Bubble Planner- Review & Giveaway!

I am a list person. If I don't have a list, I don't have my brain. I am great at thinking ahead and planning, but it all very quickly escapes my brain, then as quickly as it came... it is gone.




Well, the other day, I came across something called the Bubble Planner. The word "planner" always intrigues me, as well as the word "bubble" used with it. =) I read into it and thought it sounded like something I had to try.





Bill, from the Bubble Planner Company graciously sent me a Bubble Planner for Busy Women AND a grocery list.




Now this planner is super simple and easy to use. I thought it would be a little more complex, but it really is very easy! User Friendly! On the inside are pages for goal setting (of all kinds), projects, places to keep track of birthdays, and calendars. There are also the planning bubbles like shown here:



On each open page there are places to make phone calls, computer work, house work and running errands. And in the bubbles you can fill out what you need to do each day. Like mine for today~ calls I had to make were to a campground to change reservations, and to call my aunt. Computer work was to blog about the bubble planner! House work was to do laundry, to start the dehydrator, and to finish putting away things from my trip. Errands- I had nothing for today. And it is that easy! As you do them you could mark them off or whatever. Nothing hard to do, just a written reminder of the things you want to accomplish! I am loving mine so far!

And the grocery list, well, those are ALWAYS nice to have. This one even has reminders at the top, as well as a "don't forget your coupons" reminder! Like it!

One last thing. When I got the Bubble Planner in the mail, Bill, who I have been talking to, wrote a message hoping I liked the planner and after his signature wrote "Pr. 16:3". I instantly went to my Bible to look up Proverbs 16:3. Here is what it says:


Pro 16:3 "Ask the LORD to bless your plans, and you will be successful in carrying them out. "

How awesome! What a great company!

Currently, I try to just remember, but that is not working so well. I think a planner will definitely be more effective.

what a great planner! I didn't even know it was out there. I like the note pad...my to do list is always pretty long and there's lots of bubbles there!

Aim said...

I'm already a suscriber...:-)

Aim said...

I used to have a "family Planner" which was great in theory...but I was always the busiest and there wasn't enough room, so now I've switched to a $4 Wal Mart weekly planner. It fits in my purse and I haven't forgotten anything yet.

I love the bubble list notepad, the grocery list notepad and the bubble planner-so fun and useful!
christinaburrell@hotmail.com

SavannahsSmiles said...

It helps me to make a "To-Do" list every Sunday night for each day in the upcoming week-that way I can sort things out in my mind ahead of time.
I also have to have a cute binder (I am currently using a vera bradley planner) that makes me happy and organizes all my "to-dos".

Stopping by to let you know you're on my list of blogs I ♥ visiting!

Have a great Saturday!

What do I use to help me remember what I have to do each day? It depends on the day. Sometimes, I'm able to "just" remember. Other times, I make out a 'laundry' list of "to-do" items.

I wouldn't mind the grocery list notepad.

I write it all down on whatever paper that I can find and just start a pile!

Tina said...

Right now I just use a pad of paper for lists. I am an obsessive list maker! If I do something extra that isn't on the list, I'll add it just so I can cross it off :) It would be helpful to have more organization to my lists though.

I'd like to have the grocery list notepad

Brook said...

Hmmm...this is the second giveaway on your blogs that I believed I had entered, but I don't see my comments. So, I'll tr it again...
I use a small calendar with pockets in it to keep the paperwork I need to take with me to appointments. Then I make myself a daily list. Having everything in one location would sure be handy!
