Your printables are great, but I'd rather do my planning on the computer.

While Organized Christmas offers a full range of free printable planner pages, this site does not provide online planning tools or downloadable planner formats.

Two reasons: time and money. This free site is operated by one person and run on a financial shoestring.

To offer online planning tools--and permit thousands of users to create accounts, log on frequently and store data--we'd need extensive server resources, hired tech help, and warm bodies on the payroll to handle customer service.

To do so, the site would have to move to a subscription model, charging access fees in the range of $15 to $25 per month.

Similarly, offering downloadable planner software or documents is way beyond our site's capacity. To do so, we'd have to hire tech help to create them, solve issues of different file formats and operating systems, set up customer support options, and buy more server capacity.

Again, this kind of convenience wouldn't come cheap: we'd have to charge for these documents, requiring even more back-end investment in credit-card processing, storefronts and customer service. Think something in the range of $35 to $65.

At the end of the day, I'd rather keep things free ... and simple.
