I have been buying the Avalanche "Note Nook" pocket calendar for myself and each member of my family for 4-5 Christmases now.  We all love the pockets in the front of each month, for storing play tickets, birthday cards for months down the road, or as I use it, for keeping shipping records for my Ebay purchases and sales.  There are so many different design themes that will appeal to anyone.  I just wish Avalanche would bring back the zen Asian motif though.
