8Lotus January Deluxe Box | Detailed Review | The Planner Aisle

[@ymartinez3]

I'm a budgeter and the monthly set up allows you to visualize and list what day bills are due and pay days. The bottom section is to list the total of the bills, estimated and actual. I can definitely see this working for some people. I can't just list my bills, I have to see them in a monthly calendar to better plan.

[@ThePlannerAisle]

Agree 100%! I have to have my bills listed on my wall calendar and my bill list in my budget planner to stay on top of everything.

I ❤ NOLA! My daughter is there attending Xavier. I hope you and your family are safe after recent terrorist attacks there.

[@ThePlannerAisle]

Aw good for her! I used to work close by 🤗 And thanks so much, I appreciate it. Such a sad situation for sure 😞

[@tgeddes7602]

I have to say im more tempted by these boxes than CPs recent boxes. They're full of useful items!

[@ThePlannerAisle]

Yes, there’s definitely more of a practicality to the 8Lotus boxes for sure!

Broken record, but so true! I love that this is a real planners sub box. As you said, dashboards and inserts 👌January is height of summer for me, but am looking forward to autumn when I can start cycling through the seasonal dashboards with the right month covers for me 😁

I love it! 💙

Hi Kel!! Happy New Year! I got the box and I love it. This is my first one. I love how it has actual planner items!! I do wish I had chosen A5 instead of Half Letter. I use HL for my work notebook so I will use some of the things in my work planner and others, like the journaling cards in my A5. Thanks for the video 😀

Happy New Year Tonya! And yay, I’m glad you love your first box 🤗

[@flowersarefun817]

You’re totally right about the budget planner. Though I would use it for my small biz. I’m a macrame artist and could easily fit expenses and income in this. And list out events or sales I’m doing. It could also be used for budgeting projects. As for the wellness goals - I do goals every month. So lots of sheets is needed. Also typically (for me) a bigger goal (launching a new DIY kit) has a bunch of mini steps that I have to flush out.

[@ThePlannerAisle]

Awesome ideas! 😊 And such a great idea for the wellness inserts 🥰

[@nala_b]

Great review, thanks for sharing. Happy New Year ❤

[@ThePlannerAisle]

Thanks! 🤗 Happy New Year to you too! 🎉

I love your videos ❤

[@ThePlannerAisle]

Thank you! 🥰

I love my subscription box, but I wish that she would include a sample sheet or simple instructions .

[@ThePlannerAisle]

That’s good feedback for the shop! Maybe that’s something they could work on for the new year 🤷🏽‍♀️

See this one just seems worth the money if deluxe spots open!! Crossing my fingers it does. Do you think thw classic is worth it or should I wait for the deluxe?

[@ThePlannerAisle]

Definitely wait for the deluxe. With the small price difference you’re getting a lot more practical items that you wouldn’t get in the Classic. And things that you can use directly in your agenda as well.
