Anyone Know Where I Can Get a FREE Filofax Template?

Being a true Money-Saver, I object to the obscene amount charged for Filofax refills. It's not that I'm mean, but value for money, they're exorbitant for what amounts to a few sheets of paper. I'm sure I've seen websites where you can print off your own - anyone know of any? Many thanks in anticipation!

    I made my own contacts list up in Excel. I got fed up with the standard sheets Filofax did with only one Name, one Address and one Telephone number space for each entry and wanted to include things like mobiles, e-mail, web, dates etc for some of my contacts.

    So I spent an evening designing one on Excel to do and include exactly wanted it to. Managed to size the columns and the rows so that it perfectly prints out double sided on my printer.

    Now if I need to make a change I can just do it on the computer and print that particular page out again.
  • Thanks for the tips. What I was after really was the week to a view diary for 2009 - which doesn't seem to be on the website. But thanks anyway, and if anyone else can point me in the right direction would appreciate it.

    Not really the answer that you were looking for, but I have an A4 filofax and just scanned the blank sheets for contacts, to do list etc so I now just print them out when I need them - obviously the paper quality isn't as good as filofax's own but it's a lot cheaper for throw away sheets such as to do lists!!
  • WH Smith do their own version which I personally find better than Filofax original stuff

  • If you're prepared to spend some time browsing the site, the D*I*Y Planner is the place to visit. Also worthwhile is David Seah's blog, which has details of his 'Printable CEO Series'. Hope this helps.
  • Thanks for everyone's help. I'll follow up.
