rip off!!!
What a piece of garbage! I used this for online college, and it is falling apart, after only 3 months of use. It never even left the house! I can just imagine if I bought it for one of the kids! Oh, I miss those denim binders!

Didn't hold up
Bought 2 of these binders for a middle school child and the cover split from the binding within a month. Don't waste your money on these.

not a true "view" binder
Please do not let the title fool you...these are not "view binders". A view binder means that there is a clear sleeve on the front cover that you can place a coversheet in. These state that they are view binders, but they are just plain binders - not exactly handy for presentations, etc...

Good Price but not the best binders
I got a great price on these that is the main reason I am giving 4 stars but they seem to be a litte flimsy. Avery is much better

Not as expected
The books do look nice but they can't hold as much as they advertise...or you can't close them. I ordered extra pages which was a waste since I had to remove pages from what came with it. Also it doesn't hold DVD inserts...the holders are not wide enough. So I had to fold them to fit which took up more space. ! am mostly disappointed with this product.

Great look and space saver!
These are a great change to save space in our living room with my massive collection of dvds. I like the style and there are 3 colors to choose from. The label is not the easiest to remove and use, and it says it holds many more cds/dvds than in actuality. The 3 ring binder part holds more than the book will. When the binder is full, the book fans out but it holds about 15/16 pages full, less if you add a lot of the paperwork. There is also space to attach the booklets that come in the dvds. The pages come out easy for sorting and adding more movies/cds (I like to alphabatize).

Excellent product!
These binders are well made and look very stylish. It's allow us to get rid of the cd/dvd storage towers we had all over the house and remove other clutter. The books look great. We've ordered even more for the kids to store there video games.

Nice but Pricey
Quality of the outside binder is great! The photos are also deceiving, I bought them for DVDs, the pictures show you can insert the cover but its only fits the inside DVD material. Some DVDs don't have those, so my cover is either cut or folded -very time consuming.

Excellent - Yea!
Initially, I was worried about losing all the special pictures and information included in our DVD cases. However, new DVD's have few extras and I'm not missing the space hog cases - I'm totally over it. We've eliminated six shelves of cases and taken two surprisingly heavy black bags for recycling. Like most, we bought lots of DVDs in the past. We've cut back because we download most for a single viewing and now only buy the ones we'll actually watch repeatedly. Space saving already!

Anyway, I've received four Bellagio-Italia binders. All have been well made, attractive, and in the long run they'll be a good investment (free shipping is a plus). Though I bought extra insert pages, I could only add one in each binder because the additional width impedes the closing and display on shelves. For me, one package of inserts is enough for eight binders - I can store up to 52 discs in each binder. After reading other reviews, I was worried about unwanted dust on the DVDs, but there's a plastic envelope top for each dvd slot which helps keep the dvd's clean, so there should be few problems - I've had none at all.

The binders are leather-like (similar to a good faux leather purse) and present a clean unobtrusive appearance in any room. The black with white stitching matches the TV, amp, DVD player, etc. nicely. They look good in a small space and since my book collection has greatly diminished, there are "books" in the bookcase. It's much better than the helter skelter look of DVD cases.

As you can tell, I'm really pleased and highly recommend the Bellagio-Italia binders. I'm fixin' to buy about five more to finish up our current collection and provide space for those we'll buy in the future.

I am going into 8th grade and I need an organization system for my binders/notebooks?

Aug 15, 2008 by Jennie | Posted in Primary & Secondary Education

Last year I had a binder for each subject, but it made my backpack really heavy. Then I switched to one notebook per subject but i had no place to put my papers. I added folders to the notebooks but it just got really messy and hard to manage.

