A Real Steal!

I love these notebooks. I bought about 20 of these during the Back to School promotion last summer. Every year I buy several just in time for school. Great price and great quality!
This product is fit for either a long or short day if taking notes at your seminars classes assemblies and conventions. There is ample room for you to format your page to accommodate for any thing you can think of. The nice large format of this notebook make me feel like I have plenty of space to work and the quad ruling makes the pages work well for note taking and drawing. I can easily and neatly remove important pages and put them in a 3 ring binder for reference. I take one with me everywhere to take notes and to journal. I have used these books for writing my poetry to taking notes at my assemblies and convention and find them reasonable priced and very useful
All spiral binders are not the same. Even my teenage daughters can tell you that. When they ask me for new binders they always want the "ones from Staples." What can I say?
These notebooks are great for the price! I buy a ton of them and use them up regularly. I keep one for expenses one for phone calls one for other financials etc. The cover is fine lasts as long as the pages do. By the time the pages are used up for me the cover is starting to tear and wear. I wouldn't buy these expecting them to last forever but for the incredibly cheap price they are just right for my uses. less than a dollar each or I wouldn't buy them I would buy one with more pages. Worth it to me!
I love Staples but honestly I usually do not purchase the "Staples" brand notebooks for my kids. I go with another brand whose price point is higher. My son needed additional notebooks but since its already the end of March and he's almost done with the school year I did not want to spend the money on my usual brand and instead purchased the Staples brand notebook. The overall quality of the notebook is cheaper...the paper is thin and its just a cheaper notebook. The cover is already falling off and its only been 7 days. I would never purchase this notebook again.
I've been using Staples brand notebooks for years. After my most recent purchase I'm shaking my head You've found three ways to reduce the quality of this everyday product: smaller pages fewer pages and thinner paper. What's left to cut? may leave a big holes in every other sheets? or maybe replace half the metal spiral with string? Can't you just leave well enough alone... and continue to deliver a good quality office product?
