My OCD record keeping habits have required me to purchase this every year since the 70's! It keeps my personal spending perfectly in check with separate columns for keeping track of cash bank account and charges. No surprises for me when the bills come!
A good many of us despite being tuned to things electronic find that it suits to keep our personal spending records day to day in a columned ledger. Call it old-fashioned call it what you will. It works for us. ~~~ I might add Staples had this item available - with a choice on the number of columns in it - when some other places did not. I was very pleased to find it pay a reasonable price for it & line up on 2015.
I have purchased Staples' Columnar Book 2 Columns for many years to maintain a running cash balance for both our personal and professional accounts. There's plenty of room for reminders and for detailed descriptions of expenses for our bookkeeper's reference when she is reviewing bank statements and creating our financials. We have taught our children to use these accounting books as well as a start to their personal financial planning and budgeting. I'm pleased that Staples continues to keep them in stock - both online and in the store.
