I'm A Sad, Pathetic Stationery Junkie.

I just ordered this set of B5 notebooks:

 

and these too:

    

 

For my wife, of course!

 

While I was at it, a Life Noble A4 notebook with ruled pages as well. I didn't jump on it last time it was offered at a similarly discounted price, and that offer was withdrawn within hours. Not holding off pulling the trigger this time.

To my mild surprise, these two orders — placed nine days apart — both arrived today, delivered (by Australia Post in each case) less than three hours apart.

 

 

 

 

At this point, without testing against known samples of each, I can only assume these Hobonichi Plain notebooks still use ‘old’ Tomoe River paper produced on Tomoegawa's “machine number 7” (not that I was ever a fan of that paper), as opposed to Tomoe River S by Sanzen.

OMG, did I just get a Moleskine notebook?

Oh!!!!!!!!!!!  Those Peanuts notebooks!!  Oh my! Those are so absolutely cool. I love the looks of them. Although the Snoopy snout looks more like the 1950s version, and I like the 1960s version of a longer snout the best.  Where did you find these?

The seller is Amazon Japan, by way of Amazon.com.au. I already got my wife a pack of Snoopy limited edition Zebra Sarasa Clip gel pens (which appears to have since sold out) and this notebook set:

      

for her birthday earlier. I also like the more modern Snoopy better, having grown up with Snoopy always looking like that; but there's something quaint about the vintage Snoopy that I haven't seen before, and I think she might enjoy that.

No, those are the contents of the goodies bag I got last night, compliments of Milligram. My wife was also a registered guest at the event, so she got her own bag, in which everything is the same except for the greeting cards; one of the cards she got was a birthday card with the message, ”Happy birthday, ya (bleep)!” and illustrated with a cactus. She has already joked that she should send that card to me, and I send that other card to her.

And thanks to A Smug Dill I found a set on Amazon, by the same seller:

So far none of the Snoopy notebooks posted have that long snout. A7 is kind of small. I need you Snoopy.  
 

But if you scroll down in the listing, it says they are B5 semi. 
 

 

I ordered a set of the Peanuts notebooks @lascosas found. I got my Mom a Sleep Number bed with head and foot raising.  I was looking at bed assist bars on Amazon already, so that was in the order too. You can only place bed assist options where they won’t affect the mechanisms that lift and lower the bed. Basically at the head and foot of the bed.

I found a different Snoopy notebook:

I went looking for the Peanuts Zebra Sarasa pens in Smug’s photo. Found them on Etsy where the price would be $26+ with shipping from Hong Kong.  I remembered the Peanuts items I bought earlier this year.  I recall not wanting all the Sarasa pens. Here is what I got:

I really wanted the Snoopy Astronaut pens, and got a single Sarasa with Snoopy and Woodstock at a typewriter. I also got the long eraser and washi tape. So evidently I need the notebooks only. This is correct because none of my many Peanuts customizable multi pens from Zebra and Pilot Hi-Tec-C Coleto are in the photos. 

 

Here is where some of my Peanuts items live.

Those were, and are, already in my Amazon shopping cart. Haven't yet pulled the trigger on them for AUD $11.40 (~US$7.25), though.

I checked what I paid, and it was $18.25. Wow! That’s a lot. I’d say buy them at the price you mentioned.

Okay, I will admit to lurking here for a while... but now that I too sprung for @Misfit's Snoopy find, I'll own up.

Just pressed the Buy Now button on them. Been a lifelong Snoopy fan and I do prefer the later, more goofy Snoopy...

Followed Penguincollector's citation for more Snoopy notebooks.  There could be an entirely new thread called I'm a sad pathetic Snoopy stationery junky.  Just from that one Aliexpress store there are 35 Snoopy notebooks!

[lascosas]

I promise to stop after this one.  The problem with all of the Aliexpress notebooks is the quality of the paper, binding, etc.  Unknown and probably questionable.  Nakabayashi Logical Air Notebooks on the other hand are known commodities, and in my opinion, very nice fountain pen friendly paper and notebooks, though I have the Logical Prime and these are Logical Air.  So here are 2 more of the B5, 30 sheet, 5 Snoopy notebook packs:

I was intrigued by these, but after seeing that one declares "YOU ARE A VERY LOVING PERSON AND YOUR LIFE WILL BE FILLED WITH SCENT," while another gives Sally's last name as Broww, I decided I could pass.

And one of the notebooks is "NOT FOOD"

Wow, Sally Broww.  Unfortunate typo, or something. Ms. Brown would not be amused.
