Ohdanigirl Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 I need a heavy duty binder for ds. Last year we bought him a Mead Five Star 2" binder, but it was falling apart by April. He wants something thicker, durable, with a zipper. Extra pockets to help with organization would be fantastic. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoobie Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Staples Better Binders. Search for them here to find swoons over their greatness. Like Ticonderoga pencils, they are a legend. :) I buy dividers with pockets. ETA: I fail remedial post reading. Sorry. No zippers on Better Binders.

trulycrabby Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Staples Better Binders are the kilts and cupcakes of binders. :001_wub: Swoon-worthy! :001_wub: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohdanigirl Posted August 6, 2014 Author Share Posted August 6, 2014 Well, maybe he'll have to rethink the zipper. Thanks. What brand makes dividers with pockets? It is imperative that ds be as organized as possible. Well likely be in search of a student planner, as well. Just throwing that out there. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
school17777 Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 Recommending Better Binders. Just took in about 8 that needed traded in that got ripped up during the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candicane Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 I always go with Avery for my dividers. They have some with and without pockets (some are on both sides of the divider). For binders, I like just regular Heavy Duty Binders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohdanigirl Posted August 6, 2014 Author Share Posted August 6, 2014 Has anyone used the Case It 4" binder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MomtoCandJ Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 How does the binder trade in work at Staples? I have a bunch of the cheap ones that I want to trade in. Is there a limit? I know I need at least 7 of the better binders for my college classes, and have at least 6 binders to trade in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spryte Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 Another Better Binder girl here. We've got dividers with pockets - I picked them up at Staples. They are heavy duty poly stuff. We've used them for years. :) How old is your kiddo? Not sure if this would work, but I ordered a student planner from successbydesign, and DS likes it. It's 3 hole punched so it could theoretically be put into a big binder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohdanigirl Posted August 6, 2014 Author Share Posted August 6, 2014 10th grade. He is At an IB school, after having been home schooled through middle school. Organization has been a little bit of an issue, and he wants to focus on it before the Junior year grind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
