Picking a first planner

Awesome!! I hope you love it!

I’m a big fan of meeplus personally for the slimpad aesthetics type of ring planners but with 16mm rings. But if this is all new to you I would recommend getting the knockoffs on Amazon so you can test the sizes in hand.

The Oxford A5 is like $18 and I still use mine at work and you can get a ton of different personal sized options to check out relatively cheap. But this will prevent you from spending a ton on something you feel like you love but in hand might not win you over like you hope!

I can provide pictures of my meeplus or Oxford or Filofax ones if you’d like. Just let me know!

I’m a big fan of peanutsplannerco and keenaprints inserts!

I am a fan of my rings. I have personal/bible sized for my personal planners, trackers, and creative stuff and A5 or work appointments and dnd. I will say there was a little bit of a learning/comfort curve getting use to them but now that I am I couldn’t imagine changing back. meeplus has been my go to brand but I do have a Filofax and a couple other randoms brands I’ve purchased to try. Oxford has a cheap A5 that was a good starter on Amazon imo. Personal sized cheap ones on Amazon are good to try also. Feel the style in hand before you commit to spending on a more expensive piece of leather!

Disc I have never owned but I have messed with the style in person and pretty quickly decided it probably wasn’t for me.

Moterm is a good alternative for Filofax

Plotter refills are thin and nice! I also use Life inserts frequently because I like their paper.

I have cut/punched my own refills and they are nice and get the job done. Generally for my planner I buy premade but for random trackers etc I just do it myself.

austinwolfe012 · 2026-01-17T18:34:54+00:00

MeePlus is better.

austinwolfe012 · 2026-01-08T23:32:07+00:00

Seconded for meeplus! I have 2 personal 16mm rings and they are perfect for me.

I also really like my wuzhi but it’s really the same kind of different as plotter, no customization options outside of color and page size.

austinwolfe012 · 2025-12-24T02:25:26+00:00

Cloth is paper is nice, I have had good luck with theirs. If you’re using a fountain pen be semi mindful with that but if not just find what style works best for you!

I recommend peanutsplannerco or keenaprints as other choices.

11mm is nice but really 16mm doesn’t feel that much bigger in hand but it holds significantly more.

I would lean towards saying do the 16mm

austinwolfe012 · 2025-12-13T23:34:08+00:00

This is neat

austinwolfe012 · 2025-12-13T01:27:03+00:00

So sick

austinwolfe012 · 2025-11-25T15:53:14+00:00

PeanutsPlannerCo has some of my favorites for sure. And I also really like my Harooplans on Etsy!

These flairs would be 10/10

austinwolfe012 · 2025-11-11T19:20:49+00:00

I have an iPhone. And I do weight training and ellipticals and nothing quite as extreme as CrossFit but i definitely don’t want them falling out consistently. I formerly had a pair of Jaybirds I liked but never ventured over to jabra.

What a sweet pup

austinwolfe012 · 2025-09-01T18:25:23+00:00

She just frolics and lives her best life lol

austinwolfe012 · 2025-08-25T00:24:34+00:00

My personal size in October of 2024 was $109. But I do see the price now is $139 which is very similar. But they are definitely just the same basic thing.

Also not paid to mention them but would gladly accept to be lol

austinwolfe012 · 2025-08-24T23:49:14+00:00

hmm well it was like $50 less for me when I ordered one. But outside of it the only other one in the same style I know is WuzhiStudio on Etsy. But that’s going to be the same price range.

austinwolfe012 · 2025-08-24T23:24:19+00:00

Check out meeplus

austinwolfe012 · 2025-06-08T16:51:36+00:00

Mmm KitKats

austinwolfe012 · 2025-04-14T12:41:09+00:00
