Something seemingly insignificant turned out to be completely infuriating. The holes for a 3-ring binder have been punched too far in from the spiral-bound spine on these notebooks. I had bought a 6-pack 4 months ago for my fall semester and didn't have any issue using them with the standard-duty 1inch binders I had purchased along-side them. This new package doesn't flip properly in a 1inch binder the holes are stamped at least a quarter-inch further away from the spine which causes the notebook to get stuck when you try to flip it inside the binder. I went back to the store to see if it was maybe just a mistake in production but every other one was the same way now... the single pieces the 3-packs even the other brands like Mead and stuff. Maybe the school/office supply industry is trying to force us into getting larger size binders? Pros/Cons are irrelevant I suppose since you can still write in them...

These are a great value or students and most people take a few classes at once so you don't have to go back to the store to get more!
