Stopped by the new art supply store in Portland and their bullet journal section was a joke
They had a whole wall labeled 'journaling' but it was just fancy blank notebooks and calligraphy pens. The owner told me they sold out of actual dotted grid journals in a week and didn't plan to restock. It felt like they missed the whole point of the system being about function, not just pretty covers. Has anyone else seen a shop that just doesn't get what we actually use?

Classic case of a store chasing the aesthetic without understanding the tool. My local spot did the same thing, filled a whole display with sticker kits and washi tape but only stocked one brand of actual dotted journals. They don't get that the foundation is a functional layout, not just decoration.

Ugh, but what even makes a layout "functional" to them?
