter how organized you are, a planner can be an essential tool to make your organizational efforts even easier. Planners allow people to write down things like daily to-do lists, meetings notes, daily and monthly goals and important dates so they won’t forget them.
In addition to keeping track of your life, daily planners can be used for bullet journaling, scheduling or brainstorming big ideas. With to-do lists, goal trackers and special pages for additional planning, it’s easier to stay on top of everything you need to remember day to day.
Planners can come dated or undated, making them a versatile tool that can fit into most everyone’s life. Additionally, they come with different types of paper, pages, and designs that let you customize them to your heart’s content.
What Colors Do Day Planners Come In?
There are a variety of color and design options available at Staples that make it easy to find a day planner that’s perfect for you and your expressive style. Whether you like muted and neutral colors or prefer bold colors and patterns, there is a planner available for you.
Design themes range from nature and wildlife to science and the arts. To add an even more unique personality to your organizer, you can add stickers, sticky notes, use highlighters, or even write in different colors to completely make it your own.
What’s the Best Day Planner Size?
There are a number of size options available, and the best one for your needs depends on what you’ll be using it for, how you’ll carry it and how you plan to store it. Day planners come in large, medium, and small sizes.
Small day planners measure around 4 x 6 inches and smaller. They are designed to fit in small bags and purses, and can be carried easily. They’re best for short, quick notes that don’t require too much note-taking.
Mid-sized day planners have dimensions between 6 x 9 inches to 4 ⅞ x 8 inches, and they combine the portability of small planners and the bigger note capacity of larger planners. They can fit in backpacks, larger purses and carry-on luggage.
Large units measure 8 x 10 inches, standard letter size, or larger. Letter-sized day planners can fit it in backpacks and laptop bags, which is great for students and office workers.

Staples offers day planners from a variety of top brands, so you can select the perfect planner for your daily routine. Some of the most popular brands available include Blue Sky, TF Publishing, AT-A-GLANCE, and TRU RED.