---

okay well for my grade 8 year (which i just had finished) i used:
like 1 inch or 1 and half inch binder for each class(perferibly different colours)
but normally for math, you will have to buy a larger binder (3 inch) around december ish to keep all of your papers in
and i left my binders at school every day unless if we had like a hige test than i would bring the whole binder home
and i had like a folio that was like a duotang but also had pockets in it
every class i would put all the papers i needed for homework in it, and at the end of the day i would always bring in home
and a really good tip is at the beginning of the year only keep like 20 or 30 extra sheets of paper in your binders, becasue then they get really heavy

and i found that the whole get one big binder thing didnt even really work for grade 6, cause you tend to just shuve papers in their, which makes it more messy, they break, they get full within like 1 or 2 months so you can't keep all of your notes, and they get to heavy

so the cheap plastic ones are a pretty good idea, cause if it breaks you can always buy another one, and you don't have to worry about lack of space because you don't have to zipper shut them

Overwhelmed and need better organization tools for high school?

Sep 26, 2007 by SignsofPoetry | Posted in Other - Education

I started school about 2-3 weeks ago, and already I'm a bit overwhelmed. Junior year is a lot more stressful than I thought it would be, and I'm not staying organized.

I originally planned on one organization system, but my English teacher requires us to use a binder. Also, the spiral notebooks and everything is not working for me right now. Normally, I cannot use binders, but I'm thinking that might be my only option. My main problem with binders is that I work best sticking things into folders. I cannot work well with having to open and close the rings...I end up just sticking the paper elsewhere and loosing it. I also learned that binders can overfill easily, and I don't really like that, as sometimes too-full binders can break, however I need to keep all of my notes and work IN ORDER somewhere so I can study for finals and the state tests this year.

I am wondering if anybody has any good organizational tips and techniques that may work for me. Thanks for the help!
I also don't work well with separate binders, so I need to keep everything TOGETHER, even if that means having the appropriate English stuff in the middle of the binder and other classes organized the way I want them to be.
CURRENT SYSTEM:
I purchased a package of pronged portfolios some three-subject notebooks for:

Math
Science
History
English
Health/Gym
Lunch
Study Hall
Elective

I know for a fact that Lunch and Study Hall will be a no-note class. Health is for one marking period, therefore it is a light-noted class (at least, generally health has been).

Math, Science, and History however, I expect a good amount of notes from. These three classes' notes will be each in a separate section of the three-subject notebook. If I run out of room in one section, I will simply start a new section in the second notebook. The pages will be numbered, and headed with the class name (subject) and date. I will do a similar thing with a single subject notebook with my elective, if needed.
(cont.)

On Fridays, I will remove the pages from the notebooks and place them in the PRONGED section of the folder for that class, along with other loose-leaf notes and classwork. In the front folder, I will keep class handouts and worksheets. In the back will be homework that is either completed and needs to be checked by the teacher, or needs to be done during the night. Large projects, such as a research paper, may be placed in a separate folder.

I will keep all folders in a filing case, so not to loose any. Loose-leaf paper will be in the front of the folders, and if I need to put a temporary manila filing folder for a project, it will be placed behind the portfolio for the class.

At the end of each marking period, I will remove the folders from the filing cases, and place in new folders, which will be empty with the exception of a few current assignments and notes that have been carried over from the previous marking period.
My english teacher is a little...psycho. She is very strict about all of her rules and everything.

I am using a binder for my english and folders for everything else, but I like having stuff together in ONE thing, and I also am learning that I don't particularly care for spiral notebooks.

Wow. Talk about overcomplicating things.

I've had a huge organizational problem my entire life, and by time I got to high school, I knew something had to be done. But like you, I hate binders with a passion. Still, by my junior year, I had it all figured out.

For me, I had a different colored folder for each class. I put notebook paper in one side of the folder, and all my work in the other side.
I had one thick spiral for math notes, and two smaller ones for science and history. They were the same color as their respective class folders, to make it easier to find.

And...that was it. The folder system worked wonders for me, because I would just take the folder out at the beginning of class, and since its thin and small, it just sat out on my desk the entire class, always ready for me to take out a paper if I needed to. No dealing with binder rings, or digging through backpacks. It was very simple, and effective.

As for your english class, I don't know why you're teacher would absolutely require you to have binders, but try talking to her and explain to her that you'd really rather not use them. If that doesn't work, just use 1 small binder for English, and folders for everything else.

