I am looking for a 10"x8" 3 ring binder.
Can anyone recommend one? Is this an unusual size?
Can anyone suggest an alternative if I cant get this size? I could spiral bind, but really i need the flexability to add in pages. My brain is dead & I cannot think outside the box (or binder!)

Three ring binders of any size are almost impossible to get in the UK. The only way I know to get them is by scrounging from American friends

The standard binders here are two ring. You can get four ring binders at office supply stores, but not three ring. Also our standard paper size is different - slightly longer and narrower - which means our paper doesn't fit three ring binders well, and vice versa. Anything that comes already hole-punched from the US will not fit comfortably into our binders .

I must say I prefer the three ring binders, which are much more secure. The two ring ones allow the paper to move around too much and it is easier to tear through the holes.

impossible to find!
it was also the size, that was not standard, also. Anyhow, I made my own with scrapbook papers, card & bookrings, so feeling quite virtuous now! LOL!
