Did I miss something or did we not get one with our changeover kit?

I think we get one with our spring/summer changeover in feb. the current one is good til then.

No, we usually get it in the fall. I think they sent them separately last year in, I'm thinking, end of October or in November...

It usually comes from HO around Thanksgiving as our "Thank you" gift for being consultants

See... I'm just all kinds of confused!

I thought that we only got one a year in the Springtime! Why would they make the current one through February if they were going to send us a new one soon? Plus I have always paid $3 for mine I think! Maybe I am totally confused too!!

We do usually get one in the Fall - it used to come with our Changeover Package - but seems like the last couple of times it came later....BUT - did you notice on the new supply order form, you can order it "while supplies last"? Makes me wonder if we are on our own this time for ordering it? Good Thing I have my Franklin!

I was told that if you are a active consultant as of November you get a the spiral bound planner other wise you get the other cheaper one. I remember getting mine with the s/s changeover kit. I believe the one on the supply order is the cheaper non spiral bound one.

Look at the available till date on the planner in the supply order. It may be the current one.

The non-spiral one is the one they put in the superstarter kit and sell on the supply order. The spiral one is the one they send us in November which is dated December through February if I'm not mistaken - I am using the Covey planner this year.

They give us a 14 month calendar (jan thru feb of following year) for those that book shows months in advance. That way at your Nov. show when someone wants to book in Feb, you don't have to say "Let's wait til I get a new calendar" They don't send them in the spring cause the new year has already begun. We get a spiral one around Nov. but can purchase the FC one.

I don't think we have ever had to pay for the calendars. The $3 you are thinking about may be the shipping cost we are charged for our changeover kits.

I haven't been impressed with the FC planner. I rarely use the "weeks" in the back...just use the month part in the front. I am going to give it another try (using the entire organizational system) this fall. If I still don't like it I'll just go back to the free PC calendar.

I feel the same way! I wish I hadn't spent the money on it. Oh well. Good luck trying it again in the fall. I just can't get into the organizational methods they suggest.