Can you give me some tips on how to keep my binder clean?

Feb 04, 2008 by SuP eVeRyOnE!!! | Posted in Other - Education

I am in middle school and organization is a big thing. I really need some advice and ideas on how to keep my binder organized and clean.

---

Okay. So we all hate this problem. Loose papers falling out of your binder, and all that. Well, what you need is simple. First, you need to get yourself a good hard binder. A soft binder will only break and that wouldn't keep anything organized. Second, get yourself some dividers to divide your section of classes. ( Dividers can be bought anywhere ). Third, make sure you have a good amount of loose leaf paper in each section. Now, to organize it.. it's pretty much simple now. Everything should be organize and if not, you can always buy folders. The ones that you can put in your binders so that if your in a hurry to get out of one class, you can leave it in the folder, and when you get to the next class you can just put it in the section it belongs :) And now, I guarentee that you wouldn't have to worry about your binder not being organized. :)

To keep it clean, it's very simple. Get a BLACK binder. A white binder easily gets dirty.


Trust me, this will work. :D If you do by any chance choose my answer as best answer, thank you.

How do I find out if the non-profit organization I am treasurer of is incorporated or not?

Jun 27, 2007 by sunshine | Posted in Small Business

Ive been appointed treasurer of a small organization that holds fundraisers to donate to charities and inducts new members each year. The board of officers consist of all brand new members. The binders of papers we were given from the old board hold no official documentation of ANYTHING. We were told we were nonprofit. All I got was old bank statements and a checkbook. I was switched over to sign on the organizations bank account. Now I need an IRS ruling of tax exemption letter so I got our TIN from the bank and found out the IRS had record of us (but incomplete records) so they couldn't send me anything yet. They said they would research it and get back to me in 30 days. Now Im wondering how "official" we actuaIly are so I went to the court house and also searched for our Articles of Incorporation in the the secretary of state records and have found NO record of our organization. Is it possible to be a nonprof org without being incorporated. Does anyone hold record of us besides IRS?
I'm completely new at this and have been unable to contact any old officers who know anything besides that we are non-profit. Thanks in advance for any help!

What are some high school organization methods?

Aug 04, 2008 by Naterz34 | Posted in Other - Education

I need some organization methods that will help me start High School. I'm looking for some ways to organize all my classes, such as putting all classes into one binder or separating them? Also is it better to carry around my backpack with my stuff in it or just leave my stuff in my locker? Any other organization tips would be helpful also. Thanks

---

In my school, only those with a medical reason may use a locker, and they are not in convenient locations, and not very big...the only use they are is if you go by them often and/or before and/or after school and lunch.

Anyway, I am now a junior in H.S. myself, and here is what I do, and trust me, it's saved me many headaches since junior high:

-a 1" or 1/2" binder for every necessary subject (you won't need one for gym or other non-paper classes), or if you can, combine no more than two subjects per binder. I kept the classes with a lot of "paperwork" separate, like math, english, spanish, and biology. In addition, I had a 1/2" binder for architecture, being that most stuff was on computer, but still had paper/pencil stuff.

-loose paper, not spiral-bound. Teachers hate "frizzies" on the edges, and not many want to stop and tear them off of perforated pages. I just make sure I have plenty of paper for each binder.

-a pencil pouch...it's not fun rummaging for a pencil or pen when you've been handed a pop quiz or test.

-in your backpack (and I say stick w/ a backpack, not a bookbag or other...H.S.=heavy packs when going home), keep "academic" stuff in one pocket, lunch, etc. in another, cellphone/mp3/wallet, etc. in another, you get the idea. This is especially handy on gym-clothes-take-home days, such as Fridays for me when I did gym. Who wants their english binder to smell like gym clothes?

-keep a planner, no matter how annoying. When given essays, it helps to write down key factors that may cost you dearly if you forget, etc. We were told from day one in Jr.High that many of the students that succeed are those that use planners.

This is the main set of tips I can offer. Hope they help!
