Personal Planner Review & Competition
Sunday, October 20, 2013Way back in June when I was lucky enough to attend Britmums Live, I was sat in my first ever blogging conference and have to say I felt a bit overwhelmed as it was all so new to me. Sometimes through some of the talks and speeches I felt a bit lost and sat with a lovely notebook that had been there waiting for me when I arrived at the table. Each blogger that attended received one, it was a lovely notebook and I found myself doodling in it while I felt like I should have been taking notes! It didn't go to waste though, I did at a few points make notes in it and have been using it regularly since to write down all my important blogging related notes. I use it to tell me what deadlines I have set myself for reviews. I also use it to write about products I've received before I start writing the reviews.
Since Britmums, I received an email from the team at Personal Planner who gave me a code for a free Personal Planner and asked me to run a competition for them too. They didn't ask me to even write a review but I thought I would let you all know what I think of the product anyway.
I found the website very easy to navigate. The hardest part was choosing which size planner! In the end I chose large as I thought it would be the perfect size for my change bag and perfect shape for my favourite family photo to be used on the front. The planner is also available in small, medium and A5. I went for a pink colour scheme inside to brighten it up and was very happy with the amount of choice colour and theme wise. You get complete control of how you want it setting out, whether you want lines or big open boxes. I went for half and half. There are a number of blank pages at the back and you can choose from a long list of choices of what you use them for. Me being a big kid decided on colouring pages! yes I have colouring-in pages in my diary! So if I'm ever stuck somewhere boring pretending to take notes I can just sit and colour and look busy. Genius!
I am very pleased with my personal planner and although i've set it to start in January I have already been adding next years important dates inside and can already promise you now that next year I will be purchasing a personal planner for 2015!
