I've been using a 
momAgenda desktop planner for years now (
see my post last year around this time)! I love my momAgenda desktop but each year money seems to get tighter  and tighter and I struggle with the product price ($43) and shipping costs. Last year  I was able to use a free shipping code but this year they are not offering free  shipping for Back to School and wanted to charge me $8.95 shipping - ouch! 
I decided to  go with the
 'new' spiral momAgenda ($24) because its cheaper and has the same  functionality that I love in the desktop {but it doesn't have the fun color  cover - boo!}. I went as far as I could to cut my cost by emailing the customer service  rep and got a special shipping quote of just over $5. But before I ordered I was  paging through the 
momAgenda FB page and noticed an older post about Staples  carrying their products. I promptly went to Staples.com and discovered the wall calendar  was almost half the cost at Staples! But they didn't list the spirals online .... so I stopped into a local Staples today and scored a spiral momAgenda for $19.99 - $10 less than I would have paid  through the customer service rep and over $30 less than I would have paid if I  purchased the desktop! 
I saved money and I still have all of the functionality  that I need to keep myself organized for the next year - YAY!! I'm off to write down all of our August and September events in my crisp new planner!
