Love how the weekly comes with all the extra planning tools -- notes section, planning templates and expense trackers, and daily pages. This planner literally has it all. And this cover is so pretty!
I was inspired to get a Day Designer after finding one at a random store a couple of years ago. What changed my life - not an exaggeration - were the goal setting pages in the front. They followed a logical progression and the "big picture" one was especially helpful. The goal setting pages in the one I ordered this year are not as helpful. For example, they require every goal to have milestones, but many goal types don't lend themselves to that. Some of the goal setting pages are just not useful, e.g. "ideal month" is broken out by day??? Also, the 46 "today and to-do" pages are extraneous. Are you only expected to have 46 days in the year that require detailed planning? Just replace them with more goal setting pages in the front, take them out altogether, or make this a super complete planner with both a weekly overview and daily pages. I would totally buy that planner.
Thank you for your feedback! We always appreciate the opportunity to make sure our customers are fully educated on our products. The particular item you previously purchased at your local retail store to is part of the Day Designer x Blue Sky Collaboration, which is provided by Blue Sky. Day Designer, the original Flagship Edition Daily and Weekly Planner, partnered with Blue Sky in the design process for the Day Designer for Blue Sky collection, for the covers and pages to reflect the look and concepts behind the Day Designer brand. The layouts of our Flagship planners are simply the original planner, and a different product line from those sold at retail stores.
The Today & To-Do pages provided in our Flagship Weekly planners are conveniently placed in the back of your planner to utilize on your busiest days. If you're planning needs require daily planning, the Flagship Daily planners may be a better fit as they come with a daily page for the entire agenda year. We provide a helpful grid to show what comes inside the Flagship collection. You may view that here.

Love it!!
I don’t love it. The cover is very pretty, and I like the gold tabs. But it seems like they just shrunk down the big version rather than redesign the mini, so the text inside on the goal setting pages is tiny, even though there’s white space they could have used. Also, there sort of isn’t anywhere to actually write your yearly or monthly goals down after you brainstorm them. It’s confusing. I do like the weekly layouts and the undated daily pages. The “stay on track” pages are meh.
Also, the lamination on the ruler tore immediately.
Thanks so much for your feedback! We do keep the layouts of the mini planners the same as the full size planners; however, the layouts are adjusted for size, (length and width of pages), simply due to the mini being smaller!
All of our bookmark rulers come with a protective, clear plastic overlay that is intended to be removed before use. If you remove the coating off of the ruler, you should be good to go!
All of the Flagship Edition Daily and Weekly planners come with helpful goal-setting pages and worksheets help you live more productively and joyfully in the coming year. We have a blog available on our site that contains many helpful tips & tricks for setting up and utilizing your planner. You may find these articles helpful!
I’m revving up to use my new planner for the new year and have already been prepopulating info.
The only thing that has bothered me, and is why I didn’t give it five stars, is the Monday start date. Everything else in my life has a Sunday start date- kids schedules, work schedules, etc.
That’s gonna take a while to get used to.
If they have a Sunday start date option, then I overlooked it.
Otherwise, the quality of the paper is excellent- feels sturdy and easy to turn and write on.
I like the layout and think it will help me stay organized and motivated to use it daily all next year.
